A lot has changed in 8 years and prices for longarm machines and frames have come down while the cost (and size) of home machines has gone up!
Yes, I am a dealer for Grace Company and I love offering these machines and frames because they are more affordable for hobby quilters. I love being part of this innovative company that creates new products to help quilters finish their quilts.
Check out the Grace Qnique 21 which was in the video with me: https://leahday.com/21
Also check out the Grace Qnique 15R, which is a wonderful longarm to begin with: https://leahday.com/15R
And we have a new Q-Zone Hoop Frame which you can put your home sewing machine on and it fits within a much smaller space: https://leahday.com/Qzone
