Totally agree with Paper Princess--I love my long arm (bought used in April) and even though my learning curve is still pretty steep, I love it. And the show I attended this weekend really brought home the fact that a quilt isn't really a quilt until the quilting is done and the quilting makes SUCH a difference! A quilting friend said it was like the difference between throwing on your clothes in the morning, and taking the time to put on some jewelry, a scarf, complimentary shoes, etc! I just love the creativity in long arming!
