    Red face Hi quilting machine
    Hello, I am new to your board. I am in Kirkwood Pa. I am new to quilting. Just learn in the past 2 years. I just got a quilting frame. Now I am wanting to find a quilting machine for the frame. If anyone can tell me what they use and like or dilike I would like to hear from you.
    Thank you, Linda

    Welcome from Louisiana I don't have a mid or long arm machine but if you go to the search feature of the QB you will find tons of information. Happy looking!

    Thanks. I have a Berninaframe. I don't know if I should get their biggest machine to put on it or and mid or long are. I don't know anything about mid or longarms but I want something that is big enough to do big quilts. Thanks Linda

    welcome to the board. I have just bought a handi-quilter frame and a juki98Q machine for it. Haven't got it set up yet but am looking forward to getting started. Will let everyone know when I get something quilted on it.

    After googling the frame I would probably go with a 16" or 18" midarm(longarm). I don't do pantos because I enjoy free motion, but this larger size would allow you to do the large pantos if you want to. You could also use the boards with grooves with this larger machine.
