Just purchased New HQ Avante
 

:cool: I did it too! I made up my mind and purchased the HQ Avante! I am so excited! It should arrive the end of next week. I am siked! I have wanted a long arm for so long (pardon the pun). It took me a long time to make up my mind between the Crown Jewel and the Avante which are basically the same machine. I hope I made the right choice. I am so excited to get quilting on it. I tried one out and loved it. I glides.................... So smooth. I am getting it with the HQ 12' Studio Frame. I think I am going to ask them for the micro handles also. Happy. happy, joy, joy! If there are any HQ Avante users here, lets chat.

I was told by a quilt shop that had the Avante that it is cheaper then the Crown Jewel because it does not carry the Babylock name. They are the same machine.

Congratulations!!!! So thrilled for you!

Congratulations on the new toy. Hope you have hours of enjoyment.:thumbup:

Congrats. enjoy!!!!!

Congratulations! you will love it. I've the same set-up for about a year now. No regrets and no problems.

I also have the Avante-runs like a champ, handles any thread. I have the micro handles too, along with the 12 ft table.You'll love it. easy to run.

I have the exact same setup - I love mine - right now I have my studio table set at 8 ft because of space requirements - soon I will have the full 12 ft setup. I am so thrilled for you - its a wonderful machine.

Lucky you, congrats!

Can I come over and drool.. How great!
