    I have a Husky C10 for quilting.
    A Necchi for piecing
    A Janome 'classroom' model for binding.
    They all have their own stations,I never have to mess with tension or needle sizes, if some one has to go to the shop, some one else steps in. We're a happy little group

    I have a Wheeler Wilson treadle that use for decoration, found her at a little ice cream shop in my town for 50.00.
    I have a Babylock Symphony I use for piecing (love her)
    I also own a Babylock Ellisimo I use for embroidery, haven't had much time for her.
    For quilting I own a HQ Avante with soon to be installed Pro Stitcher.
    Finally I have the HQ 16 sit down model that is currently up for sale.

    I have a Janome 6600P and just love it to death! Of course just after I got it they came out with the Horizon...I will dream! But seriously, my Hubby gave this to me as a Christmas gift and I think it is the best gift he has ever given me because I use it every day! Financing had to happen because I know they do cost a mini fortune. Wish they didn't cost quite as much as they do. Happy stitching :)

    Cloverpatch,
    You can look on Craigslist and most likely find an awesome deal on a used one really cheap.

    Great Finds! Wow!

    You would love the 6600! I use mine every day and as long as I use the heavier thread (Gutermann) it runs smoothly :)
