No. One machine won't do it all. I got a PFAFF embroidery machine that has a harp almost as large as my 1973 Singer which does all basic sewing and has some decorative stitchers, but is heavy. It also has a large harp so I've quilted king size quilts on it. The PFAFF is also heavy. I recently got a smaller, lighter Janome to take to classes and stuff. I was debating getting a Singer featherweight instead.

Thank you so much, Ya I have already decided I think I will get the Juki because I have heard so many great things about the machine. But I do a few questions about it so I will be PM about them when I get ready to buy it.

I'm really glad I shelled out the extra money for the Juki though. If you're going to go with two machines and if one them can be a straight-stitch only machine, then the Juki is a really good investment. There are a lot of threads on here about the 2010, so I won't go into the details of what I like about the machine, but feel free to PM me if you have any questions.

I am looking at a Bernina #153 quilting machine for a second machine. I am told it is about 10 years old. Do any of you have any knowledge/references about this model? It is a white machine with red.
