I don't do fancy machine quilting but maybe one quilt a year if that. I can see where I would have my Featherweight out doing most of my piecing and the expensive Bernina sitting there saying look you could have had the Accucut with every die made instead of me, heck you could have had lipo instead, you could have your whole lawn professionally landscaped instead, you could have bought ever fabric line there is instead of me. Having a machine sitting mocking me while I pieced on my Featerweight didn't seem like such a good buy afterall. :wink: :wink:
I love your attitude!!! :thumbup:
