I've been a longarm quilter for 7 years and accepted long ago that I don't do fancy stuff. I do meandering, which has my own flair, and my customers like a lot, and I also do pantographs. Custom work is so time-consuming and I really don't make a profit, compared to meandering or pantographs. I don't have a Statler Stitcher with my Gammill, so I figure the fancy work can go to longarm quilters who have a computerized Statler.
