Hello, I just found your channel. I am new to long-arming and just got QCT6 Pro with a 19x elite on a 10' rolling frame on Thanksgiving . So I am learning how to use QCT6 Pro software. I will save this video and will try these steps on a practice quilt. I look forward to more of your tutorials Thanks for sharing. 😊
That is so EXCITING!!! This is really powerful but you don't have to learn it all at once. Have fun in the journey and reach out to us when you have questions.
Saving this video as I’m going to be doing this really soon and I wanna go back and see what else you have that I need to be saving, you have no idea how much help you are to me with these videos and thank you for making them ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I will tell Kathy how much quilters appreciate the videos. I am very thankful when she lets me film. She is so busy, especially as Christmas approaches and she has tons of customers that want their quilts done. Let us know when you have questions and we will help you out. Please share our videos and channel so we can help your friends as well!🥰
I would love to see a video on how often your machine needs a good cleaning and what is done on a regular basis to keep your machine running good.
Thanks for the question Mandy, the way the Grace Q'nique and Block RockiT machines are made they don't really ever need a deep cleaning. If you blow out the lint in the bobbin (hook) area with compressed air, and oil the machines like the manual says then your machine will last for many years. If it ever needs to be serviced by the Grace Company, they will in essence "re-certify" your machine meaning it will be as close to brand new as possible.
I am new as well. Just bought Evolution 12 ' and QCT 6 Pro from Kathy Quilts. Have a 19X Elite. This is a great video. You have been so helpful. I love this quilt pattern, which QCT Panto is it?
Thanks Linda! You were so awesome to work with. Let us know when you have any questions.
I have so much to learn with my new to me long arm. Please talk your way through the steps to help me. Thank you.

Hi Christeena, It is called Spirals and Bubbles. Here is the link: www.digitizedquiltingpatterns.com/shop/product/spirals-and-bubbles-e2e/ I will put this in the description incase this link isn't clickable
Who knew you could use the safe zone on QCT6 to mask of part of the design and only stitch what you need at the end of the quilt!
