Here's a view of my method of protecting the outer area of quilts l do on my domestic. I turn the excess batting to front and safety pin it along  1/4" of raw edge of front. This does 2 things for me.#1 it keeps me from quilting into the area l'll be binding ( how often l've bound over the tops of my fmq design in the past!) , and #2, it stops the backing from flipping back and getting edges caught & accidently quilted ( nothing worse than admiring your lovely finished border area, only to turn it over & find your backing' got tucked back and folds quilted into it!).

This is an example of a graffiti quilt design my fmq students and l came up with. After l'm back in Ontario, l'm going to try a stitch out of this!

As you can see my ruler is to large for my quilting foot. The foot ...

Getting ready to teach my rulerclass later this fall. I planned out the design ( plus some alternatives) using the rulers and a spacer for my pen. Then had some no stress fun stitching it out on a piece of muslin. Ideas like this are great for negative space on quilts...but of course would be lost on busy printed parts.

Under my needle today...another isolette cover. This one started with a panel, which l' m outline quilting...then on to do cc's in the border of 2" squares l made from scraps. The final borders will get some detailed quilting ( haven't decided on one yet).

Shortest day of the year...and light's fading fast from the skylight over my machine...but l hate to stop when l'm ''on a roll''. lol.

The machine is my own. l have a homebuilt large frame in garage attic, but it has no heat, so l always had to use the machine as a sitdown one in winter. This one is not favored by many, as it is "flimsy" when set up in 10 ft., but l'm using the 1/2 set up. l'm not sure if that panto shelf will stay...it's in my line of vision unless l'm sitting...something l've never tried while " longarming." For panto use, one stands...so l'll try that first. lt's been years since l've used one!

Hère's my latest set up! l got a bargain on kijiji in spring...no time to set up until now. Serously small compared to long arm setup, but just right for project Linus quilts:)
