Mama's place, I have a friend at church that has a Juki. She invited me go one day and 'try' it. It took us all day to do a simple baby quilt size. The machine would sew fine from left to right, but when you wanted to go right to left, thread broke every time. She told me at church this past Sunday that she put her grand daughter's twin size in to quilt. Nothing but trouble. Can't get the tension right. I know just that one day frustrated me, as I could have free motioned quilted it here on my regular machine ,the time we spent trying to re-thread and start again. I have back problems so a long arm in a frame might not be for me. Maybe I should look for a mid arm in a cabinet but sorry, no Juki...

I spent a good bit, for me, even though not nearly as much as a new one. I am totally frustrated and thinking of getting something else. I have a graduation quilt for my grandson that is way past due as far as getting it quilted. Any suggestions?
