Well low and behold - I found a dealer closer to me. I had to go out to town today (I live in a very rural area) for an eye appt and I discovered a Janome dealer that I never knew about! I got the low tension bobbin! Yippee! I passed on the 3 piece adjustable FMQ foot set. It was $84 and I just couldn't afford it right now. And I first want to see what kind of difference the blue bobbin case makes.
Thanks everyone! I was happy to find a local shop - I like to to keep my money local whenever possible.
