High Speed Means Faster Quilting
With a range of 90-2,600 Stitches Per Minute (SPM) and built-in stitch regulation, this is a longarm machine that can keep up with your movement. If you'recomfortable longarm quilting,you want to be able to move your machine fast, and the Qnique 21X Elite has the power to keep up with you. There are also four different stitching modes:
- Stitch Regulated Cruise - With this mode the needle will always be bouncing, even when you stop moving the longarm. This is very helpful when quilting over bulky seams when you need to move slowly.You can now set the speed of the needle bounce, as well as the size of your stitches on your touchscreen monitor or with your handlebar buttons.
- Stitch Regulated Precise - This stitch regulated mode will create perfect stitches to match the speed of your movement and the needle will stop in the up position when you stop moving the machine. This is a great choice for ruler quilting when you need to shift the ruler, but don't want more stitches going into your quilt.
- Stitch Regulated Baste - Use the basting function and three sizes to load your quilt on your frame or baste the layers of your quilts to quilt on a different machine.
- Manual Mode - This mode turns off the stitch regulator and runs the long arm machine at a steady speed, which you can adjust on the touchscreen or with your handlebar buttons.
Leah's Favorite Features
I love my Qnique 21X Elite longarm quilting machine and how fast I canfinish my quilts. The stitch regulator and motor has the power to keep up with me, even when I'm driving fast!
One of my favorite features is the ability to set the stitch length and needle movement speed when quilting in Stitch Regulated Cruise mode. This is a really nice feature my original Qnique 21 long arm machine didn't have.
I also like the dimmable LED lights and the new bobbin estimator. It has taken me a little while to get used to using this bobbin feature, but now that I've figured out how much thread is on my bobbin, it's very accurate and has saved me from many unexpected thread breaks.
