How exciting for you!!
I was just looking at the Sweet 16 online yesterday and see this is very similar.
DogHouseMom referred to them as being cousins, yet, I can't find it on the Sweet16 site.
So is it a HQ? or something else?
Suggestions? I really don't have much for you, other than .... practice, practice, practice.
Since I got my Janome 6600 I have come to enjoy FMQ, and am seeing my progress with that praftice!!! Something I never thought I would want to do, and now I want more throat space to make it enjoyable and not feel like I am fighting to shove the fabric thru.
I wish you well for taking the step that I would hope to do, sometime!
