Im tired of fighting the quilts with my machine and have thought many times that my husband could build me some kind of table that would turn my machine into a long arm.....lol
I will buy one when my youngest graduates college.....she is only 6, so I will be saving for a very long time.
You can turn your machine into a somewhat long arm. My father built mine from plans I found on ebay. Bought a janome 1600 with a 10 inch throat and used it for years. you are limited by the smaller throat space. I am now selling that one because I just got a Tin Lizzie 18.
