I have had the Intelliquilter system for 15 years. In that time, I've quilted over 4,500 quilts, with the IQ system working flawlessly. Before I added the IQ system, I did all my quilts hand-guided... I would have quit longarm quilting years ago if I had to do them all that way- it's very physically demanding. So happy I added the IQ to my machine in 2009... I love everything about it.
