Sorry Rodney, got side tracked working on the 185j - got it running pretty good :-) It had made only tiny stitches.
I guess I Could and Would overcome my caution regarding slant needles if a good-deal-machine simply followed me home but basically, I prefer to keep it simple and stick to mostly interchangeable feet and attachments. I'm not a collector, I want machines that are useful for me. You have to have plenty of room to keep things relatively neat and organized, and I'm trying to reduce clutter rather than add to it.... Not sure I'm having much success with that as it is :-)
