Favorite sewing machine for quilters
#141
I have all Viking and i love all of them, especially my Sapphire 875 it sews like a fairy to me and it has many many (enough for me) stitches that i would probably never use all. It is also great for free motion which i haven't used because i bought the viking long arm, which i am starting to get familiar with and loving it.
I know for people who wants to have a long arm for business look for certain brands, which are considered commercial i guess, but for me my viking long arm does the job very very well and the robot (quiltsewclever) just adds to the sweetness. IMHO

Viking and fell in love with the 870, then traded up for the 875.
It's taken me a while to get used to doing FMquilting with it, there seems to be a learning curve. I've used my old Berninas
for many years to do all my quilting, seemed it was so much easier.

I just bought a topaz 30 and I am learning how it works. I still need lots of practice on it too. I do like the way it fmg of course I have not done a large quilt yet. But really looking forward to doing one. Have fun
