I bought one too, but I'm am not loving it as much as you do. What do you think I am doing wrong? I have only quilted two quilts with it and both times, my thread breaks about every two feet or my needle breaks. And the needle is so hard to tell which way it goes in because the directions are not very clear in the manual and the needle does not have a flat side like needles for other brands of sewing machine. I want to 'love' my machine too, but so far it has given me nothing but misery. I have done everything the book told me for troubleshooting and it doesn't work.

These green bags can be fold into a very cute strawberry or even an animal. Our kids love the strawberry bags a lot since we put some candies on the eco bags and fold them. At the same time, we are teaching our kids on how to avoid using any plastic bags at all time when we have these little cute green supply strawberry bags.

I'm looking for one and i'm unable to locate the one that you have displayed. How much does it cost? Thanks Pam Hi

I'm not a quilter and don't know a thing about Grace frames so unfortunately can't give you much insight there, but I sew everything you see in my Etsy shop on my Janome 1600P-DBX, and the machine has been a dream of a workhorse. I would definitely recommend the small investment of purchasing an extension table for working on larger-sized projects, as well as some specialized presser feet (I get mine on eBay) so you can get the job done more efficiently. For quilting-related (or general) questions about this machine, I'd definitely also recommend talking to the staff at The Sewing Machine Shop. I've had the best luck with reaching them by phone during business hours. Getting a response via email and/or their online form can be hit or miss. Here's their URL: http://www.sewingmachineshop.com/index.html Otherwise I'm happy to try to answer any other questions. Good luck finding your perfect machine!

I was thinking of buying a Jonome 1600p-DBX, so would you still recommend it? I have never quilted a top before and want to learn. I thought this machine and maybe a Grace frame of some type. Any pointers would be great! Debbie Hi, this was very informative for me. I was thinking of buying a Jonome 1600p-DBX, so would you still recommend it?
