What machine would you recommend for someone like me?
I wouldn't recommend the Brother CS6000i for quilting even though it is advertised as a quilting machine. I purchased one just for quilting and it just simply has a hard time going thru several thicknesses of fabric and batting. I also have an Vintage Singer 201 and 301 both of which I feel are excellent for quilting. I also quilt for charity and make doll dresses for charity. Just my opinion.
