visited the quilt show in oaks, pa. always looking at long arms, but aware they are out of $$ reach. stopped to see Pennywinkle"s Sunshine 16 series. machine only can be used on a table (rather than quilt frame) and runs somewhere around $1500. Has anyone heard of this company? Any where I can get info I would be glad to hear from you all.

Welcome to the board from Southern California!!

Hello and welcome from SW Iowa. Glad to have you here.

Welcome from Northern California!

I have an HQ16 Sit Down on order, due in October. It's the same machine that they sell as a LA with frame, carriage etc., but set in a table 36in x 30in. that you sit down at. I have never seen it advertised, only demo'd at a show I went to.

You can also look in to the Bailey. It comes in a 13", 15" and a 17" machine - and can be used as a sit down or on a frame. The price is pretty comparable to the Pennywinkle.

I've heard of the Sunshine but don't know anyone that has it tbh
