All these quilts are beautiful. My Granddaughter wants me to make her a quilt using the apple core pattern. Was it hard to put all those curves together without a lot of pukering? Did you use an acrylic pattern or make your own?

I am loving it! But then again, I dont' have anything to compare it too :lol: . I was never even brave enough to try quilting on just my sewing machine. The hardest part is that by the time I get to the end of a queen size quilt there really is just barely 4" of quilting room. So far I have only meandered and done some swirls (not sure what to call this..lol) on these quilts. Eventually I want to get some smaller panto's and try them.

I do need to invest in the stitch regulator in the near future. I think it will help when I venture into the pantos. And, if I ever have a bigger house with more room..AND the money to get it, I already can tell that I will move up to either a LA or a "longer" arm, Ha!

DO IT! You are so very talented ~ all your quilts are fabulous!

Those are some terrific quilts! I still have not gotten brave enough to figure out how to put my quilt pieces on the frame . Don't know why it seems like such a challenge. I need help of a patient experienced frame quilter.It is wonderful to see your beautiful quilts all done.
