\t\t\t\t\"\"<\/a>\"\"\n\nEarlier this month Terry, Matt and I attended the Machine Quilters Showcase held in Kansas City, Kansas.\u00a0A weather front went through while we were there and Terry experienced horizontal rain. \u00a0It is quite a sight from the ninth floor. \u00a0Luckily for us we did not have a tornado warning. \u00a0 Matt landed at the airport just after the front went through. \u00a0He had lots of bumps and lightning.\u00a0\n\n

Long Arm Quilting is growing by leaps and bounds and these quilters are certainly adding a new dimension to our quilting world. \u00a0I particularly enjoyed the Traditional Quilts that were quilted very Traditionally. \u00a0From 10 feet away it was hard to tell if the Double Wedding Ring Quilt was hand or machine quilted. \u00a0Other quilters are doing a\u00a0phenomenal\u00a0job with whole cloth quilts, on some the thread colors created the design, others quilted and then painted the design. \u00a0<\/div>\n\n\n\n
We also found some quilters who were using their embroidery designs in very creative ways. \u00a0Instead of just framing them in samplers, the designs were an integral part of a larger design.\u00a0<\/div>\n\n\"\"\"\"\n\n

We were not only looking at quilts, but we were also scouting for vendors who offer tools and accessories for the long arm quilter. \u00a0We also had a chance to meet and talk with the teachers who will be teaching our **newly added** long arm classes.<\/div>\n\n\n\n
