I am interested in buying another machine also. I've been looking at the janome 6600 or the Ellna excellence (price $1400 for either). Now I understand that both these machines are the same , and made by the same people. I haven't researched the brothers PQ 1500 machine, but I will. And I'm going to look on Ebay.
Quilters, should I just consider waiting until I can buy a long arm? I priced a Tin Lizzie 18 sitdown for $3995. This is way out of my range at this time, and I don't understand quilting on a long arm well enough to spend this amount of money.
I would need to practice much much more. Presently I'm great quilting in the ditch and any type of lines,such as diagonals.
