HI.
I''''M in a dilemma! I need some wise info from fellow quilters..

I am terminally ill...I have 65 quilts on varying stages that Id love to finish before I''''m finished. Original plans were to hand quilt all, I now know that time might knit allow that, so I want to buy a machine and get more done...I g have such huge medical bills that I don''''t think I can justify the machines calling my name.

SO, I am considering the JUKI machines. DOES ANYONE HAVE EXPERIENCE WITH JUKI MACHINES I want to add laser, stitch regulator, and speed control.

[SHELDONSMA]

Me, again! The screen too small wouldn''''t scroll for me to finish.
The JUKI models might be adequate but really the throat is quite.small, Di think??????? Anyone know of a reasonable priced quality MACHINE ONLY, for not much more than $2,300. I don'''t want to put my hubby in poor farmm. I have to be able to quilt using the movement of the machine while sitting. asy chemo has made iti impossible to quilt using the freehand method moving the quilt y sweet Hubby Is buildng the table./Frame. SO, I ONLY WANT THE MACHINE.
WHAT CAN ANYONE SUGGEST? The 2300 will be a big stretch.. but it is the maximum for sure. Thanks, God Bless!!

I am looking for a longarm that will fit on a Grace Frame. Just bought it as I was told it would be perfect for my Bernina 820. Grrr. Now I realize that I will have problems with the end of a quilt as well. Can anyone give me any ideas. I have no clue what machine will fit and which ones won''''t. I also bought the Quilt Motion Software and really would like a machine that is compatible with that.

Any help that anyone can give me is so very much appreciated. I have already spent so much $$....$10,000.00 for the frame and the software. Now I find that I could have gotten a Liz Tinney (not sure if that is spelled right) the 12'''' frame and quilt motion for that price. Feel scammed by a dealer.

I had a JUKI TL98 on a grace lite quilting frame and finished several quilts with it but found that I really didn't have the room to quilt every mush after the quilt was rolled on the back of the machine,no room left. So I would only get about seven inches quilted and would have to roll it again. I purchased the Baileys 15 inch and have gotten four quilts done since I purchase it in June. This only cost $2000.00 I love IT! I had looked at several high priced ones and found Baileys was just as good for what I needed and wasn't so expensive. I'm so happy I purchased this now I have so much room. Thank you for listening. Shar
