Long Arm Machine Co-Op?
Dawn Mason of Angelic Quilters in Birmingham, UK posed an interesting question on the Linkedin Quilting Enthusiasts forum. She asked, If you had the chance would you like to quilt your own quilts on a long arm machine by "renting" it off someone OR let someone else do it for you?

Praise From Students
Dear Marilyn, as I was going through my photos, I found pictures of the bargello quilt class during Quiltexpo 1994 in Karlsruhe. This Expo opened a whole new world for me! I enjoyed all classes I attended and was impressed by the energy you sent out to us! These experiences had a big impact in my life. I taught patchwork and quilting classes for 20 years, in 2005 I opened the first professional longarm quilting service in Austria. Now that I am retired I still make quilts. I want to thank you for the joy you brought into my life by teaching us a wonderful technique! I attached the photo of the finished quilt I started in the class in 1994.
I just completed a two day workshop with Marilyn and it was Wonderful! Fantastic! And most any other forms of praise I could think of. I want to thank her very much for the great experience and the enthusiasm she brought to share with us.
Thanks for changing the way I will look at fabric. Loved it!! Can’t wait to finish putting my elements together and seeing what I can create!
