I love love love my Bernina 440QE I was always a Pfaff person before I got this machine and since I do all of my quilting on my home mahine I bought it for the stitch regulator which is absolutely wonderful for FMQ and thread painting I very seldom use the Pfaff anymore as the stitches are so nice on this machine I even bought the second one for my daughter expensive yes but well worth it
3000.00 dollars
