Hi Mary....no way are you going to do this on an Amaya...I have 2 =20
suggestions...
around here Quilting is a big home hobby/business....and a small shop =20=
just opened up that can do the quilt assembly sewing-I guess their =20
sewing machine has a 4' span or something-newspaper did an article on =20=
it. That would be perfect for sewing an applique on to the middle or =20
even full flag.
Another option-nearby is a hang glider field/park...they also =20
construct and repair their own hang gliders. They have a commercial =20
sewing machine-an old unit-but I think it has about a 3' nose on it-=20
sent other people down there before the quilter opened up that needed =20=
large things resewn.
The only other way it is going to be done is a heatseal logo-I"ve =20
done these before by heating in sections on my 16" platen and then =20
overlapping after everything is tacked down.
Good luck-hope this helps.
Roland
