I have owned a Tin Lizzie 18LS for 3 years. I quilt for friends and a few customers. Would like more customers as I really love quilting. After getting the problems solved when it was new, I have little problem with it. Likes most any thread. It's not as expensive as so many out there. But, I can do most anything I need to on it, from ruler work to microwork or free hand.

I got my Brother & New Joy frame as a package - used from a Craig's List listing for $1100 - which was an outstanding price from my research. If I'm recalling correctly, the frames alone are ranging about $1500. |

I had been quilting on a Bailey mid-arm with a Grace frame for about 3 years. I started looking around and purchased an Innova 18" with 10 ft frame (all my room will hold) last November. It was delivered and assembled and I was shown basic stuff. And off I went.... I use only King Tut thread top and bottom, as that is what I love and used on Bailey. The difference is like night to day! I have quilted about 10 quilts so far, and the head moves with one hand and little pressure. Tension, etc., is as it was delivered. It is a fabulous machine. The Innova dealer I purchased from offers a 3-day course at their facility in Utah, free, and anytime I want to sign up. Have never gone as I am doing fine and don't have any issues. And I want to stay home and quilt!!
I never saw this machine in person except for one brief time when I went to a local Innova owner's house to play a bit. Call me crazy, but it's the best purchase I have made in the quilting arena. PK |
I have the Statler Stitcher by Gammill and love it.
