I rarely use mine. I never use it for quilting. I've used it in the past when making pillowcases and pajama bottoms. I broke one of the needles 2 years ago right before Christmas and I have yet to put a new needle in it. Just a couple of weeks ago I took it from underneath my sewing table and put it away in a cabinet. I bought a used Singer on Craigslist for $80. The owner had paid $300. It sat idle at her house too
