I've been so busy actually quilting things for folks that I haven't had time to share with you how it's going. The short answer is, "It's going great!" I'm still building my long arm quilting business and getting the word out to folks that I'm doing long arm quilting now, but I'm happy with how it's going so far. I'm not swamped with quilts to do for customers, but I am getting a few each week. So it's manageable!
The first quilt I have to share was made by Sherrie L. She is a part-time local resident.
Sherrie chose this fun modern style pattern. It is one of the designs that comes with my Bernina Q24 Q-matic program. I call this one "bubbles" because it's real name is just some letters and numbers.
Another quilt from Sherrie L.
For this one Sherrie chose a floral pattern. It's not quite a poinsettia, but it's close enough.
This quilt was brought to me to quilt by Vicki B. It was made by a relative who has since passed away.
I picked an allover floral design to coordinate with the embroidery blocks. This quilt was huge! And Vicki doesn't sew so I finished the binding for her too. The quilt was a challenge to long arm because the workmanship was not the best. None of the sides were straight. Some of the blocks were larger than others. Puckers were just pieced right in to the seams. Yet, it still turned out really nice!
This last one was made by Duchess R. I've quilted several things for Duchess. She likes geometric quilting designs and bold thread colors.
She picked this lime green thread and a design called Cottontop. It's one of the designs that came with my machine.
