Squares Quilting

Can I machine quilt squares and then put together to form quilt?

I don’t have a long arm quilting machine and I’m trying to figure out an easy to way to make a quilt (and machine quilt it)

You don’t need a long arm machine in order to machine quilt. As long as the sewing machine has a walking foot or darning foot, you can quilt it. Use a regular foot to piece together the quilt top. make the ‘sandwich’, and then starting in the middle of the quilt, quilt either straight lines with the walking foot, or free motion quilting with the darning foot. If the quilt is lap size or twin size, just roll of the edges to make it easier to maneuver while quilting. Anything larger than twin might get a little bulky and you’ll need some patience to keep stopping and pushing the quilt around, but it can be done. I’ve machine quilted a few queen size quilts on a regular quilting machine that only had an extension table. A little frustrating at times, but it can be done.
