Tellabella, I hear what you are saying. 1500 is a lot. I actually like the idea of personalized weekly classes. It will keep any concerns/issues freshly in my mind, and I can devote plenty of time to mastering new skills, but yes, it's a lot of money. For now I've decided to try to put it out of my mind. The Juki Virtuoso release is postponed until Feb. now and I'm intrigued by what I've heard about that machine, plus it's even less expensive. I'm taking that as my sign that I need to be patient. I don't like feeling stressed and uncertain about something that's supposed to be for fun!
Nellie, what a horrible story. I feel awful for you.
