Longarm 2Originally uploaded by blp1979.

Longer post forthwith, but here’s a picture for now.

Sue Fox is a quilter with a studio in Berkeley where I do my larger quilt photography. She’s an awesome person, and does beautiful work. This is a shot of her LongArm machine, idly enjoying a President’s Day off.

We’ve now gotten the huge pinboards built, although not quite finished, in her studio, which will speed quilt photography– the longest part is getting the quilts hung square on the wall. We figured out that you really just need a huge (in this case, 10′x12′) board to pin into.
Update: the results of the giant pinboard are here: http://photo.benpeoples.com/2007/03/25/huge-quilt-shoot/
I have Sue Fox’s contact information, if anyone is searching the web and finds me first — just drop me a line at the address below
