‍️I TRIED TO PIECE A QUILT ON MY LONGARM. GOOD IDEA OR NOT?

That is so beautiful. Inspires me

I really wish we could like beautiful fabrics like this in Perth Australia

It looks lovely now it's finished . I am just starting out with my longarm and also had an issue with too short a backing !! I think because as I put it on the frame the frist time and then had to repin it I got it the wrong way round ...aaagh . I am really carefull now

I tried spraying and lightly ironing to get creases out… it shrunk the fabric in an extreme uneven way, making it entirely unusable. And the creases remained.

Awww. I think yes so much should be forgiven. It’s quite a nice piece.

Oh no, my dear, you did many of your listeners a favor. One, you are my favorite quilting resource, not only are you the best but because of your honesty, sense of humor, creativity and resourcefulness. I will never have a long-arm machine but you encourage us to stick to it, and I really need that. Thank you. The quilt turned out wonderfully and you're right, we can't see the boo boos. ❤

I had no idea this could be done this way. Amazing.

I love how that quilt turned out❤

You worked hard but the quilt is awesome

I love the fabric’s theme.

So interesting. It looks like it will fit the purpose, but perhaps not up to your usual standards. Mostly, it just looks awkward and frustrating to manage on the longarm. Thanks so much for sharing the process. I'll know not to try it. 😃

Your quilt turned out beautiful & will offer you some great memories Karen,. 🥰

It looks beautiful

Your ambition is admirable. You always stretch yourself!

Real life problems when making a quilt!

Another thing to consider: don't be too hard on yourself!

I absolutely love this quilt!! I made a quilt 22 years ago with my sister but did not make any since. I have recently picked up quilting again. I have some panels and was going to probably sell them. This helped me to see I might be able to make something pretty interesting. I have come up with my own pattern for sensory blankets for those with autism and dementia. I have struggled for about 3 years trying to figure out how I was going to do that until I saw your quilt as you go. That along with your binding video I have now made 2. Thank you for all of your knowledge and sharing your failures.

Hi Karen. Thank you for sharing this adventure. The quilt layout and colours were very successful. ⚘️

Really cute quilt!

Thanks for sharing your projects with us, troubles and all. I also bought some of these fabrics on our Alaska cruise. I've been "saving" them, but now you've motivated me to get them sewn into a quilt.

I really need to use my long arm. Maybe this video will inspire me to use it. It's just so intimidating.

The work of illustrator Barbara Lavallee is wonderful in these print fabrics! I recognize her work from the book Mama, Do You Love Me? By Barbara M. Joose. I’ve been a librarian for 35 yrs. this was one of my favorite books to read to my own girls. Your quilt turned out Beautiful!! Love it❤️

I found it interesting that you attempted to do a quilt as you go on the long arm. Now that you have done it, I am not sure I will try this method 😂❤❤❤.

Sometimes it’s the ones you struggle with that you learn the greatest. Regardless of your struggles, I love the quilt!

Beautiful I’m glad you were able to finish it

It's OK ... From this far ... I can't see the mistakes :)

The quilt is just beautiful! It's always good to try new things even if only to discover we never want to try it again. Thanks for sharing with us!

Looked at your quilt from the distance, it looks good. For my patchwork is a bussy, neatly sewing. There´s no need to be quick. I often get comments like: I admire your patience. Happy sewing.

It turned out beautifully. Would you make another quilt on the longarm?

This quilt turned out beautiful!! What a challenge !!!
YOU DID IT!! 🎉🎉🎉

Thank you for sharing a quilt that did not go as planned. In the end your quilt looks like it would be great to keep warm around the fire. I love the colors and simple design.

it's beautiful!!!!

I love it!

so beautiful sorry it got to you but remember you were trying something new and results are amazing

I love this quilt/campfire blanket. ❤❤❤

All that work paid off really well!! It looks amazing 🥰🥰🥰

That is
some of the cutest fabricI have ever seen. The quilt is amazing, even with the set backs.

Love your Video's, I see on your long arm you are using I think magnets, how do you set those up? do you have a Viedo on those?

Thank you for sharing this endeavor with us. Sorry it was troublesome. It does photograph well, and is like the most delightful panel quilt I’ve seen. Harmonious colors and print. I just love the way they’re all stacked up next to each other. I think you have an incredible eye for the detail of this lovely quilt. Again and I’d like to reiterate how lovely your quilt is. Sorry it was troublesome. Do appreciate your candidness. We can all learn. Thank you for taking a leap of faith. Well done Quilty woman. ❤

Good job on completing. I guess I would have just written it off and lived the rest of my life with regrets because it is a beautiful panel and fabrics.

Loved your quilt, so pretty and colourful. No mistakes visible!!! PS really interested in your progress on the quilted coat project. No pressure!!! luv n hugs, Helen, Adelaide South Australia xxx

Looks absolutely lovely

The main thing about the Chanel locks is that they show me how out of line I am!

Beautiful quilt!!!!

It turned out great...well from here. I'm not seeing it close. I really hate when this happens to a project. I have a craft project that should have been done a year ago and I am still procrastinating. My grandson has asked his sister if it is done. Grrrr. Well, hopefully you have that out of your system. Thanks for all of your videos. I have learned so much.

what a great learning experience for all of us

Since I owned two Ultimate Ones and now have Lucy I was totally intrigued by the name of this video.
My old machines had channel locks both vertical and horizontal. Lucy on the other hand only has horizontal channel locks. After watching this video I still don’t think I will ever miss the vertical channel locks.
So glad you saved me from the frustration.
I never put binding on with my longarm. I think it always looks better with my machine for me.
Thanks for confirming what I always thought was best for me.
Btw the quilt really is lovely.

Best laid plans…. It’s nice to know I’m not the only one. It’s beautiful!

Beautiful! AND….I ll never try that!!!

I thought it was great that you can reveal your mistakes. I have been quilting a long time and I keep looking for easy projects and I don’t have much fun when major mistakes are made because I am not paying attention. What I do now is “precede on” just like Lewis and Clark!

It really is an adorable quilt! Thank you for showing us this video especially since the project didn’t go as planned. It is so inspiring.
