Which Longarm Is Right For You?

Every quilter's journey is different.

Some owners want an affordable way to finish more quilts themselves. Others want robotics, larger workspaces, or the ability to quilt for customers. The best longarm system is the one that matches your quilting goals, available space, and preferred workflow.

As you compare machines, consider:

• Manual quilting or robotics
• Frame size and available room
• Hobby quilting or customer quilting
• Future expansion plans
• Training and ongoing support

Our goal is not simply to sell a machine—it's to help you choose one you'll enjoy using for years.

Janome Longarms

Janome longarm quilting systems provide an approachable entry point into frame quilting, offering options from 15" to 20" throat sizes with frame lengths up to 12 feet. These machines are a popular choice for hobby quilters, growing quilters, and owners who want to finish more quilts themselves without immediately stepping into a larger production-focused system.

Janome + Pro-Stitcher Robotics

Add computerized quilting and edge-to-edge automation to your quilting workflow with Janome longarms equipped with Pro-Stitcher robotics. Guided automation can help reduce quilting time, improve consistency, and make larger quilting projects more approachable for owners new to robotics.

Innova Longarms

INNOVA longarm quilting systems are built for quilters who want professional-grade machine performance, larger workspaces, smoother tracking, and long-term reliability. Available in multiple throat sizes and frame configurations, these machines are designed to support everything from personal quilting to customer quilting and production workflows.

Innova + AutoPilot Robotics

AutoPilot Mach 3 combines professional quilting software with powerful automation tools to help simplify edge-to-edge quilting, improve workflow efficiency, and reduce daily quilting frustrations. For many owners, robotics quickly becomes one of the most-used features on the machine.

Pre-Owned Longarms

Pre-owned longarm systems can provide access to larger frames, robotics, and advanced quilting capabilities at price points that may overlap with some new entry-level systems. Availability changes regularly, making many pre-owned machines unique one-time opportunities.

Training, Delivery & Support

Purchasing a longarm quilting machine is more than buying equipment. Millard Sewing provides hands-on training, setup guidance, delivery assistance, installation support, and ongoing help after the sale. Our goal is to help owners feel confident using their machine long after it arrives.
