pfaff has a seond long arm and I am head over heels in love with it. Top of my wish list. Instead of the grand quilter, it has the pfaff hobby craft or something close to that as the machine. The foot print that is set up at the store where I found my new Pfaff, has a very small foot print and would work beautiful in a smaller home just has mine. Plus it does the pantagrams I believe is the spelling. And we are talking $4,000 vs $10,000 for the grand quilter. I'm probably way off base as usual, but for the money and what's on the equpment, it sounds waonderful and I did get to play on it for a bit. Can be operated from the front or the rear and it was a dream. A thought..
