I love my 300e Janome. I had a Viking combo, but traded it in for a Janome 6500 for quilting and a 300e for embroidery. That 300e is a work horse. I can quilt as I embroider. She never gets jammed and is so easy to use. I download a ton of designs from the internet. I have embroidered quilts, have done towels, bookmarks are a gem to put into cards as a little surprise, adorable baby things, etc.
