Last spring i bought my Futura on HSN ...had been looking at it for at least a year drooling... before i finished all my flex pays they had the new model ... now i want it. if i had 2 i could keep one set up as embroidery all the time.. i do have an older brother embroidery but it just can't even be compared to the futura and i have a cheap Singer and brother to use for regular sewing while my futura is in embroidery mode BUT 2 futura's...... ahhhhhhh what a dream
