I recently bought the new Singer Featherweight, and I really like it. It sews smoothly, has some great features of some of the larger machines as well as a removable larger table/platform. Did a class on the coiled bowls and this machine had a wider zig-zag than the new Brothers that the school had just purchased so my piece was nicer looking and easier to do than the other pieces. I don't have a designated sewing space to have to move my machine each time I want to quilt.
