    Hi there PamQuilts,
    If you ever need some practice pieces, I just might be able to provide you a few. I think you are doing a great job and it won't be long before we'll be hearing about this talented new long arm quilter out there that we know when she first started FMQ!
    Keep us posted and I'm serious about sending you a piece or two to "practice" on.

    That is great! I actually practice on a huge dry erase board. I lay it down on a table and practice my designs that way. As soon as I get the hang of it, I am ready to go quilt it. My mom made me watch the pajama quilted dvd and that's how she does it. It's a good dvd to watch to learn new designs.

    if you had a children's quilt it would be cute to see little stick people in the quilting. think how much fun a kid would have looking for them lol
