    Wow this page is packed with info on machine quilting. I am reading it for the 2nd time to catch what I missed. Great job.

    Loved your lens. Although I love to hand quilt, I have tried to quilt with my sewing machine. Loved that you added the ergonomic info. In my dreams I see a long arm in my future. Thanks for all your info and, great job on your lens.

    Thank you thank you thank you.
    I just finished quilting a 95"x105" flannel log cabin quilt on my DSM (Janome). It is the biggest quilt I have ever made and I was afraid to try on the DSM and was looking at long arm machines - you saved me $5000 and a room to keep it in - your video gave me the confidence to go ahead & try and it really worked out just fine. I'll likely never make a quilt this big again though.

    excellent site.
    i like your honesty - based on your experience..
    rather than having someone trying to sell their wares.

    i also have a juki 98Q and am going to purchase a frame from:

    Hi,
    I was Goggling machine quilting, and found your site..I'm quilting on a friend's Voyager 17, and in the past have rented time on a HQ16, and a Gammill...I couldn't really tell much difference between the HQ16, and the Gammil.
    I do feel a bit frustrated on the Voyager, as on other longarms its eaiser to do curvy designs.
    Some day I hope to buy a longarm, but don't know what size, as Iam unsure if I want to quilt for alot of customers. I'd sure hate to invest alot of money, and then resent having to quilt for others.
    Iam artistic, and love to "draw" on longarms, so I don't have much of a "learning curve", just so unsure if this will be a business.
    Anyhoo, thanks for listening to my whine...Any tips would be much appreciated!

    I just got a Quilting Machine and Frame and am starting to do Machine Quilting so I need all of the help I can get. I have a Janome 1600P
    and a King Size Grace Frame. If there is anything you can tell me to get started easier than I am now I would really like it. I have already broke my first needle and not even using it for over 3 mins.

    I truly appreciate your candor and honesty. Someone who isn't pushing me to buy a long arm machine is great. I have the stretch frame as well with a Juki 98Q. Not quite enough quilting space but it will do for now. Thank you!
