Good day all
 
Well hello my name is Ben and here to try and get a few suggestion of what would be helpful for my wife and the new machine I got her for Christmas. It's a Jonome mc6600p. She does a lot of quilting and applicate. And this machine is for sewing only as she has a quilting machine already. What I would like to know is about presser feet, or any thing else that she might need to have to do what she does with out having to make 2 or 3 trips to the store to get this or that. I'm also looking at tables also and like the sew perfect table but have heard mixed reviews about them. Any help or insight would be great for me and I think she would be greatly happy too.

Welcome fom Ontario, Canada. I am a Bernina owner so I can't give you specific help for a Janome. How about a gift card/certificate from the Janome dealer for Christmas so she can choose some accessories herself?

Hello from Michigan. I have that machine, I bought the cording foot, I like to put piping on quilts also. Plus I found I needed extra bobbins!

Well I called the shop where I'm getting the machine from and ordered the janome table to go with it. A gift card sounds like a good idea how bout amount. How expensive are the accessory for this thing?

Oh, Ben, you sound very generous! She will be surprised at any amount on a gift card!
You deserve a great big hug!!! :)

Oh I agree with the extra bobbins! and maybe even a seperate bobbin winder( if she doesn't have one already)... I always wanted one of those.
Rotary cutter blades are always a great gift( check the size first) . We wait too long to change them.
A nice assortment of varigated threads to play with are nice too.

Thanks all for the help. I'm sure ill at the least get a hug from her.

congrats on buying your wife the new machine. I'm from ND and just about any amt on a card is nice. those feet cost more than a person thinks. Check to see what kind of feet are available. might have to only buy one or two at a time.
