I picked up this quilt kit from the Seeley Lake quilt store, sorry, I can't remember it's name for sure. I've had the top done for months now so getting this one on the rack of the longarm felt pretty good.
I had a lot of fun just goofing around with the various blocks and designs and just letting the APQS find it's own way.
I am also doing a wall hanging that has a few pumpkins in the display, guess it's the season, just wish a few more would have grown in my garden this year.
Lots of different blocks in this one, should look great up on my wall for this fall!
Take care, and happy quilting.
From the Calamity Quilter somewhere close to a seam ripper in Red Lodge, Montana.

Quilting In Montana
Spring Colors Should Call For A Few Daisies
I'm a pretty traditional quilter, but I'm trying to branch out, explore more fun colors and styles. This is the very first quilt I did on my new APQS Millennium Longarm Quilting Machine, and I think it turned out pretty darn good. The little guy helping me with the picture is my grandson David, he just has to be in grandma's sewing room.
I had not been a stranger to finishing quilts on a big frame with a machine, but I feel like I came from the dark ages and just got "back to the future" on this really fun machine.
So far I'm trying my hand at all freehand designs, or specific stencils for certain blocks. I can do the pantographs, but I think when someone puts so much effort into a quilt, it needs to have a design that kinda goes with the theme of the quilt too.
Just email me if you'd like to get one or two of your quilts finished before Christmas. 406-698-8640 Wanda Thomas
