    Oh man keep those shoulders down and take lots of breaks......I always tense up and tie myself in knots when machine quilting!

    Good luck and we'll see you on the other side of this project :0).

    Happy Sewing

    Have fun! Like Kim says, regular breaks, lots of shoulder movement during the breaks and rest your eyes occasionally. :) Enjoy! Can't wait to see the finished quilt!

    Here's my advise: Pin sip, bobbin dance. Every time you take a pin out, take a sip of water. Every time you change the bobbin, dance to the music for about 30 seconds. It keeps you going.... good luck, can't wait to see it!!!

    So????????
    How's it going?
    And I'd love to watch Karen machine quilt between the sipping and dancing...of course if I drank that much water I'd running to the bathroom every 15 minutes too :0)!

    I hope its going well......
    Happy sewing

    I think I used 11 bobbins on the New Wave quilt - I can't imagine how many the Star is going to take. Anxious to see the finish!

    I'm looking forward to seeing what it will finish like as you said you have not done much machine quilting if I remember right. I have not done any I have several books on the quilt as you go method and think I might try one like that next year.
