I have a White/Jaguar that's probably older than that! And I do like it because it is so easy to thread, which was not always the case with those older ones. But I'd love to have a newer one that does rolled hems more easily. Since I'm getting ready to retire (6 days!) I plan to have more time to quilt and "make stuff". Have to lock DH in his woodshop though to keep him out of my hair....
