He said it has a better frame and better electronics than the Tin Lizzie 18 (one reason why the 18 is being closed out), the stitch regulator is better too. So... I got the Queen Quilter.
If I have a problem I ship it back in the box and they pay shipping. Free servicing. They have 15 employees, including 3 mechanics and experienced quilters, and any question or problem they will help me with. If there is a problem they can't solve over the phone I ship it back for free to be fixed.
Best of all he says I should receive it on Thursday!!

Thanks pittsburgpam! The main thing I learned with this quilt was how to carefully go back over my line of stitching and not veer off course. The first few leaf veins look like a drunk did them but I quickly improved.

Wouldn't you know it... My son called tonight asking if he could stay at my house during the week. He's working on a job an hour from me but is several hours from his place. I told him he can have the small bedroom because the big one is going to have a quilting machine in it.
He can also help me move the bed out and set up the machine. :-)

Pam - I'd say your son has perfect timing! Once he's done with moving the bed and stuff, hand him the vacuum. ;)

lol... Thanks for reminding me.
But that also has me envisioning walking back and forth in front of, or behind, the machine and the wear and dirt on the carpet. I have some old area rugs in the garage and it might be good to put one over the carpet.
