Are you talking about just the quilting? Because then a longarm or sit down midarm might be for you. While the 240 might be great for piecing and binding, it only has a 6" or so harp, I can't imagine quilting anything bigger than crib sized on that! The 820 has the biggest harp (12") on a domestic machine, so anything else is going to be much smaller. I have a 440 which is superb for piecing and quilting, and I know of a few award-winning quilters who use it for everything including quilting queen-sized quilts, but I wouldn't like to quilt a large quilt in its 7.5" harp. My Baby Lock Quest Plus is also excellent, but I never use it for FMQ because I use the BSR. I'm just getting acquainted with my 820, but I can't imagine any currently available domestic sewing machine (except the 830!) being better for quilting.
