Congratulations on your new baby. Enjoy the thrills of getting to know her. I stepped out of my long-standing Viking comfort zone (love affair) 2 years ago and bought a Pfaff Quilt Expression 3 and I LOVE her. She gives me pleasure every time I sit in front of her. Then this year I got a Janome Gem to take to classes because my aging body protested at the weight of the other machines. What a surprise to find out that I actually enjoy the little darling! Who knew?
