My comment was poorly written.

It wasn't the stitch length that was really tiny, it's the machine itself. Which, of course, makes it easy to transport - but doesn't give much room for...

I'm one of the few who didn't love mine.

I bought it specifically for use at classes/retreats/sewing days, as they are so portable. Compact and lightweight, unlike my Bernina 153QE - which is...

Adorable!

Did you keep the measurements you used, and if you did, would you be willing to share them? This would be a cute quilt in most any focus fabric, I think.

I'm not surprised; what isn't going up and up in cost? Many corporations are making record profits.

Wow, I don't know where they are selling for that much. In the Finger Lakes area, you can get them for under $500. Like many things, I guess, it's all about location.

Even if I wanted to, there's no way my shoulders and neck would allow me to quilt anything larger than a baby or small throw. Too much tugging and arranging of the sandwich needed.
