So you want your own longarm quilting machine?
It happens. Visions or your own longarm quilting machine dance through your head. You want one… now!
These visions may appear as you look at the pile of tops, neatly folded in a closet. Or you imagine a Statler Stitcher humming in the next room as you make dinner or piece more quilt tops. Maybe you’re at Burlington Electric Quilters… it’s time to go home and you don’t want to take your quilt off the frame. You just want to keep quilting!
Louise can help make these visions reality. She’s a certified Gammill Sales representative who can answer your questions, help map out your quilting space and your longarm quilting goals.
A longarm machine is quilting joy – and responsibility.

Louise reminds you:
| Pros of Longarm Ownership | Cons of longarm ownership |
|---|---|
| Quilt anytime you like! | Longarms take up a lot of space. Relocating them when you’re not using them is time consuming. |
| Leave your quilt on the frame. | You need to build your own thread and pattern stash. |
| Customize and experiment to your heart’s content. | You’re responsible for basic maintenance and troubleshooting. |
| Get to really understand your machine. |
What is Louise’s advice? Rent longarm quilting machines to build your skills. Try both the Statler Stitcher and the hand-guided machines. Benefit from her experience, explore patterns for the Statler and hand guided machines. Enjoy the Burlington Electric Quilter’s thread collection. Try a longarm subscription to see if you really will quilt as much as you plan.
Get a few quilts under your belt. Make sure you’re comfortable with loading, rolling and quilting, threading the machine and changing needles. Once you’re comfortable using the machine, take it to the next step.
