I've got a Juki 98QE and I'm on the list to be stretched. It ends up a LOT cheaper than the Mid/LA's. I got my frame separate (John Watts). I like the Juki b/c it's an industrial machine. Sharon Shamler uses a Juki for piecing and it goes like 60 I also have a SR on it. I'm waiting for the call to ship it to Rick at WOWquilts. I know I am going to like it. I saved a lot of money doing it this way.
