Toogie I have a midarm machine....the kind with the big table top desk that you sit down at. It is a BabyLock Tiara that I bought used and I love it to pieces. I have tried long arms, but they just aren't for me.
Try both types and decide what method you like best. Watson |
We had a Home Ec class here and when I spoke to the teacher about sewing here is what she said. "Oh, I teach cooking because I can't sew." .... WHAT?????....

Joest, Do you like the Qnique 14? I am looking at th Qnique 15R to replace a King Quilter and wasn't sure how good the Qniqe quilted.

Does anyone have a grace luminess led lighting over their long arm? How do you like it

I'm having trouble with my used Juki 2200 QVP tha is in a table instead of on a frame. When I try to sew over any seam, it just jams and won't go anywhere. Driving me crazy. 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?

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...

Hi, I'm new here but we just traded in a Juki 2200 QVP machine with automation last week for a Bernina Q24. I will ask our tech what might be wrong, maybe its an easy fix. I will get back to you tomorrow!

Have you tried using a stronger, sharper needle?
