First quilt using new long arm
 
2 Attachment(s)
I am pretty happy with it for my first time using my Tin Lizzie. I know my swirls need some practice but I am really enjoying myself so its not a problem :-) well I will run out of tops soon. Thanks for looking the quilt is a kit from Starr Fabrics, I didn't like the border that came with it so ended up leaving it as is.

nicely done... the quilting is very artsy looking :)

Love your fabric color choices! The quilting looks fine. It's not easy to quilt free hand. Kudos to you!

Your quilt is beautiful! I love the colors and your quilting is very good, especially for the first time on your long arm!

I would be happy to send you a ton of tops to practice on :o) With backing and Batting :o) I love making the tops but am in the learning process of quilting them on my home machines, No Long arm YET!!!

It looks good to me. Practice makes perfect but I don't think quilts were meant to be perfect. Looooove the colors.

Great job!

What a thrill it must have been to complete your beautiful quilt. Keep up the good work.

debcavan 04-15-2013 07:54 AM

What a beautiful top. My your swirls are so curvatious. It takes awhile for you to build in your muscle memory on your machine. Mainly though it takes awhile to relax and breathe normally. That is just a matter of a little time. I am so happy for you to have your own machine. I got mine five years ago and have never regretted it.

You are off to a really good start. Your quilt is beautiful.

Pretty quilt, and the swirls look fine to me! Great job.

hudgoddess 04-15-2013 12:00 PM

I'll add my name to the list. If you need some practice, I have a few quilt tops that need to be finished! I'll even sweeten the offer by bribing you with a trade of doing your binding! Nice job! Enjoy playing with your new toy!

Motorcyclemad 04-15-2013 01:17 PM
