Hi, Kif,
Thanks so much for the response. It's nice to get a different perspective on a Brother machine, which was one of the brands I had not heard great things about. In looking at the two early Brothers you had, I might have to seriously consider them--they seem like a lot of bang for the buck.
I'm curious, did you trade the Janome Horizon for the Juki or do you use both? I've been hearing a lot of great things about Jukis.
Thanks,
Azita
