Have you found your "perfect" machine?

Have you found your "perfect" machine?
Mine WAS my beloved Pfaff 7550 ( the real Ms Grace).
She went to the big fabric store in the sky almost a year ago.
Since then I have tried several other machines, but I just can't seem to "bond" with another machine.
What is your favorite machine for piecing?
*I have tried Singer Featherweight, Babylock, Singer 301.
Right now I'm using my Juki Tl-98q. It's good, but just "not it"

I love my avatar, my Mom's Kenmore from 1958. I don't have much to compare it to though. Before that I had a portable Kenmore from the 80's. I've since bought a cousin machine to my Mom's and use it exclusively for FMQ. Even though I have not auditioned a ton of machines for piecing, I do love to use Mom's.

I don't know if there is such a thing as a "perfect machine". I have several machines and they all have their good and bad points. Some do FMQ better than another, some piece than others, etc. I guess that's just the way it goes. But if you want your Pfaff back, try eBay,ShopGoodwill. In the area where I live, one of the grocery stores has a in-store trader.You might be amazed at what you may find. Good Luck!
