Thinking of Purchasing a Longarm Quilting Machine?
Are you thinking of purchasing a compact or longarm quilting machine with table,
but don't know what features to look for in a machine and table?
 

Would you like to move from your domestic machine and small table to a larger
machine, but are not sure if this move is for you?
                                                                FREE Longarm Test Drive  

Delightful Quilting & Sewing will schedule a personal longarm "test drive" on our 20" Nolting Fun Quilter and our 20" Nolting Pro
Series longarm.  You will have an opportunity to try out these longarm machines and have your questions about longarm features
answered.  

For example, you may be wondering what the difference is between standard and regulated stitch.  You may be wondering what a
pantograph is and how to quilt one.  You may want to do only free motion custom quilting and are wondering how to quilt great
designs.  And, if you are thinking about purchasing a mid or longarm, you might be wondering what machine and table features
are important to consider.
