A Longarm Machine Is a Big Decision. Do the Math First.

A longarm quilting machine can run $16,000 to $65,000. Before you commit, you need real numbers — not guesses.

  • "I'm thinking about buying a longarm — but will it actually pay for itself?"
  • "How many quilts per week do I actually need to break even?"
  • "I need to show my family this can work before we invest."

A Note From Andrew

If you're thinking about starting a longarm quilting business, the smartest thing you can do is see the numbers before you buy. How many quilts do you need each month to break even? How long until the machine pays for itself?

This tool answers those questions for specific machines, your hours, and your market — so you can plan with confidence instead of guessing.

— Andrew Weaver, host of Quilting Business Success Podcast
