That machine also has a built in stipple stitch, and I would love to have that!
Congrats on your machine...Donna

The Stipple stich you are talking about on this machine is very small. I think you would use it more for decoration and not quilting. What do the others think who have this machine?

I also have this machine for my primary sewing and quilting. Love all the features and all of the included different feet. I don't think that I could of bought a better machine for the money. I plan on getting a Bernina 440 QEE as soon as I can come up with the cash. I still plan on using the Brother for certain things so that I don't have to keep switching one machine over to change uses.

I got that same machine in June, and I just love it!! It's a little workhorse!! And lightweight enough to carry to other sewing gigs. It's really great, and under $200!!

I looked at this machine today at Walmart. I don't need another machine but I was thinking it looked pretty good.

I also have this machine. I treat it with respect and care and it rewards me with some happy quilting. It is plastic, I am gentle with it. I have many hours on it and have no complaints.
Should you have any questions on yours please feel free to send me a pm.
