First Custom Quilt Job
 

I should start out by saying that I got my long arm for Christmas this past year so I am still learning. I have done well with pantographs and wanted to venture out. A friend of mine gave me this night and day quilt to work on. My hubby bought me a ruler set for our anniversary (in exchange for car parts for his 64 Chevy truck :) - anyways I tried it all out and was very happy with how it turned out. I did use an idea that greenfairyquilts showed on her sight. She is magnificent and I enjoyed trying something out she taught. I hope you like it.

Very lovely quilt. Beautiful quilting.

The quilt is beautiful and so is the quilting. I am glad that you are feeling adventurous enough to try this. Very nice.

Looks like you did a wonderful quilting job on your first venture! Keep it up and you'll have lots of quilts to quilt for people! Beautiful!

That came out beautiful. Love the day and night pattern!

very very nice and you haven't been at it too long. no where for you to go but up and better woot!! am jealous, would love one, but know that it will not happen. congratulations.

You are living my dream. You did such a good job. I really like those diamonds in the border with the little cury-q's. I have a Juki & frame, but dream of a long arm. Are there classes that you take (besides practicing on your own) or books to learn from? And I'm in awe of the Green Fairy, too.

Well done! I am still trying to get those curves even and yours are wonderful!

Just beautiful !! If you're still in your "learning curve" ---- you are already way at the top of the class !!! Great work !!

Great !!!!!

Awesome work!

Good job!!

you are doing a great job.. looks wonderful...

You did a beautiful job - I have a longarm too - it looks so easy until you try it - its very difficult (at least for me it is) so I congratulate you - you look like an old pro - I love Green fairy too - I look at her quilts and just dream to have just a little bit of that talent. Looks like you are going to be a great long-armer...

you both did a wonderful job. Looks to me like you've mastered the art.

Very pretty. Your quilting looks great and I think it gives the quilt movement.

That is awesome!!! You did a wonderful job on it.

Very nice.....like your friend's quilt too!

very nice quilting

You did agreat job.

I am self taught. I do look at the internet videos to get help or suggestions and I am part of a long arm group here in South Carolina but I do it on my own.

It is not easy. It is hard and sometimes I get discouraged. I did use rulers for this and I have to tell you that I love using them and would recommend trying them. Just makes it a little smoother.

I got the beginner set from quilter's rule. I didn't really know what to get and it looked like it had so much variety. I used a couple of the rulers with this.

What longarm did u get?

It's wonderful! Looks like you're getting the hang of the LA.

looks like your coming along quite nicely. You're definitely getting the hang of the rulers! I'm also self taught. Like you, I watch videos & read as many books as I can get my hands on. I now can look at different designs & break them down into manageable sections. It gets easier with time & practice.

Gorgeous work! Love how your quilting transforms the quilt.

The quilt is lovely and the quilting job very nice too.

very nice. interesting pattern ....:-)

Two of my favorite colors displayed in a beautifully pieced and quilted quilt. You're doing great things with your long arm.

FANTASTIC !!! Love the quilt & the quilting.
