My local dealer just got one of these in and I sat down and played on it for a while. You can get extensions for the side of the table if you need more support. It was wonderful. Price is up there though, about $5000.

You can see it on this website, it's about 2/3 of the way down the page.

That's pretty cool! I'm still wanting the Fusion or Avante'. Of course by the time I have enough money for it, there will be something else that takes it place.. :lol:

I've had my eye on a new Horizon but I think the HQ may have just taken it's place.

Well, I am definitely dreaming, but the HQ16 Sit-down system is what I want. Are you listening Santa???

:lol: :lol:

I am just a pinch away from the Avante.

I wanted an HQ but finally got tired of waiting for what I could not afford. Ended up getting the Sunshine 16. It is a step up for now and I will sell it if I can every afford the bigger fancier machines.

I got to use the HQ sitdown system and I really liked it, I was quilting a Project Linus quilt at the Houston Quilt show this year.

The HQ my dealer has came from the Houston Quilt show, it's a little cheaper because it was a demo setup, about $500 off, and he's going to pay for the shipping to his shop if you buy one.

How awesome!! You'll have to tell us when you get it and show pictures!! I love watching the videos!

lol, don't hold your breath, tuesy. A pinch for me might be 6 months ;-)

I found a local dealer that will let me practice for free on donation quilts. How cool is that?
