I'm pleased to announce Grace Company has launched an incredible sale on all of their "X Elite" longarms! The Elite series are the best of the best, available for the Qnique 16X, 19X, and the top of the line 21X lines.
If
you're considering a longarm machine, it can be hard to know how to best compare one machine to another. What is the difference between the Qnique 19X and the Qnique 16X Elite - other than 3 inches of space?
I get this question a lot, which is why I
made this video below.
Just in case you're short on time, the 2 features I recommend paying the most attention to are
the:
Size of the longarm - Yes, that 3-inch difference between the Qnique 16 and 19 is a big deal. That's the difference between quilting a 12 inch block in one go, or having to split your design in half.
Speed - Pay attention to the stitches per minute (SPM) for the machine
you're checking out. 2000 SPM will likely be fast enough to keep up with you, unless you really have a need for speed. Our Qnique 19X Elite and 21X Elite which are both on this month's sale can both do 2600 SPM, which is extremely fast, even for me.
On top of the sale price, you'll also receive a host of accessories free with your purchase of a new any Qnique series longarm.
One More Tip for Ruler Quilting
Just a quick little tip today for ruler quilting: I like to do a little rehearsal run before committing to stitches. This helps to find the best angle and best side to use for ruler quilting.
That's it for this week, . I love this time of year! Things are finally cooling off and staying cooled off.
