Our episode on free motion quilting on a domestic machine was so popular, we are back to talk about longarm quilting tips! We also talk about what criteria quilters use to choose patterns and books.
This episode is brought to you by Ink & Arrow Fabrics!
The quilt hanging behind us is our new Main Squeeze pattern quilt! The one in this episode is made with a layer cake, and there’s also a jelly roll version! Get the pattern and make your own version!
