Part of the reason that my '70 340 Duster may be disappearing!!

Keep your Duster and just make the payments on the machine. My wife is a quilter too, and gone to a quilt show right now! Her sister has a Handy Quilter? longarm machine that they both run the heck out of between the 2 of them. Does your wife's machine have the computer deal that makes it pretty much a CNC machine? Sister in laws is a free motion machine, but they have been buying these things called Groovy Boards. Basically boards with patterns routed into them to make the stitching consistent all over the quilt. A stylus follows the pattern on the boards and the machine stitches that pattern while the girls run the machine with the ape hangers....lol. She did a nice job on the one in the pics!

:thumbsup:
Thanks so very much on complimenting her on her work! It's an absolute pleasure to see her progression.

This stitching was done on this existing project by free motion to allow her to avoid issues as she worked around different parts of the quillow.

Her machine is a APQS "Freddie on a 12' table that has some computer assistance and a laser system. It's like when my wife attempts to listen to me babble about cars and I hear "parts is parts" for me to elaborate on details of her new pal!

This thing is a "hot rod" (??!) in her eyes and from the look on her face while she's "creating" it's probably like me going 0.00 R.T., dead on 0 and the W!!

Thanks again for the positive comment!!
