Lucinda's Quilting Adventure

My journey of becoming a Longarm Quilter

New beginnings....

Hello from East Texas!  My darling husband and I picked up stakes and moved to Tyler.  It's been a great adventure.  We are slowly settling in as we meet new friends, and learn a new town.  We have met some wonderful folks in East Texas.

I started doing some charity quilting this month for a local guild.  It's been fun to connect with my fellow quilters.  Yesterday, we had an "Airing of the Quilts" event in Tyler's town square to help raise funds for organizations that help others.  

I've also been playing with my quilting software and Art and Stitch software.  I created a pantograph and some words to go on several of the charity quilts.  I used a pre-purchased pattern and created the words in "Art and Stitch".  I then used Quilt Path (software on my longarm) to put the whole pattern together.  I used matching thread to be subtle, and have included some pictures of the pantograph layout on my computer and of the quilt.  Fun, fun!!

I continue to work on my butterflies for the "Lepidoptera" quilt.  I would like to give this as a gift this Christmas, but I still have  quite a few butterflies to cut and sew. 

We went to the Texas/OU game this month too in Dallas.  I grew up in Dallas and it was great to go to the State Fair, eat a corndog, and watch the game.  We had some friends come up from Austin and it was a great weekend.  

Have a great week!
