Hi ,
I’ve just added quilt motion to my frame this week! This is Quilter’s Creative Touch, an automation system which adds a motor to your carriage, drive belts to your frame, and a tablet to run the software to your longarm. Basically this allows the longarm to move by itself automatically!
How Quilt Automation Works
|
I’m really proud of myself because I build this upgrade almost completely by myself. Josh helped me pick up the longarm and move it off the frame and then put it back on the frame. But other than that, I did all the work!
The upgrade kit comes with instructions and brackets for adding automation to the following frames: Continuum, Q-Zone Hoop, Q-Zone Queen, SR2, Majestic, Pinnacle, Bernina Frame, Janome Artistic,
and Launchpad.
Here's another quilting video shared a few days early on how I quilted this block perfectly with a feather wreath and echo ditching:
Grace Company Price Increase October 1st
|
Grace Company announced earlier this month that the prices of most of our products, longarm machines, frames, and accessories will be increasing on October 1st.
While yes, we will have many fun holiday specials, I doubt the prices will be as good as they are right now.
I absolutely love quilting on my longarm machines and I'm so excited to explore automated quilting with QCT4. I have many more fun things to share with you, including how to quilt triangles, stitch in the ditch, and plan pretty borders!
First Copies Received of My New Books
|
I had a little dance for joy at the mailbox this week! I've received the first sample of my new book, Leah Day's Goddess Quilts: Journey into Light and Love through Art Quilting.
I'm also happy to share something I've been keeping secret for months: the Dream Goddess 3 Month Planner and Creativity Journal! I designed this while writing the goddess quilt book and it helped me stay focused while writing the book, journal out all the things that were getting in my way, and plan my days and weeks around achieving my highest prority.
There's some fine tuning required, as always, but these two look beautiful and I'm so happy with them.
We are keeping this preorder small and simple so only quilters on this special list will be notified of the preorder.
