Quilting with a Long Arm Sew Together Live

Lisa Lueck, Cuddle Ambassador

Quilting has evolved over the years from using scraps of clothes to piece quilts. Today, we are lucky to have beautiful fabrics available specifically made for quilting. All my quilts include Cuddle® and/or Luxe Cuddle®. Using Shannon Fabrics opens the world to many possibilities to make the World a Softer place. Using Shannon Fabrics enhances quilting and creates a canvas that has endless possibilities. There are many strip kits available that can be put on a long arm and quilted. You can make Sew Simple Blankets or Self Binding Blankets on the long arm. Paper piecing is an option for the more adventurous. These are all types of blankets. You can also long arm Cuddle® to create other things such as table runners, bags, garments. Just make something with Cuddle® and remember finished is better than perfect.

Quilting Supplies used in the Sew Together Live include Cuddle® and/or Luxe Cuddle®, Polyester Thread (Glide, Omni, Innovatech), Quilter’s Dream Poly Request Batting, Groz Beckert #16 needle, SewTites Magnum, Pre-wound bobbins (Magna-Glide #40), Famore’ Batting Scissors, Sillivan’s 120” retractable tape, and quilting designs (Sweet Dreams Quilt Studio and Urban Elementz)
