I’m doing anything 75 inches and under myself and sending anything bigger to a local long arm quilter.
I’m posting photos of three of my quilts all FMQ quilted by me.
Beautiful work!!! I love them all, but that teapot one is my fave. How long did it take you to master FMQ? Mine is terrible.
I spent 16 hours quilting the Tea Pot quilt and i did it in two days because i needed to bring the quilt to Chicago with me for my MIL and doing so much in such a short time brought my skill level way up. I did flowers and leaves all over that quilt. I don't have any close ups of the quilting on this computer but i will post some latter of it. I was very happy with the quilting. I alway have a little trubble with the center of one's this big (about 76 inches wide) so much material to manage.
