I have been following you for several years now watching your videos on KZbin, enjoying them very much, by the way 😊, and just stumbled on this one. I just got the HQ Moxie about two weeks ago and I just to say that I'm really happy for you (and me!) and I know exactly how you felt that day because I felt the same way! I am so glad to see your video because I assume your machine and mine are quite similar, so I am sure you have some videos that will be helpful to me. Thanks so much for all your videos and keep them coming! God bless!

It took me about 3 hours from unboxing to finish. It was a lot of fun

[@TheCraftyAuthor]

Congratulations on your new long arm! Enjoy!

[@robertafrost6552]

UPS brought mine to my house.

[@shirley1091]

I am very happy for you to have such a loving husband. You two putting the long arm together without arguing is so great. I hope you expressed your appreciation to him.

[@redwingshave1152]

Such a good sport! You rock Brandon!!

[@user-xs4nn5vc9w]

You guys make a great team.

[@KP-gw5zv]

What great team work. Love it when a plan comes together. Also find it quite funny to see your husband lying on the floor to screw in the bolts. That is something I would do. Don't you just love how the instructions are clear!!!!! Not. I have no patience for instructions. Something that will probably forever on my bucket list to have. Looks way to hard for me to put together. Looks cool though. I think that I will be doing quilt as you go making quilts. Looking forward to seeing you quilting the quilts using the long arm. So exciting.

[@redwingshave1152]

Yay!! How awesome!! ❤

[@jennifermassello8670]

Sew fun! Can’t wait to learn!,

[@Gigiquiltss]

I know I’m 10 months late but congrats on your new machine. I never ever thought I would own one either but just bought my sweet sixteen last weekend and I’m waiting for it to be shipped. I cannot wait to play with it.

[@TheCraftyAuthor]

Congratulations on your new machine! You are going to love it! 🥰

[@ShelleyCook]

After seeing the beginning of your video I realized you are local to me! I'm about to go pick up my own sweet sixteen from the same location (though I got the 8' loft frame- got mine at the littleton store). Congratulations on the beginning of your journey and thank you for sharing this!😊

[@livingweirdestherc6644]

That is awesome 😊

[@annwray7442]

Congratulations

[@kbray78me]

It simply impresses me that Brandon can get on his knees that way No way No how would I be able to do that my knees are shot..this is so exciting…

[@TheCraftyAuthor]

He had a few choice words for me. LOL He is a good sport though.

[@EJsDaughter]

Congratulations! I got a pre-loved Sweet Sixteen (sit down machine) last month from RMSC in Aurora. Great staff!

[@TheCraftyAuthor]

Congratulations! Have lots of fun! I got mine at the Arvada store. ❤️

[@shirley1091]

What a great idea. Where does one look for a used long arm?

[@EJsDaughter]

@@shirley1091 I called my local sewing/vacuum store and asked what they had. Go in and test drive before making a decision.

[@dorrisdale6269]

It took my husband 4 evenings (with a little help from me) to put mine together. As you notices, the instructions are as "clear as mud".

[@TheCraftyAuthor]

I’m glad we’re not the only ones that thought that.

[@suzieq3006]

Did you use the built app to set it up? It came in really handy for me putting my loft frame together. Mine was delivered via UPS and I opened all the boxes in the garage and carried it piece by piece to the basement. Your lucky your hubby would help. Not mine lol. I also bought casters. Man are they nice. I have a very small area and now I can move it around. Now we wait for videos to see you use it 😊. Congrats! I know how excited you are. I was the same way! Enjoy! Wished do come true!

[@TheCraftyAuthor]

I didn’t use the built app. I sure wish I would have known about it. I’m glad it’s all set up now and I can use it. I am having so much fun with it.

[@lizthibodeaux2496]

I am so happy for you! We had boxes all over our house after mine was delivered in 2018! My sewing room is very small, but we miraculously got the long arm in there. Lol. What table is your Janome machine on, please?

[@TheCraftyAuthor]

My Janome table is a Sew Steady table for the Janome 9400.
