Lenni


With Lenni, we have transferred our Millennium know-how to a smaller quilting machine. It is the essence of APQS in its simplest, purest form - a fun and affordable longarm. Everything is designed, engineered and crafted to be approachable, inviting and simple to use.
Lenni

Every APQS longarm is hand-built in Carroll, Iowa. From machinists to electronic technicians to fit and finishers, it takes 30 pairs of hands to design, craft and construct an APQS longarm. With the Lenni, we have transferred our Millennium know-how to a smaller machine. It is the essence of APQS in its simplest, purest form - a fun and affordable longarm.

The stitch regulator is the heart and soul of any longarm, and in 1998 APQS had an innovative breakthrough. We developed what is known as Adaptive Logic Stitch RegulationTM. This regulator performs with the skill and grace of a ballet dancer, making all your stitches extremely precise and accurate - where you want them, when you want them. As a result, quilting is fun and easy, reducing your practice time, and letting you always start and stop with beautiful consistent stitches.

Quilters often ask us, "How easy is it to learn and operate an APQS machine?" All APQS machines are simple to learn and easy to operate, but the user-friendly Lenni tops our list. With the simple touch of a button, you are off and quilting.

The tracking or movement system is an important part of any longarm system. The exclusive APQS BlissTM Track System option provides smooth and easy quilting machine movement, enabling hours of effortless quilting. You'll appreciate how effortlessly Lenni moves, and you'll be surprised at how fast you finish your quilts.  The BlissTM Track System is now standard on all new machines.
