Bonnie Posted September 17, 2010 Report Posted September 17, 2010 Originally posted by RMB Silly girl....we have all brands and love everyone....there are a lot of non-longarmers here and many many different brands of long and mid-arm machines. I personally started out on a Brother 1300 and did many quilts with that before I got my first LA, and even still do a good share still on the DSM.
mrsbishwit Posted September 17, 2010 Report Posted September 17, 2010 "Quilters" come in many forms just like quilts! :P:D Welcome to the forum!
RMB Posted September 17, 2010 Report Posted September 17, 2010 Thank you Bonnie for your encouragement. I have a Bernina 930 machine that I'm now working on, and a Brother Quattro 6000, but not likely to be getting a "Long Arm" this time around. I'm just a young kid (going on 92) and enjoying my quilting and embroidery. Just finished "Moodswings" quilt by Hoopsisters - Made it for our Church Sewing guild, fund raising event next month. Didn't take a picture.However, it turned out great. I'm looking forward to all the interesting topics on this forum. Rosemary.
LadyLake Posted September 17, 2010 Report Posted September 17, 2010 Welcome Rosemary! Quilting is quilting, no matter what method, so there will be plenty to share!
LibbyG Posted September 17, 2010 Report Posted September 17, 2010 Rosemary, Many quilters are using their domestic machines to quilt. You'll find many good ideas on this forum. Stay with us and post those pictures. I should talk, because I haven't done a good job with this, but when I get back from Camp Mowana, I'm going to make that a priority.
RMB Posted September 17, 2010 Report Posted September 17, 2010 Thanks Libby - will keep on trying. Rosemary

GrandmaLKB Posted September 18, 2010 Report Posted September 18, 2010 I also quilted on my sewing machine, then graduated to the Handi Quilt frame (that is used with a sewing machine), then on to the Handi Quilter 16 mid arm machine and just this past March I graduated to the Millenium ! This has been over a period of 15 years or so. Welcome............I have learned sooooo much here. If you have a question, just ask! Someone always has the answer or a suggestion for you. It's great !
meg Posted September 18, 2010 Report Posted September 18, 2010 welcome rosemary - i hope to still be able to quilt when i'm 92! and you are rocking the computer, too. I have a sister who is only 60 and she won't learn the computer. 92 is only as old as you make it. you go girl!!!!
