I have a wonderful Brother Innovis 2000, that I love, but it is really too big to take to sewing retreats, etc., so I am just looking for a smaller machine to carry about.
I'm in need of your knowledge...
He's right. True. You won't be happy with it in the long run.
That may not be true. I'm very happy with mine and so are a lot of others on this board. Many quilters have bought the lower end Brothers and have been happy with their purchase. I have 3 Brothers and haven't had any problems with any of them. She could purchase one and try it for a few days and if it doesn't meet her needs she can always return it.
