CS6000i Brother Sewing Machine
#1
I need your help in deciding whether to get this machine. Is it a good one and will it help me in quilting? I have a Brother XL3500 right now and I was looking for another machine to help me in quilting. Thanks for your help in advance.

I gave my sister the XL3500 in May-it was a good little machine, just didn't do what all I needed. I just bought my mom the 6000 for Christmas and she loves it! She has sewn on both and says the 6000 is great!

I was talking to a gentleman who quilts at a garage sale last September, he had this machine and absolutely loved it. After he'd had it for a year, he bought one for his daughter for Christmas. I recommended it to the mother of one of my student's who wanted to get her daughter a machine for Christmas and so far no complaints! So I think it's a good deal.
There is also an upgrade to this machine. It has a few more stitches but other than that, the only difference I could see between it and the 6000 was the warranty and the price. It's the XR9000. I think Amazon has the best prices on these machines.

I have one and I love it for piecing! But the throat space really isn't big enough for doing the quilting. Since I don't like doing that part anyway, it's not a problem for me.
Got it from Walmart.com.... free shipping!
