Reduced to $5500.00I am selling my Quilt Path system. It was purchased in late 2017. I am a dealer and will be upgrading to the newer hardware version for my newer machines. This has very little usage as it was for demo only.This will work on machines from 2013 - 2018 with the Toggle switches and bliss track.Includes carriage w/o the front bliss axle. you will just use your own bliss front axle.It was on a 12' table, so if needing a different sized belt, you can order from APQS.Software has been upgraded to the latest V5.I have the original shipping box. System is located in Toccoa, Ga. you can pick up, or pay for shipping.asking $6500.00 Rpatty@katydids.net or message me with questions.

Dealer maintained (single owner) machine for sale. I am selling this machine as I have 3 computerized machines and no longer need all 3. Need to make room in my studio.
This system is also equipped with the Quilt Path computer system, Version 4. This machine is very low hours as is it mainly used as a Demo machine in my shop. I have replaced the leaders and will do a service on it before the sale. Leaders are 120” so you can quilt at least a 112” wide quilt top.
I would like to sell as a package, but will split only if machine sells first. Package price $17,500.00 Machine is in Central Florida.(Brooksville)

No, I did not misunderstand you. I have the quick change feet on my machines, as well as a machine with the Legacy interchangeable hopping foot. And I just installed a quick change foot kit on an older Ult 1 for a customer. I was saying that with the new hopping foot kit, it is just a matter of loosening the one screw to change out your feet. this was in response to your question about is it really faster/ easier to change the new feet.
-
It is a matter of just loosening one screw, taking off the current foot and putting on a different foot. Kind of like changing a needle!
-
Here is one that was just listed.

You should post in the Quilt Path section where someone will know what you are talking about!

what set up do you have? On my Lucey and Millie, I usually run around 10 on the machine speed and then run IQ at 1.3 or 1.4 with details being .2 less than IQ speed. This will vary dependent on what I am doing. If I am doing something very detailed, I slow both IQ speed down and machine speed.

I will be putting my Lucey with QP on one of my smaller show tables to make more room in my Studio. I do not have the boxes to ship this, so it is pick up only. This table was black and I painted it to match my other newer frames. She will get new leaders. I am asking 3000. This table is for the Pre-19 machines. You can get a machine head, carriage and fabric advance from APQS, or I can arrange that for you.
Please email me @ patty@katydids.net for fastest response

Is this a Bliss table? I am in FL and have an 11" Deluxe Bliss table I want to downsize.

Gear box grease. They can develop an air pocket in the grease in the gear box. makes it sound kind of growly. Nohing to be concerned about as the grease is just there as a noise dampener. You can repack the grease to take care of the noise.
-
This lady does not respond to inquiries, but I do know that this IQ is sold. Wish she would mark it so.
-
Have you sold this IQ yet? If so, please post.
-
It will work on a Lenni with Bliss, you would need a new switch cable for Lenni, as the Millie cable is different.
-
Lisa, have you purchased a machine? Here is a customer of mine that is selling her 2012 Millie with Intelliquilter. The machine is in great condition, she is only selling to upgrade to the larger 30" machine. Here is the link.

I am a newbie and just have had my Lucey now for a little bit...I am wondering if I am oiling her too much or too little....the lower wick is always fairly wet so far and I have not added any oil to that one...but the top four...I have added as they are not as wet as the lower one....I get a smaller amount of oil on my finger when I test them....so...how do I tell if they are fine or need oil...should they be completely dry before I add? I did find a spot of oil on my practice piece after I let her sit in one place for a while.....does that mean I oiled too much? Thanks for any tips.....Lin
Lin, yes it seems you are over oiling. It should not be dripping onto your practice pieces. the wick on the side stays wetter than the ones on top as it is gravity fed from the others. As far as oiling the top wicks, just do it when they feel dry to the touch. They are not dry on the inside of the head as they too are gravity fed down to the parts that need the oil. I use my machines for several hours a day and only oil those wicks maybe once a week, or when I remember!

Lib, you need to isolate which direction. Is it happening in side to side motion or front to back. There are 2 encoders to regulate the stitch. One takes care of the front ot back and the other side to side. Once you know which one it is, then you can look at if it is the wiring, the encoder wheel or the encoder box.

Where are you located Stephanie. Have you test driven either machine? Both machines are good machines, there are differences in each, one may suit you better than the other. It is best to try out both and see what feels right to you.
Also check out warranty and customer service/sales rep support.
APQS is traveling around the country doing Roadshows and bringing the machines to the customer. There are several locations scheduled for March. Go the the main page and then events-roadshows. You can see dates and locations. This is a great tool to learn more about the APQS machines, test drive them and learn about the business end of quilting and suppliers. We will be doing one here in my studio in the Fl panhandle at the end of the month if you happen to be in the south.
Good luck in your research and feel free to contact any of us reps, or a rep in your area, with any questions.

Like Debbi said, it can happen from the thread coming off the spool unevenly or when the slippery threads sling off the spool. Have you tried tucking a piece of batting in the quide directly above the spool of thread? This can help to tame the slinging thread. You can also try the extra pigtail.
