Note: If you need assistance with design decisions, pattern selection, color choices or zipper stitching, I am happy to help at no extra charge, but this needs to be done before the appointment. How do I start? You choose to either complete your own project or let me complete it for you. "Certification Class" is one-on-one instruction and plenty of time to experiment so that you will be ready to quilt your own quilts. I will always be here to help you if needed. Cost is $125.00 and it takes 4 hours to complete. Class includes1 hour of overview of machine and software and how to stitch out patterns. 3 hours for you to get acquainted with "ELVIS" - my Statler. All the fabric and thread you need to complete a sample quilt. A set of zipper leads ($55.00 value) that allows you to attach your quilt fast and easy to the machine. A Kim Diamond pattern book. If you can use a mouse to navigate a computer screen - you can do this. Find more pattern designs on my web site: if you find a pattern "ELVIS" doesn't have, I will split the $10 - $30 fee and get it for you.

The longarm quilting machine is used to stitch the three layers (top, back, and batting) of a quilt together Each year, more women discover the physical demands of using their home machines to stitch the layers comprising a quilt. The use of the long arm quilting machine makes sewing the layers together much easier, thanks to the roller system that holds all three layers together. Stitch perfect designs using my computerized Gammill/ Statler. Gammill is the name of the long arm. Statler is the name of the computer system. The two together are named "ELVIS"! |
