Hi, Linda! For our longarming episodes, Angela Huffman will often bring in quilts from students or friends, rather from the magazine. It’s a fun way to showcase other designers. The quilts Angela shared on this episode were made by Kim Lalley (Dragon Star, on design wall) and Debbie Dison (Seasonal Greetings, on machine frame). Both quilt designs are by Judy Niemeyer of Quiltwerx.
