You may be asking yourself what is a longarm quilting service? Well, it is a service that someone provides to you with a special machine that does the tough finishing of your special, maybe keepsake, quilt. If you have such a quilt that you have put time and effort and much love into, then you want to make sure that the finishing is done right, perfectly and without flaws.
Since you have discovered this site, I am so excited that you are here. When I first started making my keepsake quilts for my family, I never quite seemed to get the edging on right. Or something else just wasn’t right. I had no idea that someone or rather “some machine” was out there and someone that knew how to use that machine could help me get the exact finish I was looking for. That’s when I started my searching and ended up starting this blog for you so you wouldn’t miss something that is awesome.
If you would like to go here and find a longarm quilting service, I’m sure you will be pleasantly surprised by all of the services they can provide to you, including connecting binding edges on a quilt. I have used quilting services now for all of my quilts and have been extremely pleased.
Some time during finishing off one of the quilts, I pondered the cost of getting one. After doing my research on them, I decided that using a service is much more economical for me.Needless to say, it is costly! Since people in the past relied on quilting bees to produce finished quilts, I needed to find some other method because buying that machine was not an option for me.
A while ago after I had finished a few of my quilts and didn’t know how to finish them, I discovered “long arm quilting services”.Important celebrations came much too often and too soon! Let alone, Christmas. So I found four quilting services, called them, asked them questions and voila! So, solved that completely.
I hope you don’t spend as much time as I did trying to find the right quilting service. This is the reason I have made this blog, so you won’t waste your precious time.
One thing that I have just finished doing, which was a first for me, is I sent a design to my quilting service.The person is going to make a quilted topping from the art work that I had made on her long arm quilter. I sent the design, which is unique only to my family, and it will be ready for pick up before my husband’s birthday! I am so excited about it! My quilting service is going to do the whole thing, but I made the design! I never could have made a quilt like that doing it the old fashioned way. That’s not to say I have given up making homemade, hand quilting services of my own.Nope, never-ever, I adore it excessively.
The best thing about finding my longarm quilting service is that now I have so many more options to add to my hobby.The next thing that I am going to quilt will be more long arm quilting stencils with some uniqueness.
