      Don’t be just yet. I’m struggling today.

    Remember to breathe! :-)
    I found it interesting that you put your top on a roller~ I always let mine float.
    Hope the struggles are over and you are having fun! :-)

    Can’t wait to see what you do with it. Will she do a feather pattern?

      No. She most definitely will not.

      Actually, I was going to give it a try, but as I got to the area I realized that it would be impossible to see the quilting (black thread on black print). I decided to do a vining leaf instead, and I’m glad I did. The part I thought would be easy (bottom left corner of the practice piece) is turning out to be agony. I didn’t think about the fact that I have to sew directly over a thick seam intersection, so it’s looking a little rough. I can’t stop, though. Mom is going to hand sew the binding down and we have to have it finished in about a week. Must move forward. I’m almost halfway through.

    I am just a beginner at long arm quilting. But, I am excited to learn. I appreciate all of your photos and advice.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts! I try to reply to every comment, but sometimes it takes a few days. And sometimes, well... it has been known to drop off the radar. I'm easily distracted by shiny things.
