I have a newer Janome that embroiders as well as sews, and one that sews some fancy stitches that my other machines don't. I also have a serger that I use quite often. But - the Janomes are heavy and I was worried about messing up their computers when I took them out for quilting trips, so I got a Featherweight. Then I saw a 99K13 in a bentwood case with a knee bar that I got for $40 - I just it because it was pretty - the woman had used it as a display piece. Well, I was thinking of doing the same until I sewed with it! Then I started just running into Singers - a 401 that did fancy stitches for $25, a 201 with a beautiful oak table for $40 (that happens to do wonderful free motion quilting when you learn how to drop the feed dogs!), and my SIL gave me a White FR treadle. The 99 and the treadle live in the dining room (and look great), the rest are all set up in my sewing room and I've been using them all!
