Matt Sparrow Posted September 14, 2009 Report Share Posted September 14, 2009 I have an ETA of 11:30 MST for the delivery of my 2009 APQS Millennium! WOOT WOOT WOOT WOOT! That's less than an hour and a half away. I've got the Live Studio Cam going as I take apart my HQ16 frame to make room for My new baby Miller Sparrow and so you can watch the set up! I will turn the camera to my driveway so everyone can watch the machine get dropped off. OMG! http://manquilter.com then 'CLICK HERE FOR LIVE QUILTING ACTION' to join me live in my studio :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gator Posted September 14, 2009 Report Share Posted September 14, 2009 Congrats!!! Wish I could be watching but my government computer won't allow the "live TV". Please tell us everything and post pics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustSewSimple Posted September 14, 2009 Report Share Posted September 14, 2009 This is just the funniest this I have seen. I have never watched someone else get to enjoy the arrival of their baby. How funny is that!!! I was so excited the day my Lenni arrived - and it was late getting here - and I was a wreck. My husband helped calm me and was right here to help set it up or I really would have been nuts with it just sitting in boxes! I can't wait until you get it; get it set up; and get it stitching! You are one lucky guy to get to buy the "big one" with all the bells! PS I also like your studio. Wish mine was that big. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njquiltergirl Posted September 14, 2009 Report Share Posted September 14, 2009 Hey Matt, Congrats! A very exciting time. I was in the same Karen Mc Tavishing class as you this year at MQX. Nice to see a man-quilter posting here. Enjoy Miller Sparrow. Be patient, it will take some time to get him settled in and you used to him. Have fun!

Matt Sparrow Posted September 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 15, 2009 I'm Crazy Excited! The Millennium Falcon is up and running. I'm going to load up some Muslin and do a practice run. I can't believe the QUALITY! of every single little piece of this set up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quiltmonkey Posted September 15, 2009 Report Share Posted September 15, 2009 OK I can't watch streaming video at work (they block it) so I have to wait until after work when I get home. Anyhoo it looks like you got Millennium set up and there's one of your little guys over there running it along the rails. He needs a step stool! :) I like the Beatles Songs... Rock On and Quilt on, Sparrow Family!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PattyJo Posted September 15, 2009 Report Share Posted September 15, 2009 Matt - fun to watch you get your fabric loaded and I do it the same as you. Pin to the take up first, then the backer roller. As you said, same amount of pinning. I do have zippers, but sometimes it is just as quick to pin the smaller quilts. Love the music your listening to also. Rock n Roll --OH yea.:cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharon M Posted September 15, 2009 Report Share Posted September 15, 2009 ok, does anyone else feel like a peeping Tom??! Thanks for permission to peep, Matt! It's been fun checking in on you today! Congratulations on your new addition! And Miller will still be there tomorrow... or is his name Falcon? I'm confused. Anyway, don't forget to go to bed tonight!

Matt Sparrow Posted September 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 15, 2009 Thanks for stopping by everyone. Now that I've got the Millennium Falcon running, I'll have it purring all day long. So come back any time. Don't worry, those voyeuristic tendencies are completely natural... LOL!
