What Every Longarmer Should Know (featuring Vince from BERNINA)

🧵 Is your longarm in top shape?
In this episode, I’m joined by a very special guest: Vince from BERNINA, the Development Manager for the Q Series longarms! He’s here to walk us through essential maintenance tips, behind-the-scenes insights, and the real things every longarmer should know — no matter what brand you use.

Whether you're quilting on a BERNINA, another longarm machine, or considering investing in one, this conversation is packed with helpful advice, expert stories, and live Q&A.

After the chat, I’ll be free motion quilting my signature Bapt-ish Fans design (a twist on the traditional Baptist Fan) — this time on a minky backing.
