But with the mid arm you would still need to make the quilt sandwich and you move the material (not the machine) to FMQ. I am wondering if anyone has experience with both and would like to hear your opinions, likes, dislikes. Thank you very much.
Hi milley35,
look into the hq16. Mom and I purchased one used and love it. It has been a learning curve, but we are always trying/learning new things. Next to figure out the prostitcher. I think you would b happy with one. Look at longarm university.com. They sell used quilting machines, happy hunting!!!!
