Sewing machines tryouts

I have been so busy I forgot to post about my trip to try out theBabylock Quest.It is a wonderful machine, free motion quilts beautifully and has somany decorative stitches I am not sure what I would do with all ofthem. The price is right (for my wallet) so I have one on order.The only thing I did not like about it......I thought the presser feetare kinda cheezy. Now I say this after being a "dyed in the wool"Bernina owner so take it for what it is worth.I am looking forward to getting my baby home and introducing to therest of the machines. I thought I had my Bernina 930 sold, a coupleof times, however I have run into what I think are a couple ofscammers. I had posted it on craigslist thinking I would be able tosell it fairly easily there but after many broken promises of moneysent and meetings to pick it up with money in hand I still have themachine. Why am I selling it??? I have two.Anyway, I did like the Babylock Quest.JMHO,Marsha in nw, Ohio

I called my dealer this morning to ask some more questions about this machine I was going to pick up and GUESS WHAT!!! The sewing machine was at the shop!!!! I could pick it up at 4pm!!! Boy was it a long day. The reason I couldn't pick it up until 4pm is because it was at his other shop and he couldn't bring it over until they closed. I bought a simple Babylock serger while I was there because I didn't have one right now and miss having one.

It has been a fun afternoon but now I am home and I need to go unpack boxes and get everyone comfortable in their new home.

Piece,

I paid $l,500 at a quilt show, and they "threw in" a Babylock Xscape because I had to wait for several months. It's a nice machine too....weighing in at

12.8 lbs. Great for taking on the road!! The Quest is now in ( a month early), and I hope to pick it up tomorrow.

Ok, I've been gone a few days and I'm lost in this conversation. Can someone give me the Cliff's Notes version? :-) What machines are we talking about? I always like to have this sort of information in case I need it!
