Default Long arm quilter

Please understand I am not judging. You are entitled to have whatever machine(s) you want ... so PLEASE don't be offended by my questions ... I'm just trying to learn how I would benefit from a LAM sometime in the future if I could afford to. I realize you can do larger quilts. Do you find your "quilting" is better, the same? Is FMQ easier on a LA? I'm eager to learn whatever you wish to share.

Thank you!

My mom and I purchased an hq16 and love it.. We self taught and enjoy using it for pleasure and some friends have given us quilts to do for them. We are not professionals, but have fun. No only to figure out the pro stitcher. We cannot understand that. Anyone that knows how to use it can help us. We would appreciate it. Have a great day!!!!!m
