WOOOHOOOO! I know how happy you are. AND, I know how much fun you are going to have. Here is something you need to know right away, if you don't already................PPP! I have to get back to PPP. It's so much fun.
CONGRATULATIONS!!!! :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

CONGRATS!!! Enjoy it!!

so nice of DH to build you a house to go with your Gammill!

I can feel your excitement all the way up in MN!

Good for you! Waiting to see pictures. Enjoy.

Ummm, what is PPP?

Pam, I'm glad you asked what ppp is...I was wondering the same thing. LOL

Practice, Practice, Practice.

You can't just get on a Longarm (LA) and expect to do incredible stuff. In one year, I've gone thru 3 bolts of muslin, 12 charity quilts and 6-8 of my own quilts to improve my skills, in addition to doing customer quilts. PPP is one way we LAer's get better. If I want to try a new technique before I put it on a customer quilt, I try it on the muslin, then do a charity quilt with several new techniques, then put it on the customer quilt if I feel I can do the quilt justice. It may take 4 hours to quilt your quilt, but we do many hours of research, classes and PPP before we touch your quilt.

And then I see a post where someone paid $20 for quilting on a baby quilt ***with batting***, and I just want to cry!!! That quilter could not have made even minimum wage, much less any return on that $$$$$ investment in her machine.

Sigh......

How wonderful!!! You even have a place to sit and take that needed break! I love the Gammill. Wish I had the space. I really like all your windows, the view of the lake , etc. Well chosen! I am envious but guess I will continue with Kathy's Kreations to do my large quilts. I never can crank out that many quilts to justify owning one. HAVE FUN!!!

WoooooHooooo! I know how happy you are. Now you need to PPP. I love your room. Mine is in our garage :cry:
When will you be opening up shop? Did you get a Statler Stitcher too?
I'm really happy for you!!!!! :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

And this is the quilt machine that goes with the new studio
