Don't you wish you could order a machine just the way you want it. Deep throat, 20 stitches, heavy motor, etc.... The Horizon is nice but PRICEY, so a reasonable price would be nice too.

I really haven't done much but play around with it...now that the holidays are over I'll start playing more with it.

My Singers 301a measures 7.25 inches... Not much bigger than what she has. I'd check on the Juki TL98Q - strickly a straight stitch machine with a reverse and cutting thread option for quilters. Maybe $600-700 price range now or even less if yo'd look for a trade-in model.

Are those inches Actual? Or is like a "19 inch" TV (which never really is 19 inches.

I got my ruler out and measured - from needle across to closest edge of harp.

The Juki I got has a 9'' throat area, It works well for me.
