May you and your new machine have many happy hours of sewing. I have a Singer Quilter Confidence, didn't pay much for it and I love it! It does everything I ask of it, has a wide choice of decorative stitches, easy to maintain and we've made some very pretty quilts together. Would I like to have one of the high grade machines? The ones that do everything, even make you a cup of coffee in the morning? Darn right I would, but I can't afford it and the Singer is doing just fine. I have another Singer, a Pfaff, and a Singer Serger so I'm set.
