Please take a look at the Bailey mid arm machine. They offer some combos with Grace frames and are much more affordable than buying a full long arm for many more thousand dollars.

You might be surprised at how affordable these can be.
If you spend $500 a year in fees, you can recoup your cost in 4 or 5 years and perhaps earn a little extra cash. How does that sound?
There are several options and a 13 inch will increase your quilting path. Looks good to me.
Does anyone own one of these?
