I have only been quilting about a year and love an old Pfaff that I inherited about 15 years ago but never took the opportunity to use it until I started quilting in November 2011... then I bought a new Janome 6600 and, once again, fell in love (especially with all of the new features). I also have a JC Penney machine that I bought when I moved out of my parents' house when I was nineteen. I used to sew costumes and crafts on it when my boys were young... I think it still works.
Until I get a long arm, I don't think I need another machine...
