APQS Video Tutorial: Swirls on a string

June 2, 2015

With this background filler design we’re breaking all the rules. In this longarm quilting tutorial video APQS Dealer and Educator Angela Huffman demonstrates a fast, fun filler called “Swirls on a string.” It’s a very forgiving design that is perfect for longarm machines.

Happy Quilting!
