Go back to your dealer for a lesson. I bought my Horizon a year ago and truly love it. Best machine I've ever had. I haven't explored all of the things it can do, but I will eventually get there. My dealer has a once a month quilt class where we are making a block or two a month and each month we use different stitches, etc. on our machines. It has taught me so much about my "Big Red". Be sure and read your manual -- I go back to it often and it's amazing how much it helps.
