It's the only machine I've used since I started quilting. Well, not really. It's the first machine I bought specifically for quilting and I've been using it for a few years now and I LOVE IT!!! You never hear anyone talk about it. It's always, Bernina, Baby Lock, Janome and so on, but never Simplicity. I've never tried any of the others because they are out of my price range, but my Simplicity does the job and I couldn't be happier. Thanks for this thread!!!
