OMG!! You will love that machine. I have had one since last Christmas and each time I use it I find something more to love. Happy Quilting!!!!!
PS - I found that you can use any thread on the top as long as you use the Superior Bottom bobbin thread in the bobbin. I had a 6500 before this one and know a lot about the machines so can help with questions if you have them in the future. Just ask!! :lol: :lol: :thumbup:
