This was my birthday/mother's day gift to myself....thanks to my husband, my long arm quilting is now a reality! Who'd the thought that a machine of this nature and quilting frame would require so many parts! So of course we had to make room for it....I didn't want it upstairs so we pushed the dinning room table to the side (we don't even use it anymore) and parked the long arm in its place. I gave it a test drive with an old quilt top I had pieced when I first started quilting. So far no quilting problems. Of course I'm free motioning it for now. I'm researching the long arm ruler templates so I can quilt straight and curved lines when I don't want to do my free motion curly q's. I loaded her with Bottomline in the bobbin and So Fine #40 (a variegated polyester thread) in the top. The real question is what name did I giver her....I think Artie is what is speaking to me. Welcome to the family Artie!

I am looking into getting the same longarm machine. Can you tell me if you are happy with your machine. Comments are closed.
