There aren't many comments I don't like, but this is one of them. A Gammill Statler Stitcher computerized quilting system ( arguably the best system) starts at $19,995. The 30 inch model goes for $28,900. There are plenty of options available to raise the price quite nicely. I like free hand too. These machines hold their value better then cars ( for example ), and produce income, as well as great joy for those who invest in them. What does it matter the cost , if it is replaced by great value? The monthly payment is very affordable for many quilters.
