I'm a new quilter.

I own a babylock quilter's choice which may have been a bad choice.

I am considering a long arm machine. Does anyone have any recommendations or suggestions about brands? Any input would be most appreciated.

Hello and welcome from SW Iowa. Glad to have you here. The only thing I know about long arm machines is I want one.

My cat sleeps on my quilts, too. I gave my first quilt to him because I thought he loved it. Turns out he loves all of them. Smart little guy.

Kentucky is a great place. My parents lived there for a time, and I have cousins there.

I think I want a sitdown model because I don't have room for a frame.

I wonder if the sitdown models can later be used with frames, though.

I've looked at so many websites for long arms. I still haven't found a side by side comparison site, though.

Hi! I used to live in Highland Falls/Ft. Montgomery halfway between West Point and Bear Mt. and worked at USMA West Point Officers Club. I miss being on the Hudson River very much. I moved to GA almost 8 years ago and have to say that I don't miss the snow or the high taxes but I'll always be a New Yorker at heart. Welcome! You'll love it here...lots of really nice people and a wealth of quilting info at your fingertips.
