I also do not have a lot of space in my home for my quilting. I have a Viking Sapphire 830. It's got a large throat space and has over 100 stitches. I splurged last year during a sale and got the walking foot that has snap on feet and the stitch in the ditch attchment for it...love it! I can piece and quilt on that one machine. I'd love to have the sit down HQ someday...I'm dreaming I think.
