Jamie and I played around with it a little tonight and though we are pretty novice at using it, we did a lot of quilting in a very short amount of time.

The Right Equipment
I got a new toy today!
Just the black thing, not the sewing machine. What does it do? Well it helps me move my quilt around more easily so that I can machine quilt it faster.

It's not the best looking little quilt. The cloth and batting was just stuff I had lying around. The stitches in white show up a lot better, but there are some in black on the left. The bananas are to give you a reference. I'd say that we covered more than half of the area and did it in less than 15 minutes. The stitches are much smoother and I could let the machine sew much faster than with just my machine.
I'm so excited. Now, I just need to get those two quilts ready to start quilting, but I also need some sleep. Slow steady progress is just the thing, right?

Very cool! Sometimes I wish I had something like that for my sewing machine because gravity can be my enemy.
