when I bought my first embroidery machine I commented that I wasn't sure I could justify the cost, the sales
lady asked if my husband always consulted and justified the cost of tools and fishing gear that he wanted...That
being said I spent the $1500 (my own money) and six months later spent upgraded to one that was over $10,000.
I don't spend foolishly but only use my own money and buy the tools I want for my sewing room
