I am in no way unhappy with my HQ Sweet 16! The store owner wants all employees to be trained on Louie so we can help customers who come in to use him if we are working that day.
I've been working an extra day at my LQS as needed. Yesterday was one of those days. In the morning we took down all of the Christmas samples we had hanging around the store. I quilted up one of these as my practice piece.
Since this was my first time using a real long arm on a frame, I just did an all-over fairly large meander. I wanted to get comfortable with how the machine moves before trying anything more intricate.
I will bind this and then I don't know what we will do with it. Maybe sell it or donate it to charity.
