Handi Quilter longarms · Oʻahu

Find the right longarm for your creative journey.

Try each machine in person. Experience the difference — with honest guidance, local training, and no pressure.

Local support

Certified local technician, hands-on training, and follow-up.

Time-saving

Finish more quilts, faster, with far less strain on your body.

Confidence

Try before you buy, then grow with a machine that fits you.

Overcoming fears

Yes, a longarm can work for you

The honest worries most quilters have before their first longarm — answered.

Longarms fit more spaces than most quilters expect.

  • Stationary tables need as little as 38 inches
  • Frames can require only 6 feet of wall space
  • Tables can roll on casters
  • Storage can be built under the frame

If there's room for creativity, there's room for a longarm.

Frames are fully height adjustable — you can quilt standing or seated. Many quilters work comfortably from an office chair. You don't need strength; you need support.

A longarm is a long-term investment.

  • Financing options are available
  • Some owners offset costs by quilting for others
  • Many quilters find the machine pays for itself over time

Unlike many hobbies, a longarm can grow with you.

Every longarm quilter starts at the beginning. When you buy locally, you receive:

  • Hands-on training
  • Follow-on education
  • Certified local technician support
  • Clubs and community

A longarm meets you where you are and grows with you.

Most owners use their machines more than expected. Longarms become part of the household — used for quilts, gifts, donation projects, and creative exploration.

What longarm quilting is

Room to see, move & create

A longarm gives you space and control that a domestic machine simply can't.

See every stitch

A wide, open sightline so you always see where you're going.

Move without strain

Glide the machine smoothly across the quilt, standing or seated.

Perfect stitch regulation

Beautiful, even stitches at any speed you choose.

Effortless artistic control

Freedom to quilt the designs you imagine.

Short customer stories

Island quilters, real journeys

From condos to country homes, across every island — here's how quilters found their fit.

Gloria didn't think she needed a longarm until she felt how much easier it was on her body. She flew to Oʻahu to test machines and now quilts whenever time allows between travels.

Gloria · Kīhei, Maui

Ruth thought condo living meant no longarm — until we found 38 inches of space. Her Capri on an Insight Table fits perfectly, and quilts are getting finished fast.

Ruth · Mililani, Oʻahu

Tish was gifted a Moxie with Pro-Stitcher Lite for Christmas and had it shipped to Molokaʻi. I visited for hands-on training and made sure she felt confident from day one.

Tish · Kaunakakai, Molokaʻi

At 80, Meriel wasn't sure she could learn to longarm with her physical limits. Today she quilts comfortably using an office chair and Pro-Stitcher with family support.

Meriel · Wahiawā, Oʻahu

Tina bought an Amara 24 with quilt-from-the-back as a retirement gift. A year later, practicing on donation quilts, she added Pro-Stitcher and finished 20 quilts in one month.

Tina · Kahala, Oʻahu

Six months after financing her Moxie, she was quilting for others and covering her payments — and then some. She was my very first customer.

Carol · Salt Lake, Oʻahu

Winnie and Lewis flew to Oʻahu to test drive before buying. Quilting is Winnie's creative outlet while caring for her daughter, and Lewis happily rearranged the space to make it work.

Winnie & Lewis · Makawao, Maui

Jan had never made a quilt but wanted to skip basting and finishing, and found room for a Little Foot Frame with Pro-Stitcher. Her first project was a memory quilt for her neighbor.

Jan · Wahiawā, Oʻahu

Anita planned to wait until retirement, but after test driving she didn't. She's quilting on her Amara 24 with Quilt From the Back and rulers on her grandson's quilts.

Anita · Hilo, Hawaiʻi
