He says it's a back up for when my antique 50's reproduction of an 1850's Singer decides to call it a day!! LOL My Singer is just a sewing machine no frills no extras. However I love my Singer and won't give it up til it gives up the ghost and then I will probably try to revive her!! But in the meantime when I get past some deadlines I look forward to trying out the new Brother!!
This one (I picked it out with him) the feeddogs will go down for free motion quilting! I have never really tried it before. It has alot of embroidery stitchs on it. It is a Brother 5000. It says it is a Project Runway edition. Don't know how good it is but we shall see!
