So glad for you! I'm learning my Unity-feel like I have SO much to still figure out and get proficient to justify the purchase :-) It's great you are happy with your dealer, I wish now I had traveled to the dealer just a little farther away- they have a whole set of classes you take in the beginning, then they offer more in an ongoing cycle plus individual time. My dealer is very nice and I got a great deal- maintenance is good-but the lady who is the "teacher" isn't a teacher. She's great at answering specific questions-but I don't know everything to ask and she doesnt teach you, just wants to know what questions you have, so I'm trying to teach myself. Another dealer at a quilt show said I should call BL- but I have to take my machine to them for maintenance and dont want to jeopordise that relationship-so really take advantage of those classes! Sometimes I feel like I'm trying to learn to fly a jet or something!

It came, out of the box, set up with the embroidery console on it? That's really strange. My embroidery unit came in a separate hard case of it's own. I bet you had a hard time getting the boxes in your car! I did, however, I have the Brother Quattro II. Yours is an upgrade, and a big one, I hear.
When I bought my machine, I was able to get several sets of Isacord embroidery thread sets. I have every color in multiple shades, which is great. I am not frustrated when I go to embroider things. Also look at the many online embroidery sites, you can get some really great things to embroider for reasonable prices.
Enjoy your new machine. Hope you have many fantastic years with her. She's a beauty.
