Both are beautiful, I like the cheater quilts and your quilting is great. I only do a large stipple on my DSM and I love it. I don't have any desire to learn fancy stitches.
Sounds like the perfect weekend! Always great meeting a new quilting friend and creating wonderful memories. You are coming along great on your quilting!
These are nice looking cheater panels and a perfect way to road test your new long arm! What a nice weekend it must have been for the two of you. And these quilts look great
First off I think it's wonderful you two met in person! And using cheater quilts to practise using your long arm was a great idea. Where did you ever find such nice cheater quilt material?
