New to quilting

I have sewn for years and even did some quilts, but up till last year, did not know what a 1/4 inch seam was. My whole upstairs has been turned into a quilting studio. Bought a long arm sewing machine, a Sunshine 16. I tried one at the Atlanta Quilt show and had to have it. What has been your experiences with one? Ginny Potter

You sound like me....I started quilting about 10 years ago and I tried a longarm and had to have it....I only quilt for myself and family for the most part, however, this year I am looking at quilting for others as the year progresses. I have to finish up my items first and then I can open up to others....LOL....
