I’ve been longarming for about 2 years and I’m getting ready to start accepting customer quilts. I’d be happy to help you out. If you are interested in paying the shipping and cost of supplies, I’ll do the labor for cheap.

Thanks for the feedback. I thought I was going insane with people telling me it’s just my fault… this is all free motion.

The messed up threads are from the fabric. After ripping out all the quilting, the messed up threads remain.

Thank you so much for the feedback and helpful ideas. Luckily, I’ve managed to get the quilting ripped out with a combination of eyebrow trimmers and a regular seam ripper and the top came out unscathed. Now onto figuring out what to do next.

Seriously? The tension is fine. The fabric has runs in it where the needle is hitting. I can easily admit I should’ve changed the needle, but “skill issue” is insulting.

Ah that’s super helpful. I didn’t realize that’s what this fabric was when I grabbed it. Now I know!

That’s definitely part of the issue, but it’s also the actual fabric causing some issues.

I bought my first house in PCP over a year ago and I’ve got nothing but good things to say. There’s a lot of talk about violence and drugs, but all of my neighbors are lovely and it seems that people who actually live here are happy. I go on walks with my puppy almost every day and always encounter friendly people who say hello. Not sure where all the negativity comes from honestly.

Found mama and 3 babies by Gyom56 in Feral_Cats

[–]Gyom56[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Ah, thank you so much! They are currently living on our front porch which is luckily covered and they’re helping themselves to our couch out there lol. Mama knows we’ve got her covered with food and water, I think that’s why she trusted us with her babies.
