I have been a Bernina die-hard for 25 years. I have a 930, 440, inherited my mom's 430, and I just ordered a 820. You can a sew anything, trouble free. Quilting is limited to the size of your throat, but still has a nice stitch. One thing Bernina has over any other machine, is their tension and ease of sewing. My girls learned how to sew on the 930 and did not struggle with the machine once. You will love it. They are worth every penny. Congrats.
