    need to get some belts and get some cleaned up to use this winter!
    you have inspired me!
    These are only the ones that I use for piecing and quilting FMQ included. I have lots more that I do not use but are restored and can be used.

    And contrary to others beliefs (BKinCO) I do have a couple that use electricity but nothing newer than 1963.

    I have been piecing on my new featherweight (also have a Janome 4000 that I usually piece on) and quilt (or attempt to) on my Janome 6500.

    At my house in ON I have a Janome 4023, and for classes I have pink Kenmore which is a Janome Jem machine. I also have a Singer Genie for machine quilting cause it can handle the bulk of the quilt, the Kenmore can't.

    At my mom's in SK I just bought a Brother LS 2125 which sews good, and I will likely quilt on her Singer Stylist in a cabinet that she got when she moved to Canada in 1965.

    I love my 7 year old Juki TL98E for piecing and my Sapphire 850 for decorative stitches and free motion quilting. I use the Juki for FMQ, too.

    I use my Juki TL98E for both my piecing and my quilting - love it.

    Bernina 1030, non-computerized, about 20 years old
    Jem Gold
    Jem Platinum

    Bernina is the workhorse, but I use all of them for everything.

    I use both my Bernina 630 and my 830 for piecing, but mostly the 630. I quilt on an APQS Millennium.

    I use my Bernina 160 most, but also the Bernina 180 and Brother ex660, forerunner of the 6000i
