Oh, there are so many wonderful machines out there! I have to say, I love my Elna's. I have two, the 7200 Quilters Dream and the 6003. Both are wonderful workhorses that sew & quilt like a dream. But I also have a New Home machine that is a fraction of the cost of my Elna's and it gives me the most amazing, perfect stitches! I wouldn't part with that machine for anything! :D
