I have been quilting for around 11 years now. I started out with a little Singer purchased from Sears. Then I went to a Brother CSi6000, that machine did not like me at all, so I sold it. I now have a Brother Laura Ashley Innov'is NX-2000 and I so totally love it!!!! Sews and quilts like a dream.
I also have an embroidery machine. Started out with a used ULT2001, loved it but it sure made a lot of noise. I now have a Brother Innov'is 4000D upgrade to a 4500D and I so totally love it. I tried quilting on this machine and it quilted like a dream, but I was just putting to many stitches on it, that is why I got my Laura Ashley, its the same as my 4000d but no embroidery. I have thought about selling my embroidery machine. Its been a few years since I actually sat down and done any embroidery with it. Then I think sure enough I sell it then I will want to embroider something.
