I could kick myself all around the room for buying my Janome 8900. I'd spent 3 years away from home caring for my father in law through dementia. I wanted to do something good for myself. And I'd loved my previous high end Janome.
Not taking into account I was no longer the girl of the 90s doing art quilts and using all the features. I use my machine for patchwork. I could have just pulled out my featherweight. So a mental downgrade
I do love the lights and the thread cutter and the smooth running. But I certainly didn't need it.
