Good for you,glad to here you got a new onew.
My frind and I were down to visit her Mother at Camdan Mo. So while we were there we stopped off at a quilt shop in Versals mo. and they had the viking machines too. So we looked at them They didn't have one like you got,but I wanted the sew and embroardrey mach. She showed us a little about them but she couldn't run it didn't have the hoop or anything,the one that I would want was 6500,so guess that will just be a dream.Ha. but she had some more there that were on sale for 1900 mcan't remeber the excat amount was closer to 2000 I think. Sounded a little better,but still high.Next I will go back and price the Janome the next one up from mine see which is cheaper. The viking ones were called diesgne 1 then the next up was designe 2,then on up to 3.
