Looking for a Millie or Freddie of My Own

[PamAnn]

Hi Everyone,

 

I've been quilting for a few years now and am really tired (literally) of pushing the fabric around to quilt.  I am so ready to bring a Millie or Freddie home to help me out.  I've narrowed it to these two as I demoed all I could find at MQX in Portland last week and I fell in love with these two.  I need a 2008 or newer as I need Quilt Glide.  I micro quilt and that feature with Bliss is truly amazing.  I know I can add these options, so if the machine price is right I can afford to add those options.  A 12' table is about all I can fit in my home without knocking out a wall.  Any pantographs, rulers, needles, etc. would be greatly appreciated as well. 

 

Looking forward to hearing from you and maybe we can work our a deal.

Pam Ann,

 

APQS have some great deals on their demo machines at the moment.  If you go to the APQS website and look for the dealers in your area, one of them may be able to help  you with them.  Theymay also know of some second hand machines that are close to you as well.

Great minds think alike!  I had also just received the demo machine sale notice, and was going to suggest that too.

Thanks for the info. I did receive the demo list from APQS, but the price is higher than I want to go. The Millies and Freddies are also equipped with the fabric advance. I really don't care to have that option. A good used machine will suit me just fine.

The fabric advance is wonderful.  Wait until you have to stop and release the ends and then move them etc.  I'd get a fabric advance before I'd get the quilt guide.
