I finally settled on my new "little" machine. I don't even want to call it a back up machine, it's too nice! I'm going to have to find space to set it up so I can always have it out. It's too nice to put in the closet!
It's a Janome 3160 QDC. Best small/portable free-arm machine I could find that had the scissor cut button. I'm so spoiled by my 6600 that I didn't think I could do without that button!
I should be able to pick it up in a week.
