timberlands Posted December 20, 2012 Report Share Posted December 20, 2012 Hi, I've never owned a longarm but would love to do my own quilting. I'm not in a rush but have decided to start my search for a used machine. I've seen several great deals but most are on the opposite side of the country from me. I'd love to be able to try out the machine before purchasing. From what I've read, I think I'd be happiest with a Millie but could probably go with a Freedom or Luci if I found a good deal. Thanks for any tips or pointers for this newbie! Susan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Katydids Posted December 20, 2012 Report Share Posted December 20, 2012 Hi Susan. Where in GA. are you? I have a Freedom and Millie w/ Bliss and I am in the Fl panhandle. I have customers in Ga and Al that would show you their machines, if you like. Or, if you are not far, you could come here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timberlands Posted December 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 Hi Patty, I am right at the center of the state, about 1 hr from Macon. You would be a bit far for me, I think. Susan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

queenie123 Posted December 31, 2012 Report Share Posted December 31, 2012 Since you have the extra time ,go all the way with a millenium as I did also ,that way there are no regrets in the end ,I even went with the 14 ft frame and loving ever last inch of it with no regrets at all buying a used 2000 ,it purrs like a kitten and glides so great since the new addition of the m&m wheels,I payed 10,000 but it came loaded with accessories I might not have bought otherwise ,good luck in your shopping ,you really cant go wrong with any apqs ,just be sure to ask for serial number .

nanbrug Posted December 31, 2012 Report Share Posted December 31, 2012 If you're still looking for a Millie Deloa Jones and Dave Jones I think just posted one for sale. Dave does the maintenance and so you would know the machine was in good shape. Plus maybe you would be lucky enough Deloa sometimes goes with Dave and you would have a chance to meet her and she always shares lots of tips and hints.
