I have an Avante with ProStitcher. I upgraded mine last summer, but it looks like I need to check out the new upgrade. People don't realize there is still a lot of work going into computerized quilting. You can't just walk away and think the whole quilt will be done for you. But I am not good at FMQ so the pro stitcher is perfect for me. I bought my entire setup as a floor model that the store needed to sell so she could afford to get the new model in. I basically got the computer for free. Handi Quilter is wonderful to work with if you have any problems or questions. Their tech support is fantastic.
