Quilt and piece at the same time? Yes, really. 🤯

In this video, Seth demonstrates how to piece a quilt directly on a longarm quilting machine, combining piecing and quilting into one efficient process.

You'll learn how to:
• Create consistent ¼" seams
• Use channel locks for straighter stitching
• Build your quilt one strip at a time
• Quilt as you piece for a fun, efficient workflow
