Babylock Jane works on a frame. 9" throat, 1500 spm, and straight stitch. @ 1300, but you may find a classroom model at a dealer. And, it sews jeans like gliding over butter!

The shop where I bought my Jane told me that Baby Lock dosnt make machines. They put their name on other company machines.
Jane is a Brother 1500.

it is to heavy for lifting on and off a frame. and has to many bells and whistles to waste on a frame.

i would get a Juki..nothing fancy,and great on a frame! ( i had one on a gracie pro frame.)

The Janome 1600 is also a good machine for quilting. i think they can be bought for around $800.00

Both have 9" throats.

Pattern Review website has reviews of sewing machines by users. pros/cons and prices they paid. worth checking out:

I got a Janome 1600 online (new) for $499 and free shipping. I thought it was a mistake in pricing but it was correct! I don't think the prices are that low now.

I am like you. I thought it was a mistake but it wasn't. It also is new not a used machine. I just guess GOD thought it was time I had a good machine. My past machines were only what I could afford at the time. Boy did have to replace them often. Happy now!!!!! :thumbup:
