Happy birthday, and congrats on the new machine!!

a couple months ago, my hubs nearly bought me a new Brother Dream Machine. It has some real wowza features, including the ability to scan an image right there on the machine, then stitch it out!! 😲

However... I didn't let him buy it. (I can hear you gasping, you know!)

Why? Because, if I'm going to spend thousands of $$ for an embroidery machine, I want it to be a multi-needle machine so I don't have to be constantly changing the threads.

Plus, really, I don't want to go in debt to buy it, especially since he's supposed to be retiring this month... which means that I would be the one paying for it.

My dear hubby, is letting me go the American Quilt Show in Des Moines for an anniversary present

My DH has never let me do anything. I never ask first. LOL

Congratulations on your new machine! It is a great birthday present.

If he is that much of a tightwad to spend that much money he must really love you tons. You will love the machine. The v-series machines are awesome

Congratulations and happy birthday! My husband is also super supportive of my hobbies and just this week encouraged me to buy the new machine I've been wanting as a retirement gift to myself. I chose the Brother VQ3000 Dreamweaver and couldn't be happier! Enjoy your new machine!
