Congrats enjoy!!!!!!

Doing the happy dance for you! Happy, happy, joy, joy! My 6600 is now a week old so I'm not much farther down the road than you. Do join the yahoo group for 6500/6600/7700. Search "yahoo group janome 6600" and you'll find it.

Love that you got the bag, too. My old bag is too small for this machine so I'll be taking it to a class next weekend with a fork lift, I guess. :) It's my only machine right now so no choice. I always expected to upgrade and still hve my little Brother, but alas, it was not to be.

My machine's name is Sylvia. For the record, I think naming your machine is silly. Yes, I said, "silly", but ... when my husband and I were debating on whether this was my macine or not I woke up one morning with the thought, "Her name is Sylvia" so ... what is one to do????? Asked my husband to go get my machine and ... did not tell him she has a name. We have been married only 39 years. It's too early in the relationship for him to know this about me.

Have fun, fun, fun. Be patient, patient, patient.

Happy for you :) I am one of many on this board who love their 6600's. My dad had a habit of naming inanimate objects...every car he ever owned was "Betsy" ... and so I try to spend as much time as I can with my Betsy - my 6600!

I love my 6600 and use it almost every day. Wish I had bought it years ago.
