    Welcome from Scotland.
    I'm sorry I don't have a long arm quilting machine, so I can't advise.
    Good luck with your search.

    Whatever you do, get a speed regulated system. It makes learning so much easier.

    As far as brand, I'm partial to KenQuilt mach. You can't get more for the money anywhere.

    Oh, Welcome from MO
