Yesterday I was actually able to use a Tiara to quilt a small quilt for Project Linus. It was so much fun and remarkably easy to use. It did not have a stitch regulator, so I needed a little bit of practice to get my hands and foot to work together. Once I gained enough confidence to go fast, the movements were quite easy. The quote I received for just the basic machine was around $5400. To add 2 side fold-down table tops and the super-slick table cover brought the price closer to $6000. I'm not interested in the stitch regulator, so I didn't even ask. It made quilting the top so much fun.
