I purchased the sewing machine juki tl98q which does not do loads of fancy stitches it goes forward backwards and stops. It has a large throat which was why I purchased but all the new jukes also have same size throat. ( we measured them. At class )
Try to find me where to have a go at using the frame. I had a days lesson plus short spells at shows etc.
mine is 9 ft try to get the longest you can to put big quilts on.
