I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this machine for both piecing and FMQing!!! And it runs just under $1000.
I agree 100%! I have this Juki and it is a marvel! I bought online for $800 two years ago. A friend of mine bought one off of Craigslist a year ago for $800 and it came with a quilting frame! I see lots of quilting machines on Craigslist and if you are persistant, you can find amazing deals. People buy them, then don't use them or don't have room.
