I have a couple backup machines. A Singer 221 Featherweight given to me a couple months ago so haven't really tried it as yet. Then I ordered a Brother CS7000X machine to put on my cutting table for sashings, borders and bindings as my regular machine is just too heavy to be moving around in my opinion. The Brother machine comes with a number of feet including a walking foot which I'll be using on the binding tomorrow for a quilt that's taken me almost 23 months to finish quilting due to lost mojo. Didn't cost much more than $240 thru Walmart or you might find it at Costco, both online.
