Moving a Longarm to a Grace Qzone Frame

A few weeks ago I moved my Grace Qnique 15 inch longarm to my smaller Grace Qzone frame. I’m still getting used to using this machine on this smaller frame and I love how much more space I have to quilt in!

Click Here to learn more about this Grace Qzone frame. This frame is really neat because it’s only 54 inches long and you can use your home sewing machine on it or a smaller longarm! I previously had a small Juki F600 on this frame and you can see how that worked in these videos:

Stitching was very, very easy on the Qzone. The Qnique on the frame loved stitching in all directions, and straight line designs, zig zags, curved designs, and circles were all easy to stitch out. I loved having so much space to quilt in!

I found mounting the larger Qnique 15 inch longarm to the Grace qzone frame definitely made for faster quilting than what I experienced on the home machine Juki.

That’s it for this week’s Frame Quilting Friday. Click Here to check out a lot more videos featuring both longarm quilting and frame quilting.

Let’s go quilt,
