I've heard of these frames but never could comprehend how they work. Needless to say, this frame is going on my wish list as I already have a brother straight stitch machine. <br /><br />We met at the Ann Arbor food truck night at quiltcon. I've been reading your blog for a while which is why your IG name sounded so familiar to me that night.

The only thing I wish it had is a free arm as the extra strength it has would be great for bag making :0( <br /><br />I use mine on a mid arm too - the New English Quilter - unfortunately it doesn't have the option of controlling it from the front, that's a great bonus to the Swiftquilter.<br /><br />Just a thought. Have you tried putting the Juki on the frame before loading the quilt? That way you can just thread the pole through the throat space and save yourself the funny manhandling!Catrin Lewishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10390088482382200616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3897344944533518603.post-41176175013686607872014-06-22T13:22:46.049+12:002014-06-22T13:22:46.049+12:00Love reading your review.

Your reasons for choosing the Juki are almost identical to mine, I got mine 2nd hand just over a year ago and love it. I posted a review at the time and it's one of the most popular posts on my blog so I plan on putting some more info together (especially for other Aussies & Kiwis since they're much harder to find here) and would love to include a link to this post if that's ok?Jessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00030501048730955322noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3897344944533518603.post-58323954704572660842014-06-12T07:32:00.646+12:002014-06-12T07:32:00.646+12:00This video is AMAZING.

How long does it take to do generally? <br /><br />Since I have a Juki, I was cracking up at the manhandling. I know that look so well!

I love that the prices and availability are relevant to me, too; it's not often that you can find really useful information that you don't have to mentally adjust to have it work for NZ! <br />I'm so glad about the price, that's very reasonable and definitely makes this seem within my reach.<br />Thank you for keeping the original take of loading the machine into the frame. It was awesome to see something so purely honest!<br />I'll be keeping a watchful eye out for when you try the extension for the table, I'd love to see how quilting a big quilt would go in this setup.<br /><br />Thank you for this post!cedacanthushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10279903568703311137noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3897344944533518603.post-69748060511507626212014-06-10T17:30:18.287+12:002014-06-10T17:30:18.287+12:00Thank you for sharing your review, it was really i...Thank you for sharing your review, it was really interesting to hear your thoughts.

So very good to see this review. I hadn't,t seen this frame arrangement before and woudn't have thought I'd be in yeah market for a long arm, so this has got me thinking. Great video! And nice to see you and put you and the kiwi accent together with your blog voice :-) I'm impressed at the very end of the video with what looks to be v fine control of the free motion.Camillahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17193180385628524129noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3897344944533518603.post-25128941843233022352014-06-10T07:25:57.184+12:002014-06-10T07:25:57.184+12:00I bought the Juki 2010q a year ago.

It does do the best straight stitch ever, though. I got a Janome 1/4 foot with a guide that fits on it, too. <br /><br />I do use a Bernina as well, for all the fancy stuff, but always use my Juki for piecing.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18263237465852863011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3897344944533518603.post-38512559119891005552014-06-10T00:56:00.921+12:002014-06-10T00:56:00.921+12:00Wonderful review.

I am really interested in that frame set up with the machine. I would probably want the extension as I keep doing bigger and bigger quilts but the it looks doable. I wondered if you compared this frame with like the Gracie frame (not sure who makes it) or any other platform converting frame before buying this one?Krishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10878998557547047744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3897344944533518603.post-82606993835608870172014-06-10T00:24:36.180+12:002014-06-10T00:24:36.180+12:00This review and video are Brilliant!

I just got a Juki 2010q (I'm in the US) about a month ago and I am loving it. My review of it matches to yours almost exactly, but I didn't splurge for the frame. It was definitely a factor in my considerations though, and I may invest in one in the future. thanks for taking the time to make this video, it was so cool to actually understand how the frame would work!Jeanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02807534045367412785noreply@blogger.com
