This quilt got me started in the longarm process
 
4 Attachment(s)
We have an auto repair shop, and one of our parts suppliers gives us points based on our parts purchases. When we were ready to buy our Innova longarm, my husband asked the owner of the parts company whether we could redeem some of our points in cash for the down payment for the machine. He said yes, if you'll make me a quilt. So he did, we bought the machine, and now I have made his quilt. This one was fun to do. It took me a long time to pick out the fabric, decide on a pattern (which, by the way, I saw on this board), and then get the quilt completed. But it is on the way and should be delivered tomorrow. I'm not happy with the picture quality. It looked much better before I resized it.

Thanks for the beautiful quilt. I also have panels and I will use this layout for my son's quilt. I have not cut into the fabric as I was not sure how to place it. Thanks for the idea. BrendaK
