cabinhome Posted March 6, 2013 Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 My first long arm....a new 2013 Millie is scheduled to be delivered tomorrow! This is almost (but not quite. NOTHING tops being a grandma) as exciting as waiting for any of my grandchildren but clearly more exciting than some other events I have looked forward to. My new room is ready for it and I am a nervous wreck! Kathy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DawnCavanaugh Posted March 6, 2013 Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 We can feel the excitement bubbling all the way back in Iowa, Kathy! Let us know if you need any help. Be sure to read through the CD manual when you get the machine assembled. (Skip past the assembly instructions included in the first section to get to the "good stuff".) It has lots of useful info about loading quilts, thread, batting, cleaning, oiling, etc.) Have fun!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LFQuilts Posted March 6, 2013 Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 Read, practice, and most importantly - don't be afraid of the machine. Practice drawing or stitching every day. Oh yes, and have fun:) Congrats on the new family member . . . Lynn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ffq-lar Posted March 6, 2013 Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 Yay and congrats! I can only add that three years from now you'll look back on your adventure and wonder about it all--how you bought and set up your machine, how you practiced and learned, how you quilted your own tops and then some for friends. And how you got better and better! It's a great and rewarding journey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrandmaLKB Posted March 6, 2013 Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 Do you have food and meals prepared in the freezer for heating up so you won't have to be disturbed by such things as COOKING ??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heritage Keepsakes Posted March 6, 2013 Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 How exciting for you! When the truck pulls up outside your house to deliver your new 'baby', it's a moment you won't forget. Congratulations and enjoy your day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
