Well I did it! I went and tried the Pfaff Expression 2.0 today. I did some fmq and I loved it. I played with it for awhile, it stitched with no problem. It didn't seem any louder than my l+. I love the 10" throat, I didn't feel so crowded doing the fmq. I put it on layaway, so I didn't bring it home yet. She is going to go through it completely before I pick it up, also she is going to add the 1/4" foot, and the straight stitch plate. Now I just have to wait. I was really surprised that my fmq was alot better, smoother curves, on it than my #1+. She said it was probably because I wasn't feeling cramped because of the 10" throat. I can't wait to get it. I want to Thank you all for your help and information.
