Default New addition to sewing "family"

On Friday I got a NEW Brother Innov-is 1500D
combo sewing/embroidery machine. I already
have the NV1000 machine, but I wanted one
that had a larger embroidery area.

Here it is Sunday and I have YET to even plug the
new machine in, much less play with it.

The reason I have been TRYING to clean and organize
my sewing room as this machine is going to take up
more room than the other machine because of the size.

So when I take small breaks from cleaning to "regroup"
my brain; I have been reading the owners manual and I
made some fun and interesting discoveries about my new
baby.

1) I can now wind bobbins at the same time I am sewing.

2) It has a bobbin storage pegged tray on the back side of
where the free arm is.

3) It has a presser foot knee lifter bar (yippee!!!)

4) It came WITH the FMQ foot, walking foot, side cutter foot
and an extra bobbin case. (I had to buy the FMQ &walking feet
for my old machine).

Now I just need to get my sewing room CLEAN so that I can
play with the new sewing "family" member.
