I've been watching videos on Youtube showing long arm quilters magically doing the most amazing designs. I also found two old magazines from Fons and Porter (I think that's the name) and there are lots of ads showing them. My question is, is all this sewing freehand? Do they make a machine that, once you get the quilt stretched, you push the 'magic button' and the machines does the stitch automatically?
Now, I'll never own one due to money and the room for it but, if the sewing is all done free hand, how does a person reach that level of skill? Donna
