    Great find. You are going to have so much fun with this new machine. Keep us posted on the new things you are doing with it.

    I also bought a Brother quilting machine. It was 129 dollars several years ago. It is a good machine but did not have a needle down feature or a large throat so it is my fall back machine if my expensive one breaks down.
    It was well worth the cheap price and is still working fine. Yes it came with all the things you mentioned and that made it a great buy.

    Tippy,
    Congrats!!
    I bought the same machine a few months ago. It does great. My only problem is the throat is only 5.5". There is no way that I will be able to quilt a king on it so i'm going to try the fun and done. I've quilting a baby quilt on it and it worked out fine. I'm almost ready to free motion a lap size but that will have to wait for a few weeks. Going on vacation at the end of the week (Yeah!).

    Oh, and when I use my cone of thread to piece I place it in a vase behind the machine.

    Have fun!

    congrats on your new 'toy'....have fun using it! Most quilting is all straight stitching, you don't need the fancy stuff (altho it is fun too)

    warm quilt hugs, sue

    Have fun with your new toy. Take good care of her and she'll keep you in stitches for years to come. :lol:

    Fancy or not, it feels good to have a machine that is new, all yours, and on sale. Have fun.
