As a longarm quilter who runs the largest APQS Showroom in Canada with a very busy rental program, I teach hundreds of new quilters how to use a longarm machine. This gives me a very unique perspective you are sure to find helpful when making your buying decisions. Whether you choose APQS or any other brand of longarm, I can help walk you through the buying decision and most importantly show you a step-by-step program to get you started finishing quilts fast.
