I have an HQ16 I bought in '08. I have a Brother machine, a Juki, a Janome, the Elna and 2 treadles. I use the Brother and Juki the most and I take the Janome travelling.LOL What longarm do you have? I have no DH to notice so I have machines everywhere. I have one in my living room pretty 1948 Singer, one in my dining room a 1934 Montgomery Wards made by JUKI, a 1930's Anker (German made and a dream ) and a 1960's New Home in the studio. My youngest kid has my Janome at the moment, the only one that isn't strictly straight stitch. I have a Singer treadle in the spare bedroom and 4 more old singers that each need a part stashed away in various locations.
