Best of Both

Here at Machine Quilter we celebrate how American innovation meets British ingenuity!


Our Machine Quilter frames are an American idea that has been brilliantly adapted to fit into English homes. Right from the start we've been keen to make American machine quilting products more readily accessible to the English quilter.

We're right here in Lincolnshire, UK; we can give our customers ongoing support, education and inspiration. Quilting is all about connecting with people. Because our frames are made here in the UK we are able to give our customers personal service. We offer free demonstrations and workshops for people interested in machine quilting frames. We also offer workshops, and Retreats so that you can keep on learning and growing. We also offer online support with website blog posts & video tutorials, Facebook and Instagram but we think that meeting face to face is vital. 


We became the original UK Distributor for Superior Threads so that we could offer the newest machine quilting thread ranges, just as soon as they come out. We wanted English and European quilters to be able to get the latest threads while they were still new and exciting.We began in 2003 and we've been connecting British and American quilters ever since.

On this day in 1989 I left Amercia with my brand new British husband. Now 6 kids and 30 years later we still celebrate the Best of Both. Happy 4th of July from machinequilter!
