Oh what sweet torture! Hopefully, this will not be an extended event. I can't wait to hear all about your first run.

Did you ever do any of the longarm classes at Pieceful Quilting?

I would go in and stroke it often saying, "soon my pretty, soon."

Silver Needle

While waiting to use your machine, practice on paper or a wipe off board. Hold your pencil straight up and down and keep your wrist off the table. Work on developing a smooth pattern for a meander that just keeps your hand moving without stopping to think about it. then go on to practice other continuous designs you would like to use. This will give you a chance to start developing muscle memory.

I took an online class on feathers and we did a lot of drawing first. It made a big difference when we went to stitch out the designs.

I'm sorry to hear that your new toy is there safe, but you can't play with it.. I like the idea that Silver needle has about practicing.. It beats watching channel 12 News.. They are evacuating the area where one of my offices is, as it is in a beach area. I hope I don't have to leave the house.. At least I remembered not to park the car near a tree..
Try to enjoy the storm.
