Hi, I had a Handiquilter Avante for 5 years and put over 28 million stitches on it without any problems. I sold it and upgraded to a Mille in 2014. My dealer for Handiquiter was less than an hour away as is an APQS dealer. I chose to go with my Mille because I wanted a machine that could handle the quilting I do and one that I could fix myself and not have to possibly ship it back to the factory when there is a major problem. Service and support with APQS is excellent. Regarding bobbins I have had M style in both machines, wind my own bobbins and adjust very little in my tension unless I

I'm in. Jewel tones and 2 1/2 inch strips. Those of us in Canada or outside the US, will need to send money so postage can be applied at your end. Do you have PayPal account or a money order could be included with our strip set so you are not out the postage sending our bundle back.

Hi Lori I have red snappers but I think the principal is the same to make the casing sleeve. I measured carefully along the edge of the leader and folded over the edge the measurement that they recommended. I pinned this so it was secure and then attached my side clamps to the ends to try to keep the leader as taunt as possible. I used my machine to stitch along the edge to make the casing. It is a little slow going as you stop and remove the pins. I tried to keep my stitching as close to the edge as possible but it is still a little wavey. I did this to the 3 leaders and they seem to b

Thanks so much for your kind words. I have no ideas how I will quilt this top but I have gained lots of inspiration from all of you. I'll post the finished quilt pics. Thanks again. Debi -

Hi Linda, Finished my quilt top last night from the strip swap. I am in group 2 and received my strips on Feb. 8 and finished 33 days later. The pattern is called Rising Stars and is a strip club pattern from Cozy Quilt Designs. This whole experience was really outside my comfort zone as I like to organization placements of colour but I didn't even try. Really like the results. Thank you so much for hosting this swap. I will definitely take part again! Debi -

Linda, I received my strips on Friday in the middle of the snow storm. Sorry I didn't let you know sooner. I'm at a retreat this weekend and will start my quilt this evening. Beautiful colours. Thanks so much for such a great experience.
