Thanks Miriam, I agree. Although I do have to admit to having a few plastic wonders. I've purchased two embroidery machines in the last year, both Janome and I love them. The grandkidlets call them Grammas magic machines.
Also have a cute little Juki HZL27Z a friend sent me last year trying to convert me over to new machines and a 10yr old Euro Pro 7133 quilters machine...........okay, stop laughing, it actually sews well.
