A Quilter's Choice - APQS West

Your quilt back can be colorful without competing with the front!

The new Electric Garden wide backs are available in Honey Swirl, Silver Shine, Splashberry and Smoke. 20% off these 4 wide backs through August 15, they are stunning. If you are local come in or check online for all the new wide backing I have in stock.

This group gives you four very different directions, from warm gold and energetic color to cooler silver and dark neutral options. You can choose a backing that quietly supports the quilt or one that gives the reverse side more personality.

View all four on the website, then send me a photo of your quilt top if you would like help choosing. I can choose a thread color for you as well.

You do not need another general class if one skill is holding you back!

Private instruction can focus on the part of longarm quilting you want to improve.

We can work on feathers, borders, sashings, background fills, free-motion movement, ruler techniques, marking or another area that has been frustrating you.

Tell me what you can already do and what you want to learn next. I will help you choose the right focus for your lesson and find an available time.

Meet Genesis™ Technology: the engineering that makes Tilly the quietest, most precise APQS machine yet.

Genesis™ replaces the traditional pulleys, bearings, and drive shafts other longarms rely on with two precision digital motors built right into the machine head. Here's what that means for you.

AccuSync: Tilly recalibrates herself every time you power on, even after a needle break

Industry-leading visibility: a smaller top arm means a clear view of your whole work area, all the way to the take-up roller

Quieter, smoother quilting: fewer moving parts means less noise, ideal for home studios

Remote support: send diagnostics and get help through the APQS app, no service call needed

ig news, friends—many of you already know APQS has a new machine coming, and she is truly something special. Tilly, built with the new Genesis™ Technology, is a huge leap forward from anything we’ve had before.

As a longtime APQS dealer and supporter of quilters everywhere, I’m thrilled to share that Tilly will be arriving in my shop. I can’t wait for you to meet her. I’ll post the moment she’s here so you can come in and see her for yourself.

If you want to see her even sooner, check out the roadshow schedule on my website or the APQS website—September dates are already posted.

To make room for Tilly, I’ll be selling my beloved Freddie. She’s been an incredible machine—quiet, smooth, and lovingly cared for. She’s on a 12‑foot Deluxe Table, includes a lifetime warranty, and will be priced fairly. Optional accessories will be available.

I’ll share full details next week on Facebook, my website, and through email. If you’re seriously interested before the official announcement, reach out by email, text, or phone and I’ll give you the information early.

Freddie is located in Highlands Ranch, CO. Pickup is easiest, but shipping arrangements can be made by you if needed.
