I got it set up and did a bit of sewing to check it was OK, and it ran so beautifully and produced such perfect stitches that I wondered why I’ve ignored it - am going to give it a bit more time and see if I start to use it. The only problem is its weight - the day will come when I can no longer lift it. I can just about manage it at the moment. I dnot have the space to leave it out on a table.
I bought it when I was trying to find a machine to quilt with, having had a bad experience with a modern machine. I didn’t succeeded with the 201 either (I eventually found a new machine that quilts well), which is why I haven’t been using it. But now I’m thinking that it would be useful for bigger projects or thicker fabrics. Very relieved not to have to grapple with an eBay listing!
