Wow! Good for you!

Congrats on the long arm!

I think this would be real fun swap, but I'm another that is not in a good situation to participate in a swap. Currently have the house far sale so don't want any commitments.

With your long arm, one thing to consider is floating the top instead of rolling it on the front. Once I started floating my tops, the whole process got way simpler. I have a cord with sliding clips I use to keep the top square as I advance the quilt.

I'm impressed with your first long armed quilt. congrats on the new addition to your quilting world!

I am interested but a BOOM Swap just started in the same time frame.

each set the same?
 

Hi,
Can each set I send be the same...as long as there are no duplicates within the sets?

Thanks!
Michelle

Absolutely, Micbelle! That would be wonderful!

I missed that sign up and was pretty bummed. Hopefully next time I'll be able to join in!

Best of luck on the sale! Last I remember hearing was that you were doing a complete remodel of your house; I didn't realize you were selling it too.
I've thought about floating the quilt top, but my kiddos (ALL of them!) think that seeing a quilt draped over anything is an invitation to hug it and play peek-a-boo with! I have ordered Red Snappers to hopefully help with the loading process. I know one thing for sure, I don't like pinning it!

lovely to have littles around. I miss it after raising 14 children, all my grandchildren live far away too. You will like the red snappers. I do and was trained on pins.

So I might try and sign up on the last moment. I want to be home and see how the house block works for me. I will be home on the 11 th.
