sewing machine - what size throat?
#1
I have a small domestic machine - brother runway model. I recently got a Flynn frame. Works alright, except the throat of my machine is so small, I can't do a wide pattern at all.
So, I am beginning my search into other domestic machines with a deeper throat (can't afford mid or long arm yet). I am curious what make/model you use and how deep the throat is. As well as what price range the model was.
Thanks.

The best machine a person can get if funds are limited and want a 9" throat is the JUKI. It is a powerhouse and I love sewing with it. I think the best buy is at Sewing Machine Plus, on line, unless you live in Ca. Happy Quilting!

I have a Janome Horizon and it has an 11" throat. I haven't done a lot of quilting yet since I've had it but what I have done, the throat size is wonderful. It is a bit on the expensive side though
