Fifth one is done... That is, this is the back of the fifth quilt that I have quilted on my long arm. I feel like I made some strides with using the long arm. I feel like more comfortable with controlling my movement/drawing ability and also made strides with balancing the tension. I might just get the hang of this piece of equipment yet!

Helpful Hints:I love using leader/ enders when I am chain piecing. It was an idea from Bonnie Hunter. Instead of using a scrap piece of material in between chains, use two small blocks. You can work on two project projects at once! I keep a pile of 2" scrap squares next to my machine for this reason...Happy piecing!
