McTavishing was my solution in learning how to quilt and eventually I was able to relax and practicing also paid off. Now I can comfortably do other folks quilts, and get paid for my services.
I have also helped others by letting them practice on my long arm, I purchased sheets from the second hand shops and set up the machine, then the ladies would show up, play on the machine for an hour or so, and once the sheet was full of quilting, I would cut up the sheets, put on a binding and take them to the pet shelters and SPCA, they were also very happy to have fresh beds for the animals - and no one complained about the quilting.
Here are some samples of McTavishing, and Leah Day has videos as well.
