Bling your machine: Inspiration for decorating your longarm

January 28, 2025

APQS Owners are pretty creative when it comes to decorating their machines! Let’s look at a few examples of their creativity.

Longarm decals

Decals for longarm quilting machines are available from many sources. You can easily find them on Urban Elementz (where they call them Tattoos) at https://www.urbanelementz.com/tattoo-elementz.html or on Etsy.

They come in many different styles and are easy to apply – just rub on and peel the backing off.

Names and labels

Some longarm owners develop such a close relationship with their machine that they name them!

Bling

Stick on bling, like you would put on your phone, works as well to create your own fun designs!
