HOW IT WORKS — Pick. Place. Quilt.
Every project, from your first pantograph to a pretty flower block design, follows the same three steps.
Pick a design. Browse the built-in library, buy from the Grace Design Store, or import your own designs.
Place it on your quilt. Roll your longarm over your quilt block and align the needle with the four corners. Tap the nodes on the screen to "place" the design using your quilt as a guide. The tablet gives you a preview of how the design will appear, fit perfectly into your quilt block.
Quilt it. Tap start and QMX stitches it out. If a thread breaks or a bobbin runs out, you can repair the pattern easily by navigating back to the exact stop point and pick up right where your left off — no ruined block, no starting over.
What's Included with All Tiers
All tiers of QuiltMotion X for Longarms include the following:
Computer Tablet - With QMX you don't have to be computer savvy. A tablet is included with the software preinstalled so assemble the hardware on your frame and longarm machine and you're ready to start quilting.
Free Motion Quilting Mode - Easily disengage the belts for free motion quilting or ruler quilting without having to loosen them by hand.
Needle Position Tracking - The QMX system tracks your movement when you're free motion quilting so it knows where the machine has moved while the belts are disengaged.
Frame Boundary Mapping - Record your maximum frame space and the QMX system will automatically update for the fabric-roll growth.
Over-the-Air Updates - Update via the app using a bluetooth BLE connection to the machine hardware.
Channel Locks - Easily lock the machine to stitch straight horizontal or vertical lines. Far more accurate than our mechanical channel locks!
Design Library - Collection of designs to quilt built into the tablet. All levels will have 50 designs preloaded. Discovery has an additional 10 designs and Mastery level gets an additional 20 designs to quilt from day 1.
Grace Design Store - Browse, buy, and download new quilting patterns instantly to your tablet. All tiers will include a subscription to the Grace Design Store for a set period of time.
Design Import - Yes! ALL tiers can import designs! Import SVG or QLI files to your Grace Design Store account and they will appear instantly in your QMX Design Library.
