I got a Horizon after managing with a Babylock QC for 5 years. After 3 months, I haven't found anything it can't do well. I've been teaching myself free motion (using guidance from Leah Day's site, machingers and super slider), and suddenly I'm FMQ'ing a full size quilt. Whee! I don't like much jewelry so I guess this is my diamond necklace but way more useful.
