I love my SQ-9000, but my single gripe was that I had to remember to change the needle position every time I turned on my machine when I was using the 1/4" foot, (which is most of the time). I can't tell you how many needles I broke, because I forgot.

Thanks to dianelmann, I no longer have to change the needle position. A HUGE thank you to diane!

I have a question on the SQ-9000. I never change the tension, stitch length or stitch width. Are there times I should be adjusting these?

I do all my piecing, quilting and FMQ on this machine using the straight stitch.

Someone asked if there is a button hole stitch on this machine for applique. This is one, although I haven't used it.

IMO, the stippling stitch set at it's largest size, is still too small to be of any use.
