I know what you mean . I showed up to class and everyone has anew one and here I walk in with my FW. I just laughed and said "well it's the only thing in my house older than I"am. I don't let things like that get to me cause I could have a new fancy machine but at my age the learning curve is more than I want to handle.I just want to make beautiful quilts. To me It's kinda like haveing a new house , sure I"d like one with a sewing room of my design . But I don't want to make house pmts so I'll stick with what I have. :D
