farmquilter- that's great!!
Now it makes sense to me that my Bernina dealer had Eversewn machines. I had a hunch they may have been made by Bernina. I bet you're going to love it!
Where did you order it from?

Eversewn is distributed by Brewster, made from Bernina specs. Any dealer can carry it and any quilt shop can sell it. I would buy from Amazon so there would be no hassle return if you don't bond with it.

Getting it from Amazon, from a dealer in TX. It pretty much has everything the Pfaff 7570 has except the on-board walking foot but it does have a thread cutter over the Pfaff. Can not wait until Monday.

Not that I “need” another maxhine but I have viewed the Eversewn machines at quilt shows and inline and they look great. Please come back and let us know your feeling about this machine. A mouse got into one of my Pfaff 1473 machines (I have twins) and made a nest in the harp. I was going to take it to get cleaned up and had hopes of using it’s twin as I love this model. Darn mouse chewed the plug end of the power cord so it won’t work. And no - I dint have a second power cord - or perhaps it’s misplaced. Anyway, I might look at them them I go up,t AQS Lancaster in March. Thanks to all.

Janomes are great machines too. I would get a machine that has the needle up/down and thread cutter. If you are FMQ, you need a wider throat space. If you can find a machine with the auto foot lift, this is great for piecing. Have fun trying them out. I would look at more than one brand.

Got my Sparrow 30 at 2:50 and have already sewn the layers together on 4 burp cloths. It has the exact same needle threader as the Pfaff 7570 and love the thread cutter. Need to wind bobbins, the machine is very quiet and sews great. Need to prepare 3 more burps to sew before finishing them all with the top stitching.
Thank you ladies for telling me about this machine. I do not have any stores close to even look for something, so glad Amazon carries them.
One happy sewer here.
