You've heard it all your life:  Little things mean a lot.  Details make the difference between just another quilt, and your work of art.  Old proverbs wouldn't last long if they didn't have a serious ring of truth to them.  As one of the original quilting machine manufacturers, A1 is here today because they pay serious attention to details in creating the most precision-machined, hand-guided long-arm quilting machine in the world.  We invite you to examine the details, welcome your questions and hope you'll compare A1's latest model, the A1 Elite Model 923  long-arm, with any other machine on the market.  This isn't just a sewing machine; its a revolution in quilting machine technology.

The A1 Elite long-arm is the only cast-aluminum (not welded) quilting machine made in the USA. This means the A-1 Elite is strong and sturdy, but extremely lightweight and easy to operate and maneuver.  It literally glides as it stitches.  A-1 designed a 9" x 23" throat to make it easy to thread and sew from either side, and painted away that old industrial look to keep you surrounded in beauty, whether you're quilting for pleasure or profit. (A-1 didn't think professional had to mean ugly.)  Inside are other important details.  Computerized, precision-machining, molded bearing mounts, gear timing and cast iron bushings may sound like Greek to you, but they all contribute to making the machine quieter, with smooth, precise, accurate stitching. A1 also added a hopping foot to ride easily over seams, and large machine hooks and bobbins, so you spend more time quilting, with less changing.  In short, they've kept the dependable, solid qualities of the 1950s, updated with customized features for today.
