Baby Lock Espire (BLSR)

I got bit by the quilting bug thanks to a friend who introduced me. Quilting now consumes my life! It’s a good thing I guess, or is it? The Espire is loaded with features it’s not even funny. Firstly, the machine is elegant in design and things appear where they should be. The large harp area and extension table, and the pivot feature makes quilting easier and thus more fun! It utilizes sensors to detect upper/lower thread breakage, low bobbin thread warning, and adjusts presser foot pressure so that the fabric is fed evenly. Needle threader and thread cutter are nice. It has a large touch screen and can connect direct to PC through USB (for updates). Max speed is 1,000 spm with speed control. Thick fabric and uneven layers is not a problem at all.
