    Default My first attempt at longarm quilting

    Well, here it is. My first real machine quilted quilt. It is a small lap quilt that Terribb from this board sent me to practice on. Hope she is happy with the panto that I chose to use. I really haven't had enough experience yet to be able to SEE what design should be used when machine quilting. If I were, I probably would have chosen not to do an over all design. Oh, well, too late now! Maybe someday I'll be able to READ a quilt.

    Your quilting looks nice. I know what you mean about picking the quilt design. I struggle with that, too.

    It looks really good to me. I like the panto that you chose. I dream of a longarm, but have to make do with my little Juki & frame. I do envy those that can break down a quilt & know exactly how to quilt it.

    It looks good to me. Congrats on the longarming. I love it and having way too much fun. I did quilts for friends taking the quilts they would have stuck in a closet as UFO's when I was learning.
