New Sewing machine; Wow!
If you are in the market for a new machine, I sure do have a recommendation. First I am in no way connected to the Brother company either in marketing or manufacturing. I have sewn on a lower end Janome for years. That includes piecing and quilting. It has been a good machine and I have no complaints. I decided to buy a Brother PQ1500S (quilters machine) off of EBay for just under $600 because it had a larger harp, not because I felt I needed a new machine. The PQ1500 does not have any fancy stitches but wow does it sew like a dream. It weighs more than my old machine and sews over seams and intersections without any pause. I never realized I was fighting my old machine but this machine is a dream. I hope this doesn't sound like an advertisement but I am so excited I had to share.

So glad you shared! I have been researching sewing machines myself - and want another one for the bigger harp space. I had just come to the conclusion earlier this week that I wanted to go with a straight stitch machine - and my choice was going to be the Brother PQ1500s. Your post helps confirm my decision. I am excitedly looking forward to getting mine (hoping to order next month). Happy sewing to you!

I LOVE my Brother machines. Had one for about 25 years and it has never giving me a bit of problems. Last year bought a Brother Duetta 4500D and absolutely love it too. Sews beautiful and embroidery is great!!! They are both real work horses...no matter what I feed them, they work great! I love my Brothers!
So glad to hear you are happy with your new machine. You WILL get many happy years of sewing on it!!! ENJOY!!!!

I love my Brother 1500, I had have it for about 10 years and it is still going strong. Before purchaseing my HQ16 I used it for all my FMQ, now it is used mostly for attaching bindings. It does it the best out of 3 I have used for binding.
