    I have a new (June 2011) Pfaff Quilt Expression 4.0, which has a nice wide throat area, 10 inches. I recently FMQ'd on it and it quilted my top beautifully---my stitches and tension were so nice, as close to "perfect" as any I've done in the past! I'm in love with this machine and so happy my hubby bought it for my birthday this year!!

    I use my Bernina 630. It's all I got. I do like to use the BSR foot!

    I love my Bernina 640. I have crammed a queen size into it and I am sure I could do a king, it would just take more control.

    My mom has one of those with a beautiful cabinet. I'll bet I could convince her to give it to me since she hasn't used it in years. (But where, oh where would I put it?)
