  1. I may be the odd one but I like both. I have been on this forum since 2010 and have learned SO much from everyone here. I know I'm a better quilter because of this forum. The support is awesome. Although I have had a hard time with this format since it changed and have really not used it as much as I use to. Probably more my lack of tech ability than anything else. The "I Love APQS" FB page is the only quilting group I'm a part of on FB. I've gotten help and shard pictures there. I've learned if I just leave it on that page, the posts there are the only thing I see.
  2. I need advice. I got my Lenni in 2010, at that time I didn't know anything about having a longarm. I really stretched the canvases, really pushed my skills at keeping things square. I went to floating my tops just so I didn't have to use the horribly stretched canvas (thank god for all the you tube videos). I am replacing them today (they got stained in the move) and want advice on what everyone does to keep them in great shape. TIA
  3. I too have a Lenni. I have done hobbs 80/20 on the bottom with wool on top. The combination has worked great for me (more than once). I did not need to raise my hopping foot. However if it seems you are pushing the quilt top and not just stitching it then maybe you'll need to raise it a hair. This is very easy to do. I just put the wool on top of the 80/20 and off I went, straightened all layers as I rolled along. I like the definition wool batting gives the quilting.
  4. I named mine Stitchin' Quilts. My husband calls it Bitchin' quilts.
  5. I really like that. The colors are going to brighten things up.
