I did it! I went and tried a Pfaff Expression 2.0 that was at my local quilt shop and I loved the fmq on it, it has 10" throat space. It is a floor model they are selling and I put it on layaway. She is adding the 1/4" foot, which she thinks should come with every quilt machine, and the straight stitch plate, along with the original accessories. I can't wait to get it. I also decided to keep my #1+. I have a couple of GD I hope to teach sewing and quilting. I will update when I get it.
