I'd love to hear about how you like your sit down Sweet 16. I'm thinking of getting one. Was there a big learning curve or did your skills from quilting on your regular sewing machine translate right away?

Thanks for any comments!

Absolutely no problems, it's a joy to use. I have a Bernina with a stitch regulator, but I learned FMQing before getting that, and using the HQ is easier than doing FMQ on a non stitch regulator domestic because you can regulate the speed the machine goes at, put your foot right down and move the quilt according to the speed you have set.
