Micro Handles

[readysetquilt 0]

I was thinking of ordering the Micro Handles to do dense custom quilting. Can anyone tell me about their experience with them and whether they think this is a valuable add-on? They are quite expensive and I wonder if you can get the same effect by lowering the handles on the Freedom machine so they are closer to the quilt surface.

Thanks!

Are you Blissed? I found after adding Bliss, that I didn't need the Micro handles.

I don't use my micro handles as often as I thought I would, but when I want more control they are my go to device. I wouldn't give them up; they take a bit of practice; I use them sitting down on my saddle stool. You can advertise here for a used set perhaps someone wants to part with and save some money.

Thanks, Lisa. I would like to be able to sit down to do micro quilting. Does anyone out there have a set of APQS Micro Handles for sale?

Hi Melinda: Thank you for your offer but I found the Micro Handles off-site and bought them. I am also looking for the Hartley work table, if you have one of those for sale.
