I bought an old Singer 15-91 last summer and love it. The tension is forgiving, the stitches are beautiful and it is working really well for my FMQ. I'm new to sewing and bought the Singer for quilting because we were making the move to Ecuador and I wanted a machine that my husband could take care of for me. It is simple to use, runs like a champ and doesn't look like it will ever need a sewing machine repair person.
