Yes, Buy the new machine but please, keep your old. You will wonder how you ever got along with just one machine, once you have two to work with. My machines work best for different things--I quilt a lot on one and do most of my piecing and machine applique on the other. It is so handy. Enjoy your blessing and don't let it get lost in the family budget. I know how easy it is for that to happen. Merry Christmas
