I don't have a long-arm, so I put off quilting my tops... partially because I can never decide what to do with it, and partially because it's so hard to do on my home machine. I hope you don't ever lose your desire to quilt - I truly admire your work. Making a heartstrings quilt is something I hope to do in the near future. They are all so lovely!Darlene Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06765261971908794837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20278983.post-46221782560748595452009-08-07T07:09:33.564-05:002009-08-07T07:09:33.564-05:00Basting large quilts.
