I am the odd duck that tried a long arm and found I really missed the tactile enjoyment of touching fabric! I have had a Sweet 16 for about 6 years, and I just love it. I just quilt for my own enjoyment, not for pay, and I don't mind if the process is a bit slower than a long arm. I admit I really don't like sandwiching my quilts that are bigger than a big lap quilt. I am going to have a long armer friend baste my bigger quilts with water so,uncle thread in the future.
