Hi there to all quilters 
I am new in the forum and very excited to meet all of you. I have made a few quilts, so quilting is some kind of new. My last 2 were made with the method, quilt as you go, by strip. I was wondering, if Missouri Star Company will make more tutorials with the Quilt as You Go technique. Although many traditional quilters may not like it, I think, it is a new technique many can try. I don't have a long arm and sending the quilts to be quilted, well... don't have so much money for it, but with an embroidery machine you can quilt your blocks or doing free motion. So I decided to give a try to Quilt as you Go. the real reason I decided to give a try to QUilt as You Go was, that I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia and trying to do the traditional method on big quilts using a sewing machine, is not an easy task and I was getting real bad backaches and in the neck too , and I will never quit my favorite hobby. I was wondering if they can teach new methods of quilting as you go. I have noticed there are many different techniques using this method, and it all depends on the quilt you are making or designing. Planning ahead is very important in Quilt as you go, because, the method and finishing technique changes. I will not get into details here, but It is only a suggestion for Missouri Star Company, maybe do tutorials with this technique which I find very gratifying and the results are just as beautiful as a traditional one. After all, all we want to achieve is have fun doing our quilts and at the end they are well constructed and beautiful, and using Quilt as You go method, you can achieve nice beautiful results. Thanks for reading and looking forward to hear from you. ( I will get a photo of the quilts I made using this method ) bye for now, Neelie from sunny Florida.
