    Thank you so much for your kind words. This was quilted on the Baileys machine and my friends floral blocks were just prints from a Joanns kit. I have spent a lot of time doodling while dreaming about a longarm and I think it paid off.

    A little bit of practice, mostly meandering on the longarm. I have done a lot of quilting on my domestic machine tracing patterns and that helped alot with the curves.

    You already know I think you did a super job. But, I had to tell you again. I hope I learn as fast as you did. Keep up the good work. You'll be a Master before long.

    Wow, that's good. My Pro Stitcher Avante 18 should arrive Monday or Tuesday (still have to clear a space in the basement)
    I'm terrified that I will not be able to create something worth looking at. You did a great job.

    You did GREAT, I hope that IF I get the opportunity to try a long arm, that I do half as good as you did for your first!
