Hello everyone, :)

I am here because I have a few projects I want to do that involve quilting, which I've not done before on a machine and my hand quilting knowledge is very limited. I also need a new machine; I'm close to pitch my 25 yo one out the window. :roll:

I don't want to spend a lot either so I'm looking at the Janome 6260QC which appears affordable... I'm still trying to find the price on that puppy. Naturally, I'm drooling over the Bernina's, but they are way out of my league. I'm also entertaining the Janome MC4800.

From what I understand the following features are desirable:

* adjustable speed motor
* infinite stitch length adjustment
* presser foot pressure adjustment
* needle down feature

I'm not sure the MC4800 has that pressure adj. feature though.

:?: Is anyone familiar with those two machines?
Any other suggestions in terms of machine and features would be appreciated so long as it's not more expensive.

TIA :)
