longarm update
It’s been a few months, so howabout a longarm update! I’ve been spending about half my time in the shop and half my time quilting on the longarm. We’ve updated our Longarm Quilting Services Info Sheet with more specific information and a sample of the intake form so you can know exactly what to expect when you’re ready to have something quilted.
And here’s a few shots of recent quilts.
This one featured the Neptune fabrics, so I did watery quilting–bubbles and swirls.
Sneaking in some hearts…
Pebbles to push those triangles out.
This one is actually the back of the quilt. It was an especially fun one, the April wall-hanging from Calendar Quilts with a thread-doodling sort of style to complete the applique. (Here’s the front.)
Sometimes I actually get around to quilting our own shop quilts, too. This one is called Unfurnished, and has a bunch of Kona solids along with prints from Tufted Tweets, which Kathy pieced improvisationally. (There are kits too!)
I ended up quilting each wonky rectangle differently, and putting random stripes in the white space.
There are a bunch more photos in my Longarm Flickr pool. There’s good stuff to come too, we’ve got some Halloween quilts in the queue I’m excited about!
