Installation is complete

My longarm machine was setup on Thursday by A-1 rep, Karen Overton, and her husband Johnny.  She gave me a full overview of the machine and its use as Johnny was assembling it.  One selling point for the A-1 brand is that is very easy for owner to maintain and adjust by oneself.  Everything is pretty simple.

We’re ALL adjusting to this big machine in our living room. 

The learning curve begins.  Using the machine is becoming more comfortable. After one more practice piece, I think I will be ready to try quilting on a traditional quilt top I have hanging around from a workshop project many moons ago.  It will become a charity quilt..  Then I can get on with new work.  Who-o-o-pee!
