Crash course on the Innova Longarm Quilting Machine

I spent a few hours today with my friend, Nancy, who is the lucky owner of an Innova longarm machine! Boy, there's a lot to learn but it will be SO worth it. She has a beautiful studio in Montebello, Quebec. Thanks to her expertise, I now feel more comfortable about putting the machine together - it will take time but I am up to a new challenge!

Getting ready to live the dream!

Today is the first day of my blog. I will soon be leaving the National Capital Region and my government job to live my dream - quilt my little heart out! I have purchased an Innova longarm (it has yet to be delivered). I have a few lessons under my belt thanks to my friend and mentor Alice. I have boxes all over the house and ready to be shipped to my new location, a small Northern Ontario town known as Earlton, Ontario. Who would be happy to move a week before Christmas??  Me Me ....  I am starting to live my dream in January 2011! Wish me luck! Will post pictures later!
