Letter From The Top
Dear Friends, 
Good news! The INNOVA factory in Houston was spared from the devastation of Hurricane Harvey. Although water crept dangerously close to the Montgomery, TX buildings, INNOVA remained dry. Factory employees are also safe and back to work. We are feeling grateful for the gift of work and the necessities of life.  So work continues. Look for ever growing opportunities for your machine quilting success and for news about our Indianapolis store opening soon.
We look forward to making your quilting easy!
Best regards,
Jeff Benedict
President/Owner
Navigator P2 Release!
An incredible upgrade for the Navigator software.

Things you have come to love like swiping task bars in and out, double tapping to bring up menus, pinch and zoom, are now included, making the Navigator P2 modern, up to date and fun to operate.  The new Navigator P2 sizes correctly to properly fit the tablet screen and the buttons are much easier to read and touch then before.  Plus, the buttons are modifiable and pinnable just like Mach 3.  More features in Navigator P2 : Undo, live update in multiply, axis locks, extra options in nudge, help screens, draw, text, active zoom, pan, add a background image, change colors, pattern pad manager, positioning.
 
Please note: Navigator P2 consumes a considerable amount of memory and takes more processing speed to operate properly.  Therefore, any customer looking to upgrade must replace their old tablet with a new Microsoft Surface 4 Pro with I5 processor and 4GB of RAM or better.
