I bought one on Craigslist, sold it on Craigslist to upgrade and bought an HQ16 on Craigslist. I know many people are afraid to buy on this site but most "quilters" are very honest and helpful. Good luck on selling yours.

Will you be moving to a place where you could buy a shed and fix that up to house it? That's what I'm doing. You could perhaps take in work to cover cost of shed once you get good at it? Just a thought.

First congratulations for winning a long arm, and condolences that you will not have room for it once you move. In reading several of the responses will give you some good ideas. Good luck on your move.

I am very leery of advertising anywhere that would have people come to my home...if you do that, at least make sure there is a man(or men) at the house when you show it. Advertising a quilting product is a huge sign that a woman is in the home...do not ever let anyone think that you will be there alone. To me, it would be worth losing a few bucks selling it on line and shipping...don't know your living situation, but if a person shows up and sees that you are older, and even if you have a husband, he's older, too...that gives a person a chance to scope you and your house out...be careful!!!
