My daughter & I are looking to buy a Grace II Longarm frame and a Juki TL98Q. There are many deals online, but before spending that much money, we'd really like to "drive" this set up first - we've never had a mid arm or longarm! We live in central Florida and there isn't a dealer anywhere near us. I have been reading here that some of you have this set up and really like it. Now my awkward request...are any of you in central Florida and willing to let us see your frame & Juki working? Another question...did most of you order online without first using your system?

Thanks, Maxine

Sorry, I'm in Iowa. I had my Juki first and used it for machine quilting. I got to know my machine before I got the frame. I decided I wanted a frame because it was getting so hard to move a queen size quilt. My hands and arms would ache. I am quilting my first queen size quilt on my new Grace frame and it is wonderful. It takes a while to load the quilt but after that it great.

I have the original grace frame with a juki, my DD and I share it and it gets alot of use...I have it set up for 70", thats all the room I have but have done the flip&sew borders to enlarge a quilt...you will love it
