I know a few people had questions about the terms "Mega Quilter" and "Qbot" so I will explain them here. :)

The "Mega Quilter" is a Viking sewing machine with a 9 inch throat and sits on an Inspira quilt frame.

The "Q-Bot" is a computer that you connect to your quilting frame and it uses cables that you install to move the quilting carage. you can see more about it at www.myqbot.com

I recently purcashed both of these and was able to get the machine and frame for $1000 and the Q-Bot I got used for $1300. So I was able to have a automated quilting machine for around $2300 which I know is nothing to sneeze at, but is a FANTASTIC deal! :)

I don't sell my quilts, this is my ninth quilt in about as many months. I kinda got bit by the bug and have just gone for it. So far a twin size is the largest I've made....but my NEXT project is for a queen sized! WoooHoo!


If you have any other questions please let me know.
