Today's longer video is an overview of my new Grace Queen frame and Janome 1600P sewing machine. If you are interested in a longarm setup without the size and expense of a 'true' longarm, this might work for you. You'll hear about my setup in the first half of the video and see me actually quilting a test piece in the second half. I hope this will help to give you an idea of what it's like to have a quilt frame paired with a domestic sewing machine. If you have any questions, please comment or email me and I'd be happy to try to answer them for you.

I have the same Grace frame in the King size, but I have it set up only for the Queen because of space limitation. I use a Juki machine on it. It, too, is a single straight stitch only. I bought the pantograph with the stylus. I love my setup. You will too!

Wow, it looks great Angie! I have been thinking about getting one and now that I see it working I am excited!

Thats so helpful. i have the Janome 1600p, with a home made frame. I bought a sure stitch regulator, but you've made it look so easy with the one you have, i'm wondering if I've wasted a lot of money. I'm having tension problems with my machine and am a bit despondent. Your video has inspired me to keep at it!
