Last chance before the check is written....
Tomorrow DH and are heading to a machine shop recommended by a fellow QB member near me. My christmas gift was any machine I wanted to add to the collection. We looked as everything between portable class machines to long arms. And decided on a solid secondary machine with big harp, capable of putting on a frame, and able to do everything but embroidery when the viking is in for its regular service. Dependable, solid, and easy to deal with were also factors.
and the winner is.......Janome 8900QCP
if anyone has anything negative to say about this machine i sure would like to hear it. So far all I have seen have been glowing reviews.
