Lucky you and what nice quilting. Do you know why you broke so many needles at first? I recently got a quilting frame and have also broken quite a few needles?

There's enough batting under the frame I can sleep there. :lol: :lol: Doesn't it look like it would be comfortable? Who needs a bed.

Congrats on your new "toy". heehee.
I would give my right leg to have one of those.
Can you tell me the size of that, please? I live in a mobile home and was just wondering how many walls I would have to take out to get one like that in here.{ haha} And what does one of those run? Cost wise. Of course, not including all the pretty fabric you have to have to go along with it. lol
Thanxs and I know you will be having fun with it. Hope you take a minute to read all your mail..............haha

Littlehud, how did you come to choose a Grace LA? I never thought I would want a long arm: space and cost! However, lately I have been more interested for 'some day' in the future. So, I am interested in how people pick the LA brand that purchase. Thanks. you are ready to quilt now. Linda

You are lucky!! And your quilting looks great. I also have a shortarm machine on a frame, and I like it very much. Sure makes getting those quilts finished a breeze!!
