If you have a Bernina, you already have a machine that sews all types of fabric evenly. I agree with the earlier post, get a walking foot for your Bernina, and then when you get farther down the road with your quilting, you will know more of what you want from a machine, that your machine is not doing. I used my walking foot on my Bernina for garment sewing long before I started quilting. What is your older Bernina? Many quilters on this site have said their older Berninas were the best for quilting.
