I don't ...Hi Bonnie, and Happy almost New Year! I don't have an APQS system, so don't have intelliquilter. I do not even have a computer system for my Handi Quilter Fusion. But in about a year I will get ProStitcher for my machine, and will upgrade my Gallery Frame to a Gallery II frame, and can switch between loading my quilts two ways. I didn't have a problem not getting the computer right away. It gives me a chance to become better acquainted w/ FMQ, Rulers, Groovy Board and Pantographs. I am afraid if I had the computer right away I would not learn these other methods, which are great to know also.<br /><br />Good Luck learning your new system, and Have Fun w/ it! 2023 will be a Great Year!Donna Endresenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09161370395006714301noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-8630512697905615252022-12-29T07:27:35.796-05:002022-12-29T07:27:35.796-05:00I purchased my long arm in 2008.

Really enjoy Mystery quilt every year. Thanks for making my holidays complete.

I got the baby quilt done and off to the owner on the 26th so I'm now working on a Ribbon Candy quilt using Merry and Bright by Me & My Sister. Hope the puppies are doing good.

End of the year makes me a bit retrospective. Watched the tribute to those who passed on this year already. Too many to count. Here's to 2023, and Our Birthday Month. Celebrate the whole 31 days!Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06156858742587928699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-62744185920334360812022-12-28T12:29:26.950-05:002022-12-28T12:29:26.950-05:00The main thing I'll be doing to prepare for th...The main thing I'll be doing to prepare for the new year is move all the previous ufo's to the 2023 tab in my journal and make space for new projects and a place to list my finishes for the year. I also make a list of the quilts I gift away during the year. It's fun to see what I've accomplished and shared each year. I started this in 2016. Wish I had started (like my teacher told me to) back in 2005 when all this started.

I spent a good 10 minutes looking at the squares and figuring out how she worked her magic. How did they do it then? It touches my heart. The determination of it all is mind boggling.

The model train guys (mostly the engineering type) always came up to see it and show it to new guys - describing it as a C N C machine.

I would so rather be piecing the quilt than finishing it; but, I am happy that I have the capabilities and the knowledge to do so! I hope she's a good teacher and you're back up and running again soon! I am sure she is enjoying having the Inn to herself as well. Still trying to finish the binding. Then maybe a little purging and rearranging. Have a great day!

Some were bought for renovation, and I've lost track of which those were or how far gone (or along) they are. Time to dust them off (literally, sigh) and figure out what's what!<br /><br />Carolyncbotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08417290733581551242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-27693303737380979392022-12-28T09:17:49.000-05:002022-12-28T09:17:49.000-05:00How exciting for you to have the upgrade to your l...How exciting for you to have the upgrade to your long arm!
