Light weight machine for classes.
I just bought a Brother XL2600 light weight machine for hauling around. It was the cheapest I could find, $80.
It is a great small machine. Bought thru Amazon and was delivered in a week. I only buy machines with drop in bobbins except for my Baby Lock Jane on my long arm table which I do not like at all. It is a pain to even thread let alone the bobbin case. I really regret that purchase. My only problem is I have a Viking computerized machine with auto foot and I keep forgetting to use the lever to lower the foot on the Brother. My other Brother is a cheap quilting machine that I got when I first started quilting and it is a workhorse. I do like Brother machines for price and quality. My Viking was expensive but I love it too and all the bells and whistles on it. |
I do the same thing...forget to use the lever to lower the foot on my Janome Gold when I use it. I also have a Viking Sapphire. I laugh all the time when I forget. It's amazing how fast you get hooked on the automatic foot drop.

Wow, so glad others forget after using a Viking with the auto foot. I take a FW to class and forget all the time. I also forget to hold the threads on the FW as I don't need to do that on my Viking D1 because it cuts the threads. We are creatures of habit.

Its interesting how fast you get used to having all the bells and whistles
