Little Rebel Straight Stitch Sewing and Quilting Machine | Grace Company Sewing and Quilting Machine with Stich Regulation

The media could not be loaded. If you're new to quilting or have limited space, the Little Rebel is a fantastic machine to have! It's perfect for piecing with its straight stitch ability, and for quilting free motion or on a frame. Even better is that it can be automated when desired! I paired my Little Rebel with the Cutie Breeze table top frame because that's all the space I have (for now). I've already learned how to use it with a laser guide to stitch pantographs, to free motion quilt, and now I've added the motor and tablet to get it to stitch from edge to edge on my quilts. I own an even dozen sewing, embroidery, and quilting machines, and this one is as awesome as my big name machines, only for a much more affordable price. I can control the speed of the machine with the buttons on the front. It's heavy to me (though DH can lift it easily), but that's what I want with a quilting machine. I've already quilted about half a dozen quilts with my LR, and have had perfect tension with every one. I love that the bobbins are the extra large ones, and that I can wind them on the top of the machine! If I could give the Little Rebel 100 stars, I would!

Beautiful machine, still learning the ins and outs of it but am very happy so far

This sewing machine is going to make quilting affordable. It offers a stitch regulator in the machine. The machine is attractive and offers a very large throat space. It sews nicely and is easy to change over to quilting. It fits on my quilt frame well. I will be using this for as long as I am making quilts.There are several things I don’t like. It uses sewing needles that are different and not as easy to install. There is no automatic thread cutter and the lever to raise the sewing foot is difficult. But since I will use it for quilting, this lever will remain down. Although instructions for threading the needle are printed on the machine, it has places that are more difficult to thread. The bobbin is located under the front of the machine and offers some challenge to put in bobbin case. However, there is lightning in strategic areas. Even with these items that don’t seem user friendly, the machine is worth purchasing.

Stitch regulator does not work either push quilting or on a frame. Expensive mistake. Just like buying a 1K$ Accuquit stitch regulator for your domestic: it DOES NOT work and you are scammed. Grace machine sellers are not allowed to tell the truth either. Do not get scammed.

I’ve had this machine for a month now and created 2 quilts with it. The controls are easy and threading is a breeze. Switching from sewing to quilting is 3 easy steps. Most important for me is that it fits in my very small but creative work space weather on the frame or desk. It case use a carrying case for transport. Since it only weighs about 30lbs. I do see my self taking it to quilting retreats.

The machine is attractive and amazing, and I haven't had any issues so far. I plan to tackle leathers and furs. Customer service is beneficial and honors your warranty! Highly Recommended!

Easy to use right out of the box. Quilted a baby quilt in about 30 minutes. Learning curve not too steep. Easy to follow directions. Lots of info included. Didn’t disappoint. Looking forward to using it more.

I love this machine. It is easy to use and the stitch quality is great. I was able to machine quilt a queen size quilt quickly and easily compared to quilting on my Bernina 480. The order also came quickly-within a week.
