Hi all, well my 11,000 is a year old now and I love it. I use it a lot, love doing embroidery and am always looking for "plain clothes" that I can put some design on. And yes, I do download free designs, but find that I am always running up a bill on my credit card with Embroidery Library. Their designs sew out so well. I too have tons of designs, need more time on this earth to use them at least once! I think Janome is the best of the best. No regrets ever on changing from Singer to Janome. Thanks everyone!
