I am Linda, sister, friend, department manager, professional quilter, and general super woman! 
I have been quilting for about 20 years, began machine quilting on my domestic machine about six years ago, and quickly realized that pushing a queen-sized quilt through the throat of a standard Bernina was not an option for my neck and shoulders. I bought a longarm in July of 2004 and have been happily quilting ever since. I love all aspects of quilting – piecing, art quilts, traditional quilts, fabric in general, embellishments, pantographs and custom/heirloom quilting. I am known mostly for my custom work, and that is generally the type I am asked to do.

Hello! As you can see you and I have something in common. We share the same name.
Recently a friend of mine told me to google my name. I did and I found you. I see you are indeed a stellar person. Take care.
From another, “Beautiful star”
Linda- Did you attend Hobart & William Smith College in Geneva, NY in the mid-70′s?
Yes, that was me.
OMG! I’m just realizing — were you Holly Patrick’s roommate? I’m a little slow on the up-take these days!
Linda,
I’m about a month off from getting my Millenium. We’re putting hardwood in the bonus room and then I can schedule delivery!
I’ve been taking care of my parents full-time since 2003. Mom died on Halloween this year. I still have my Dad but he takes less care. My dear husband, who has been very supportive of me taking care of my parents, also knows I have had no time for myself for years. He knew I had been checking out long-arms with the hopes of having time for one after my parents are gone. Well, after going to the recent road show her in Boise, he offered to get one for me.
On the APQS Forum you had mentioned a Batting Sample Project. I would love to be a part of it. (I tried to register with the Forum, but wasn’t recognized yet.)
Thanks, Heidi
Hi Heidi – I’m so sorry to hear about your mom’s passing. I have cared for elderly relatives before and know that while it’s a relief that they are at peace, it still hurts to lose them. I hope you will find time to get familiar with your new machine and that you will enjoy it very much. You still have time to sign up for the batting project. Everyone has voted for waiting until after the new year to get started on it, so we’ll be sure to include you. Welcome to the group. You’ll love your Millennium!
