I posted here before about the LQS and my issues with it. Mainly that I was uncomfortable about going because they would discuss the fact that they were behind on their bills with me, they tried to make me feel bad about buying a new machine from a dealer instead of a used one from them (that was there on consignment), and they said they would never get any of the new brighter lines of fabric in. This week I stopped in to ask about longarm basting (they don't have a longarm machine anymore though) and there was a new owner. She said she's already ordered some of what she considered brighter color lines but they won't be delivered for a few months yet. I'm hopeful. 8-)

I am glad for you that there is new owners. please tell me, do most LQS do basting on Long arm for customers at a price?

I have no idea if they do. I first heard of it here so I'm going to check a couple of the non-local shops and see if they do it.

The new owner at this shop had never heard of it but then she doesn't own a longarm so that may be why. I did have a long discussion with the former owner about how much trouble I have basting due to not enough room here and she never mentioned using a longarm to do it so I wonder if she knew about that. She was a fairly new longarm owner.

Happy for you!

Probably depends on the area, in 10 years I have only basted 1 quilt to prepare it for hand quilting. And no inquiries about doing more.
