David Taylor is wonderful in teaching you how to love, love, love the process.

Yesterday was my first attempt on a longarm. I rented some time at a local shop. At the end of the day when I was trying to finish up, the thread kept breaking. I see now I must have been going too fast. Afterwards, I realized there was a speed adjuster...that would have helped me as I was trying to not to go too fast.
