Machine Maintenance

Longarm machines are high powered, precision instruments that do not like to run dirty or dry. General maintenance like brushing out the machine and oiling it is something you need to do every day.

This isn't something that can wait for a yearly check up. Going into this purchase, you should be ready to take on servicing and maintenance of your longarm yourself.

Repairs and Warranty

If you run into issues with your machine, please contact us and we'll troubleshoot the issue together.

I've worked with many quilters and have made detailed troubleshooting videos covering most beginner issues.

If a part actually breaks on your machine, we will either ship you a replacement part for you to install, or have the machine returned to Grace Company for repairs.

LeahDay.com Guarantee - We cover the return shipping and cost of repairs on all longarm machines for up to 5 years.

Keep your Box! Longarm machines can only be safely shipped within their box and Styrofoam. Please keep your box and packaging or you will have to purchase a new box before shipping your machine back for repairs.

Description

The Q'nique 16X Manual longarm is the most affordable longarm machine Grace Company offers - priced less than $4000! This longarm is designed for beginning quilters needing a very basic longarm machine.

How is the Q'nique 16X Manual Longarm so affordable?

This Manual-Mode longarm does not have a stitch regulator. It's designed to stitch at a constant speed. The illuminated Q above the handlebars displays your speed setting and can be adjusted up or down by pressing the buttons on the handlebars.

This means the Q'nique 16X Manual longarm machine will not change speed to match how fast you're moving. Your stitches will get bigger if you move the machine too fast in relation to the speed you have set.

The Q'nique 16 X Manual is capable of quilting 1700 stitches per minute and the needle area is illuminated with bright LED lights so you can clearly see your quilt.

Two spool pins are located on the top of the machine along with a built-in bobbin winder so you can quickly wind the large M sized bobbins and get back to quilting.

Find the Perfect Frame to fit Your Space and Budget

You can bundle the Q'nique 16X Manual longarm with any Grace Company frame. Click the links to learn more about each frame and the space required to set it up:

  •  Cutie Frame - This is our smallest, collapsible quilting frame. Thanks to the frame's hoop quilting style, you can quilt even king sized quilts on this frame.
  •  Q-Zone Hoop Frame - If you have a bit more space and wish to set up your longarm in a dedicated area, this hoop style frame will fit your needs.
  •  Evolution Hoop Hybrid Frame - A great choice if you're short on space now, but know you may expand quilting space in the future. This hybrid frame can switch between hoop style quilting and rolling rail quilting.
  • Q-Zone Queen Frame - This is our simplest, most affordable rolling rail frame that can be set up at 5 feet or 10 feet long.
  •  Evolution Elite Frame - The Evolution Elite is the expanded, rolling rail version of the Evolution Hoop Frame. This frame can be set up any size between 7 - 12 feet, making it the most flexible frame Grace Company offers.
Quilting Beautiful Stitches on the Q'nique 16X Manual

To create pretty stitches on the Q'nique 16X Manual longarm, you'll need to learn how to move the machine at a steady pace to match the speed you've selected. This is very much like learning how to free motion quilt on a home sewing machine.

Practice and patience is the key. The more you quilt simple free motion designs like Stippling, the better you will get moving the machine at a steady rate and matching your movement with the speed you've set the machine.

Over time, you will naturally speed up the movement of your hands as you memorize your favorite free motion quilting designs. To keep your stitches small and beautiful, just dial up the machine's speed and keep on quilting.

    But I Want Gorgeous Stitches Right Now!

    Many quilters don't want to wait for pretty stitches, we want them right now. Does the Qnique 16X Manual Longarm seem like a lot of work to learn how to use? Keep in mind, this is a very affordable longarm with very basic features.

    The Qnique 16X Manual also doesn't have compatible Rear Handlebars. This is a necessary accessory for pantograph quilting from the back of your frame.

    For a little bit more money, you can get the Q'nique 16X Longarm, which includes a stitch regulator that will help keep your stitches the same size. If you're impatient for beautiful stitches and need your longarm machine to do more for you, please Click Here to check out the Q'nique 16X Longarm Machine.
