We won't even talk about the cigarette lighter, trinket boxes, music boxes, S&P shakers, pencil sharpeners, bird houses, clocks, soap (!), quilt hangers, puzzles, appliqued totes and tees or jewelry! Help! I've sewn and I can't get up!!

I must be a collector of sewing machines: I have a Bernina 153 QE, Janome 760 Jem Platnum, two Singer Featherweights, my old Singer Touchtronic from 1981, and a 1907 Singer Treadle! I also have an A1 Elite Longarm with Intelliquilter Robotic System on it. I love ALL my machines!!

I agree with Marilyn. That was my first toy for machine frame quilting and it was very cumbersome and awkward and didn't give good results at all. It went into the closet after the first use, and I finally tossed it. I eventually bought an original Handiquilter frame and put my old Singer on it and quilted with that for a year, before I sold it and bought a longarm. Perhaps you can find a used Handiquilter frame on Ebay... Wonderful machine quilting can also be acheived on your regular DSM, with practice.

I found it clumsy even when small and the rest of the time ate up too much table space..not a big enough room ! Also so small a quilting space...unless you have big harp on machine ! At that point it was too much trouble !! Might as well do regular FMQ. Save your $$
