I have a Babylock Elegante that I got 2 years ago when I retired, my retirement present to myself. I love it and it does all my quilting, costumes and other misc. sewing. Probably overkill, but it sure is nice!!

Okay, piecing is my Riccar, a "class 15 clone" from the 60s, a treadle. My FM quilting machine is a Davis VF treadle. Oh, do I love that machine or what! I love it so much that I have three of them...

Juki domestic sewing machines only came on the market in Australia about 1 year ago, I have the Exceed F600 model, my local sewing machine and repair shop recommended it to me as he says he knows what is inside sewing machines and that they are very well made,m I am very happy with it.
All the commercial machines in Australia are Juki, until I saw them on a few tutorials made in the US I had never heard of them, does anyone else have a Juki?

How do you like the 730 for piecing? My other post was related to asking how ladies like the 9mm feed dogs when piecing...does it create a problem for you or do you get very accurate 1/4 inch seams easily? Thanks and love all the replies!!!
