I went to pick up my FW which had been in for a tune-up.

DH was looking at a Mega Quilter set up with stand and was asking about functions. The dealer said he had a used set up which had been traded in on an embroidery machine. The price was "reasonable" and DH turned to me and said if I wanted a quilting set up, we should buy this today. The operative word was WE!! I said YES :)

The machine is in the house, but the stand and other components are in the back of the car. They will be unloaded tomorrow.

I have never purchased something without doing exhaustive research. I am still in the state of shock.... So I have read the instruction book (once) and have come to the board.

My plan is to get to know how the machine works while setting upon a regular table. Threading, bobbins, etc. I think this machine has a 9-inch throat plate opening.

Do you have any suggestions? This is a new learning curve, but I am so blessed to have my DH and this new equipment. Thanks :)
