I was so confused when I began quilting my own quilts four years ago, wondering what system would work for me. It was right here on the Quilting Board that I found my HQ16! I have had it since 2011 and I love it! It has stitch regulation and a perfect stitch. Since I purchased it I have upgraded it in many ways with a new pole system and a new frame. And guess what? I'm selling it! The reason? I'm upgrading to a computerized Handi Quilter. If you are interested and would like more information and pictures please email me or PM...I'd love to make you a great deal.
