I loved this overview. So informative with plenty of details. Inspiring too. Please note, however, that the Q16 does not go on a frame (it is table only) AND the Q16 does not accept Q-matic. Those features (frame capability and automation) are currently reserved for the Q16's older sister and brother (Q20 and Q24).
Good information but still confused about the feet for the Q16. Just one .... the free motion foot? Are straight stitching or walking feet possible for stitch in the ditch?
I asked a Bernina this today and the answer is no, there's no ability to use the "feed dogs up" as needed in straight stitching. The Q series only does free motion or BSR work. (Too bad! Wouldn't it be great to use the expensive but very large tables needed for the Q series as you apply binding, for instance?)

Other reviewers of this machine say a frame is available. Confusing advice.
How would you take this with you when traveling? Is there a "trolley" specific to the Q16?
When quilting a large quilt on the sit down do you start quilting in the middle or from the top?

@@anotherday12101 I saw a video today that showed how to put the binding on the quilt while it is still on the frame
