I have a 301 that I use a lot for machine quilting, but this one is good too. It came with a box of accessories and a buttonholer as well, so the the 301 can borrow them I guess.
Congratulations, and you have a very nice Mom! Isn't the 404 a slant needle machine like the 403 and 500's? I am not sure that I have seen one? Can you post a picture?
