When I did give a few away that were quilted they are Wow did you do this - the design of the FMQ'ing...I felt odd that I did not...and then my hubby wanted one but wanted me to FMQ it. I said I could not in my sewing machine so he bought me a 7700 so I could...so since then I have done my own. It has paid for its self...
