    Congratulations and Merry Christmas. You will love your new toy. I had an old (1990) Gammill that I bought used. Kept it for about four years, sold it and bought the A-1. I love, love, love the A-1. It was like going from a dump truck to a Cadillac. The ride on the A-1 is so smooth. Enjoy every minute of it.
    We had to move the table in through the window, as well -- on the second floor...............

    What a nice Santa gift for you....my Santa gave me a Pfaff Grand Quilter with the Grace rails (5'-10'). I got it in September, but just now got it set up in my sewing room....haven't even had a chance to try it out..(tried it in the store and loved it). Now I need to learn how to use it. I have always used my HV-SE.

    Yes, I heard many many good things about A1's. I cant imagine trying to get that thru the window on 2nd story. Did you hire a crane? Thank you so much. Any tips techniques you would want to share would be appreciated. I had a Babylock QCP on New Joy Frame for 4 yrs so I learned alot, now Im ready to spread my wings,hahaha. I love it so far.. I have a quilt almost quilted. Just doing an edge to edge freemotion, then I will do something in the borders. Having a blast tho.
