Wow has this been a weekend for me.

So my friend bought the Bernina 440QE for "us" to use. Nice, well she was over and we played with it alittle and then I packed it all up because she has a class on it this Wednesday.

Anyway she brought over her old machine that I thought was a Singer, I thought it would be nice to ahve if any other friends wanted to come over and piece with us for fun.

Well it turns out it's a Vicking Interlde 435. She said, well you can have this old machine, what am I going to do with 2 machines. It doesn't have a 1/4 foot or the walking foot, but I was thinking of getting the 1/4 foot to see if I like sewing on it better than my Kenmore...what do you think? Is this a better machine? Should I invest the $100 for the walking foot? I will be quilting most of them on her new machine with the stitch regulator. But wondered what your thoughts were?
