I have a megaquilter and my friend has a juki but they are around $1000. Thanks!!!!
My suggestion would be a Janome 6600 or the New Horizon...unfortunately it would probably give someone a heartache with the price. I love my Janomes and toot its horn every chance I get. I've had mine for 6yrs and you just can't beat the Accufeed feature. The machines take whatever I dish out, and somedays, its alot.
