I'm glad you figured all that out. It took me a little longer than one quilt and I still am learing with every quilt. I would suggest you try to find a Support group for your machine. Yahoo Groups has a group for about everything. I belong to several different ones that cover my machine to different blocks of the month. I've found that most are very friendly and willing to help with even the silliest of questions. Theres also tons of longarm forums on the internet just like our lovely QB. Its never fun to have to learn by our mistakes and having someone to ask when you want to pull your hair out is always nice. Congrats on you new machine and knowledge! Have fun playing and learning!
