    Here's some pics of the first quilt that I did on my new longarm machine. I just did a meandering pattern all over it to get used to the machine. And I like it! :D It was a lot of fun quilting it on the longarm. This pattern is the Super Fast Jelly Roll Quilt pattern that others have been doing here on the QB. Mine measures 62" x 72". I wanted something that would be quick and easy to piece in case I messed up the quilting. Luckily, it went o.k. :) The jelly roll collection is called Wildflower Serenade II by Kansas Troubles.

    I've been wondering how it was going. You, as always, make it look easy!

    knew it wouldn't be long before you posted something. And as usual- your first attempt looks professional. Do you ever make mistakes in your quilting?

    Does the machine have a stitch control to be sure they remain the same size no matter how fast you go?

    You are such a natural at all this quilting stuff. You make it look too easy, and I for one know it's not always that easy. Great job on your first longarm project.
