Coffecozy, like I said, there is some design and quilt format that I much prefer to do with my Juki. I don't think quilting on a frame is a better way to quilt. Just different. I think it must mainly depend on your quilting style. It's true that having to go row by row is sometimes very restrictive. I love curves and pebble design, and this is more fun for me to do on a frame. But for straight lines design, I prefer my Juki!
