Meet the pairing Grace Company built for quilters who want longarm-style results in a real home: the Grace Little Rebel midarm sewing and quilting machine bundled with the Cutie Breeze tabletop quilting frame. Piece blocks at the table. Slide on the magnetic quilting plate. Mount the machine on the frame. Quilt baby through king-size projects with built-in stitch regulation, a 13-inch throat, and a portable hoop-style frame that lives on a sturdy table and stores in a closet.
This is the starter-to-serious home quilting system: one machine for construction and free-motion work, one compact frame that manages the fabric so you can actually finish quilts.
Most home machines fight you when you try to quilt a large sandwich. Most frames demand a spare room. This bundle does neither.
The Little Rebel is a true straight-stitch sewing and free-motion quilting machine—feed dogs and sewing feet for piecing, magnetic plate plus hopping foot for quilting, in under a minute. The Cutie Breeze is a lightweight tabletop fabric frame with dual-track carriage, overhead handles, fabric coils, and zone-to-zone quilting so you can finish any size quilt on a dining table, craft desk, or folding surface.
Together they give you:
Quilters describe the combo as “musical”—the machine is light enough to move, powerful enough to punch through layers, and the frame keeps the sandwich taut so you can focus on the design instead of fighting bulk.
The Little Rebel is Grace’s answer to “I need one machine that can actually do both.”
Workspace that feels like a small longarm
13 inches of throat length and 8.5 inches of height give you room to piece wide blocks, manage bulky seams, and free-motion quilt without constantly wrestling the sandwich. On the Cutie Breeze, that harp space is the difference between cramped doodles and real motifs between the rails.
Built-in stitch regulation
Optical encoder technology reads movement and keeps stitch length consistent whether you crawl through feathers or fly through meanders. Use regulated mode on the frame; use manual speed when you want full control. Speed selector buttons on the machine (Version 2 adds finer increments) make it easier to lock in stitch length when the Little Rebel is running on the Cutie Breeze handles.
Speed and power
Up to 1,600 stitches per minute with a motor that handles cottons, batiks, batting sandwiches, and heavier materials without bogging down. Straight-stitch only in sewing mode—so every stitch is a clean, strong construction stitch.
Switch modes in about a minute
No dropping feed dogs. No mystery settings. Sit-down free-motion on the included 18" × 24" extension base, or clamp the machine to the Cutie Breeze carriage and quilt from the handles.
Designed for real quilting sessions
Included with the Little Rebel (typical kit)
Machine, foot pedal, stitch control box for frame handles, sewing feet (including 1/4" and scant 1/4" patchwork feet, zipper foot), quilting / hopping foot, magnetic quilting plate, sit-down extension base, open-toe side quilting foot, needle packs (MR sizes 12, 14, 16, 18), needle threader/inserter, machine oil, training panel, and related tools. Exact accessory lists can vary slightly by dealer bundle—confirm at checkout.
The Cutie Breeze is Grace’s compact hoop-style frame: fabric stays managed on rails and coils while you move the machine.
Fits real homes
Approximate footprint around 52" wide × 27–40" deep (depth adjusts with machine and handle setup). Set it on any sturdy table that can hold the frame plus the machine (plan for roughly 35 lb of frame plus the Little Rebel). No permanent legs, no dedicated studio. Store it under a bed or in a closet.
Quilt any size with zoning
You don’t need a 12-foot frame for a king quilt. Load a section, quilt that zone, advance or reposition the sandwich, repeat. Crib, lap, twin, queen, and king projects are all in play. Fabric coils and clips keep layers rolled and out of the way instead of dragging on the floor.
Smooth dual-track carriage
The dual-track system is what makes the Little Rebel feel like it belongs on this frame—side-to-side and front-to-back motion stays even, which matters when stitch regulation is doing its job.
Built for comfort and control
Assembly is typically an hour or two with labeled parts and the included Allen wrench. Many quilters break it into a few sections for storage and reassemble in minutes.
Machine compatibility (Cutie Breeze)
Designed for domestic, midarm, and compact longarm machines roughly: bed height 1.5"–4.5", max width ~11", throat 8.5"–19", height up to ~16", foot-pedal cable 4.5'+. The Little Rebel is one of the machines this frame was clearly built to dance with.
One workstation. Two modes. Projects that actually get finished.
If you need computerized pantographs on day one, add QuiltMotion X / QCT as an upgrade. If you only ever piece and never quilt, a standard domestic may be enough. If you want to piece and quilt on the same machine, on a frame that stores away, this is the bundle.
Whether you’re piecing intricate quilt tops, free-motion quilting on a frame, or constructing bags and home décor from heavier materials, the Grace Little Rebel adapts instantly to your creative process. Its combination of throat space, regulated stitching, raw power, and rapid mode switching makes it one of the most practical mid-size machines available for serious hobbyists and growing studios.

Is the Grace Little Rebel a sewing machine or a quilting machine?
Both. It is a high-speed straight-stitch machine with feed dogs for piecing and a one-minute conversion to free-motion / frame quilting with built-in stitch regulation.
Will the Little Rebel fit the Cutie Breeze?
Yes. The Little Rebel is one of the primary machines Grace markets with the Cutie Breeze. The included stitch controller mounts to the frame handlebars.
Can I quilt a king-size quilt on a tabletop frame?
Yes, using Grace’s zone-to-zone method: quilt a section, advance or shift the sandwich, repeat. The frame manages bulk; you don’t need a 10–12 foot rolling frame.
Do I need a dedicated quilting room?
No. The Cutie Breeze sits on a sturdy table (~24" × 54" class surface is a common recommendation) and can be stored when you’re done.
Can I automate later?
Yes. The Little Rebel is compatible with Grace computerized quilting systems (QuiltMotion X for domestics / QCT ecosystem). Tablet is typically sold separately.
