I have an HQ16 and wouldn't trade it for the world. After I priced out having quilts quilted, I decided I could justify the cost. There is a learning curve that I for one never thought about, but once I practiced a bit, I was hooked! I do an occasional quilt for a friend, but I don't want to get bogged down in customer quilts and not get what I want to do, done! :-) That's the selfish side of me speaking! LOL!!
