Pat Kuhlman 0 Posted December 30, 2018 Report Share Posted December 30, 2018 Ihave a older Millie, what I'm wondering is can you just up grade the head and not the table. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sue E. 320 Posted December 30, 2018 Report Share Posted December 30, 2018 I originally had a 2005 Millie and table. In 2008, APQS came out with a new light and a better location for their on/off switch. I upgraded my head and kept my 2005 table. I don't know about the newest machines, but I assume the head would fit on any table. My system is not blissed as I am computerized and don't do any free-motion quilting and decided I didn't need to spend the money to get the bliss rails. I still have my 2005 table and my 2008 Millie head. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
quiltmonkey 443 Posted December 30, 2018 Report Share Posted December 30, 2018 How old is your Millie? Chances are Yes, you can upgrade the head and keep the old table, but new heads require either 1) a new carriage to mount the new head on or 2) different axles installed on the bottom of the new head to fit your current carriage. Call the APQS office and speak with the staff there. They can help you get what you need. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Kueser 55 Posted January 2, 2019 Report Share Posted January 2, 2019 I have a 2007 Millie which I added an after market LED lighting and upgraded to Bliss several years ago. Never regretted that move even with the added expense of old vs. new. My machine is old and had it's first spa treatment last year and is running great. A couple of years ago added Intelliquilter computer. Love that addition also. quiltmonkey 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cheeky Cognoscenti 2 Posted May 22, 2019 Report Share Posted May 22, 2019 Kueser, do you remember how much it cost for your Millie’s Spa Visit (excluding shipping)? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kueser 55 Posted May 23, 2019 Report Share Posted May 23, 2019 The spa treatment was $1500 and I did a day trip up to Iowa to take it and came back a week later to pick her up. Other than the snow storm, it was smooth sailing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
