Have you ever made a large quilt only to have to wait for, what seems like an eternity, it to be quilted by your favorite longarmer? Why not try quilting those large quilts at home? This tutorial from The Little Mushroom Cap gives you tips and tricks to help you out.
With a list of suggestions included, you can get started quickly. The blogger, Amira, has made a video tutorial and even has a free online class to get you started on free motion quilting with your home sewing machine.
Longarm services can get pricey, especially if you make a lot of large quilts. Not only will quilting at home save you money, you can make the design entirely unique. In addition, you can finish it at your own pace and sometimes it can take months to get a quilt back from a longarmer.
