Cool Looking around for machine....suggestion for

I would suggest the Janome 3160 if this is a machine for travel or back up. It has the auto thread cutter, which I use for all my piecing and for classes. It weighs only 11 lbs. if weight is in an issue. If weight is not an issue, I would look for a Janome 6600. It is wonderful, with the AccuFeed foot and a lot of other nice amenities. For the Cadillac of quilting machines, I just got the 8900. Of course the budget keeps going up from the 3160 to the 6600 to the 8900. Janomes are great machines that last for a long long time....

Best wishes in your hunt.

Anyone have an opinion on what has worked well for a back up? I am seriously confused at this point and just want some honest opinions. thanks![/QUOTE]
