Hi, I just got a used APQS Liberty, she is great! I am over whelmed as I am teaching myself about the machine, trying to practice on muslin with batting, any troubles come my way I try working them out, I am watching videos, reading etc. I have not put on a quilt yet because I am scared of ruining it. I have several questions for all of you: how do you get the ends you mount to frame cut so they are straight? I like to do big quilts so in cutting my muslin at 108 inches is challenging me. I fold several times then cut, am I doing that wrong? I can't seem to get good c's when I practice! Is that normal? I only have my first practice piece on and it's going to fast because by the look of my work I have a whole lot of practicing to go yet so I will have to put another practice piece on. How did all you guys begin this journey? Anybody with any suggestions of how to begin would be appreciated!
