Is there a section on the site that lists all the long arm quilters that take in work? I just bought one not too long ago (remember MEME???). I'm not looking to creep into your customers, I just want to get some ideas for myself for when I get the practice one off the frame. I would love to see all the ones that you have done for customers. Looking for some simple patterns to start out with. I absolutely love the look of meandering and I'm getting pretty good at it, but I really do think I can use my talents (not too condeeded am I?) to do other patterns. I do not have a Q-BOT, so everything would be free style. Thanks in advance.

Yes, there is a listing in the classifieds.

Found it. I wasn't subscribed - had a hard time figuring that one out, but succeeded. Now I just need another 5 hours in the day to look through all of these.

MinnieKat, I love your avatar. Would you please share with me on where you got the pattern. I have some wildlife panels that would look very nice in this quilt. Yours is gorgeous. I just hope mine would turn out as good. Thanks in advance. Patti

I have seen lots of very nice quilts done here. Also if you look at MQReources (stands for Machine Quilters Resources) there are LOTS to look at. I get lost looking at the beautiful stuff for hours.

I saw your reply asking for this pattern. I made one of these quilts for my grandaughter and also created a matching one for her dolls. I believe I still have the pattern. If you pm me with your address I will look and mail a copy to you.

Next step...swirls! Try doing practice swirls, try to keep them the same size, then make larger ones....I went from meandering to swirls...then leaves. It takes lots of practice but you can do it! Main thing is, have fun and stay relaxed, and KNOW WHEN TO WALK AWAY. Don't ask me how I know all this....lol.
