I piece with my babylock quilters choice and just got the new babylock symphony and love it, also have babylock evolution serger I go straight piecing on. I have the babylock jewel to do the quilting.
The others I use now and again are the Babylock elegante, 2 old singers for heavy piecing.
Love all my machines just need more hands to use them...lol

Bernina 150 and a Featherweight. Take the featherweight to classes where there is piecing involved. Bernina when there is anything zig zag. Love both machines.

Brother CS600i

I also have a singer 401a and an older Sears Kenmore I need to do more with :oops: LOL

The machine I use is my own 2 hands. I am the machine. I am old fashioned I guess and I love the therapy of doing hand work, and the satisfaction when its finished.

When I do a quicky for kids or something like that, I use my Memory Craft 4000. Its all I need and more. Hand quilting rules at my house. Sure is hard to find anymore. :( Its sad but I understand how progress changes our lives. Not mine. Here is a bit of work.

A Janome 6500P for piecing (until next week - trading it in on the Horizon 7700 by Janome). I also use my Viking Designer SE for some piecing, but mostly for FMQ and embroidery. I plan to use the 7700 for more FMQ; can hardly wait to bring her home! I have a Viking Rose for classes.
