I finally had the first zoom class for my 590. The shop was moving locations and had some problems with the internet. I found this first class helpful although it was just the first one. I think the 590 is going to be a wonderful machine, but it is not a machine that one can just sit down and start stitching. It depends care and learning her ways. The machine can be customized for your liking but will also let you know when you have not done something proper. Tee Hee.
