This is the NEW John Watts Quilter, famous for it's simplicity, engineering quality and it's made in Australia.

It is queen size - total length of 3 metres and will quilt up to 2.5 metres which is a little larger than queen size.  A king extension is also available.

What takes you 6 hours on most quilters takes 3 hours for the same work on the John Watts Quilter thanks to the new patented technology.

With all these patented features, any wonder why it is the only quilter in Australia to be accredited by the Australian Technology Showcase.

Ladies are using this quilter from India to South Africa, Zambia to Malta, New Zealand to U.S.A. & Canada to Australia.

No side tensioning required
  Most quilt frames use bungee clamps to side tension the fabric.  These clamps have to be taken on & off the fabric each end up to 50 times per queen quilt.  Thanks to the superior 4 roller system these bungee clamps are not needed on the John Watts Quilter hence saving time with a lot less adjustments.
