    Hi everyone! Well I upgraded my sewing machine to a Sapphire 835. Was using a Husqvarna Emerald 203. Was offered to upgrade before my year was up and received the full price of my Emerald to be discounted on the new one. Cant wait to get started. Worked all weekend and will be working Mon and Tuesday but wait until Wednesday, lookout Sapphire, I'm coming after you!

    Congrats! Enjoy! One thing I do on any new or new to me machine is stitch out all the deco stitches and buttonholes. Reveals any problems (some machines won't make consistent buttonholes for example) and gives me a stitched sample of the stitches. Usually it's the last time I ever use the buttonholes...hehe.
