Yes.... I quilt.... often.... Made a quilt for our tent trailer that moved up when we purchased the Aframe.

The denim one is nothing special, just wanted to get something hardy out there. Working on another denim quilt (oh, two) that will be more interesting. Off to retreat this weekend to make some significant progress on one. The other top is done per pattern,

but I want it bigger so I will be growing it. But I can't grow it until after I teach the class that is based on the pattern....So, early March I'll be able to finish that one. I like the denim for the trailer 'cuz its really warm and really hardy. At guild I asked for used jeans to be able to complete one quilt and received enough that I had to come up with more ideas!
Have you tried sewing on a treadle sewing machine? Would it be just the right amount of gentle workout for arthritic feet? Using a treadle is sooo soothing. I don't make all my quilts on a treadle, but I love to use it when I need to slow the pace a bit.

And I've been known to bring my handcrank sewing machine camping with me in the Aframe when camping without electricity.

Made this one entirely on a handcrank for my daughter, most of it completed while camping.
