Looks like you have it right, it can be confusing for sure. Sharon

Love Circle Lord!!! Kinda hard to explain but It needs to face you at the back of the machine, as the little hole is used to line up your next row, Sharon

Hi, i also try to use a thin batting for the bigger quilts. This helps. Sharon

IF, what you need is the apparatus that screws to the machine and supports the stylus I have an extra one. I do not have the little metal bracket that secures appratus to the machine, but you should be able to find another bracket that will work. You can have it for the price of a small flat rate box. PM me if you are interested. Sharon

Hi, I have one I would sell. It's for an APQS without thread cutter. I'd sell it for $50.00 plus whatever the shopping costs would be. Sharon

Audrey, sometimes the top thread doesn't feed smoothly off the cone or spool. The thread when feeding off the spool gets embedded and then gets trapped/caught so it won't unwind evenly so therefor your top thread is pulled too tight and breaks. Try a different top thread, additionally the same scenario can happen with the bobbin thread. Sharon

You will really enjoy Lenni!!! Finishing my own quilts is so rewarding. Sharon

I'm going to jump in here, Jill you won't be sorry if you go with the 12 ft table, I promise. After spending the $$$ for a long arm it's hard to justify sending out the larger occasional quilt you MIGHT want to do. If I had a tight space I would consider getting casters so I easily move my LA to accommodate available space. When is use you could pull it out and when not in use you could push it back against the wall out of the way. Anyway, that's my opinion--and I love my Lenni! Sharon

Ohhhh Terry, wow you really did create a masterpiece. I love it and I'd name it The Butterfly Effect, or maybe not. Please keep sharing. Sharon

Wow, you are one very talented woman. I love it! Shoulda won a ribbon!

I have a Ruler Mate, without thread cutter, for sale. $65.00, plus shipping. Or save shipping as I am in the KC area and would be willing to meet at the KC Quilt Festival in Overland Park, in June, or ?? I bought it for my Lenni, but it is more suited for machines with a larger throat as on my Lenni the sewing field was too small with the Ruler Mate attached. Won't use and needs to go, Sharon

Wow oh Wow, you are soooooooo talented. It is always a treat when you show your quilting, thank you for taking the time to post. Viewing your art gives me a mental boost. Sharon

Hi, what size needle- I've found some fabric/batting combinations need a 4.5 needle. You might try a larger needle. Good luck and let us know when you find what works, I come here often to troubleshoot. Sharon

Hi, IMO it would depend on how you plan to use it, your budget, how much the machine cost, and what extras will come with it. I bought a used 2011 Lenni a little over two years ago, have done some 50+ quilts with no problems (after the first 7-8 months learning curve) and I am absolutely delighted with it. But I don't have a business, don't ever plan on adding a computer, and use Circle Lord boards almost exclusively. The older Lenni's have the vertical wheels and the tables aren't bliss compatible so I feel my circles aren't too great---but this may be an excuse for lack of skill. Also, if
