While I was at the quilt show they had one of these babies set up. I got to take her for a spin. I could only look this go around but hopefully next time, I'll have a check in hand!!

I can only dream:)

Lucky you, I wish there was a quilt show close to me. I want to test drive a longarm so bad.

Aren't they fun? I always thought that nothing would be better or more fun than piecing a quilt...until I got a longarm! Now, quilting is my favorite part.
I only piece to be able to have something to quilt...and I wouldn't have believed it if someone would've told me I'd love quilting more than piecing! I even buy tops off ebay because I quilt faster than I piece! Can't keep up with myself! LOL! But boy, is it fun! Debbie in Austin |

Another option is to go to the various longarm manufacturers' Web sites to search for a dealer - there might be someone fairly close by. If you could visit the AQS show in Des Moines in October, you'd have a chance to try them all. I went last year, and I think just about every manufacturer - even some I hadn't heard of - was there and the machines were set up and ready to play. |
My mom has a Nolting and they are great machines. The factory is in Hiawatha, Iowa next to Cedar Rapids. They are great there for service and lessons and what ever else you need. I have used my mom's Nolting long arm and I think it's a well made machine.
