    Watched a Kay Wood video on computer making star pattern and when she would be piecing, she would push a button and it would cut her thread at the end. What kind of machine has that feature, had not heard of that one. Anyone have this??

    I think any number of high end machines have an auto thread cutter. Actually my 1500 brother has it and my 400D had it (sold it). sort of miss it on my new machine.

    On my Designer 1 I have a button to push that will cut the thread, I don't use it because it cuts the bobbin thread so short that I have to open the bobbin plate to find the thread.

    Many machines have this feature...Bernina, Husqvarna, Babylock, Janome, Pfaff. I'm not sure what at what price point you will find this feature. All of the upper end machines have this feature.
