    Default LA quilting site or forum

    I would like to find a site or forum that deals only with the techniques and problems of LA quilting. Can anyone suggest such a site?

    If you own a gammill you can join gammill owners on yahoo( A yahoo group). It is a great site to learn a lot about the quilting and your machine...good luck.

    yahoo has a number of groups. One is for longarmers in general (called 'longarm'). Others are for specific longarms, such as Innova. You can ask questions and get answers, just as on this site. Go to http://groups.yahoo.com/ and type 'longarm' in the search box and you will find several.

    I went to the APQS site, just to browse around. They have a section " How many quilts made before you pay off your machine" It was quite interesting and needless to say I will be ONE HUNDRED and Ten before I ever make enough to pay off my machine. Especially when friends ask you if you can do them one more favor... I know this is off topic, but, your topic took me there.

    I like the apqs forum and mqresource. I also belong to the innova yahoo groups since that is the machine I own. All of them are wonderful and the people are inviting and friendly and very helpful.
