    I use a Janome 11000 for piecing; I use a Janome 1600P and a New Home (also Janome) MC6000 for quilting.

    Babylock Espire for almost everything; although, I have not yet tried FMQ, mostly SID and hand quilting.

    I use a Bernina 440QE for piecing and general sewing. I LOVE this machine. I also use this machine for quilting small wall hangings. I use a Viking Mega Quilter and frame for quilting larger items. When I have a class or project I take my 15-year old Pfaff 7550 which works beautifully.

    I quilt with a Pfaff Grand Quilter. It only has a straight stitch and a 9" throat which is nice for quilting. I've had it a few years. Dani
    There is nothing better than that Pfaff built-in walking foot! The Olympic Pen. is such a pretty place. I am a Seattle girl transplanted to Pensacola.

    I use a Pfaff and love it ... didn't know folks had and used more than one machine at a time until I joined the Board ... when I bought my Pfaff, I gave a new Singer to a newly wed who wanted to learn to sew ... she has since made curtains for her new home and taught her sister to sew ... it is like "pay it forward."

    That was so sweet of you. And you are right about paying it forward. It does wonders for others and wonders for the soul.
