I don't need anything at all fancy - - or expensive - - or that will do anything special. My old machine, a 1969 Montgomery Ward cabinet model that my husband bought for me our first Christmas together in 1969, bunches the bobbin thread. I've had it worked on several times, and it is so old, it won't stay fixed for more than a few seams. So after 42 years, I think it's time to say goodbye. It does straight stitches and if it wants to show off, zig-zag, and I don't really need a lot more than that. Well, maybe just a little. I'm thinking of a Brother SQ9000. Anyone had any experience with that machine? If so, any comments -- good or bad? Like I said, I don't do enough sewing to justify a lot of expense. Thanks.
