I'm now considering a Brother CS6000i, to teach my DD and DGD, to sew. Just not quite ready, to let beginners use my Janome . . . and would like to teach them, on a machine they can take home with them.
Nessie,
I have the brother CS6000i and I love it! Does everything I need and the price was fabulous. I will warn you though if it's going to be a travel machine it may not be the best. I did read some reviews and the computer part is super sensitive and there is no handle attached. For a home machine it's awesome though!!
