Yeah I need another machine like I need a hole in my head LOL... It really is a spiffy little machine..

I have this very machine & I love it!! :-D I have had it about 1 1/2 years & have no problems. It has a real nice stitch,makes a great buttonhole & very nice decorative stitches. I've really come to enjoy the START/STOP button. I have a muscle disease & this is very helpful to me. Sewing very long using the foot pedal really is painful. I have done free-motion quilting on baby quilts & lap quilts ( 45" x 54" ) & haven't had a problem moving the quilt through the harp area. I'm sure a full size or larger would be more difficult, but I imagine it would probably be difficult with other machines also. I would recommend this machine. It is my machine I use everyday for everything. I am very happy for you, & hope you enjoy your new machine!! :-P :-P G-ma Becky

I just took a look at it online. What a sweet machine. I am seriously thinking about ordering one.

I have this Featherweight and I really like it. Sure it isn't the like the OLD Featherweight, but I have made patches for a king side quilt on it for my first quilt. I had some trouble with getting a 1/4" seam, but I found out, that was my fault. I just finished a patch for a local library. Quilters were asked to use Civil War fabrics. I was pleased with the patch. There are alot of bells and whistles that I still have not used, but they send a tutorial dvd with it and that helped alot. I got mine from HSN also, but it wasn't $400, so I guess I got a buy. Happy quilting no matter what sewing machine you have.

My friend and I both bought this machine because we have quilting days at each others house and didn't want to lug our expensive Berninas around.

Sews great right out of the box AND the applique stitch is so nice! Rarely do you see this stitch offered on a machine of this price.

We haven't noticed a bouncing around problem.

Yes -- how does the no-foot-feed feature work??

I would love to see your first project on it. I am sure it won't be long before you have one ready to show us! ;)

Just have to comment on the baby on your avatar. I have a pic of my oldest like that, BUT he looks like he could have been a twin. Everytime I see it, it reminds me of my son when he was a baby. He's almost 30 now.
