Good choice and congratulations with your new "Baby"! I have had mine for only about a couple of months and I just love it! I also have a Pfaff 2140 upgraded to a 2170 Embroidery machine, and the Ellisimo is so much easier to use! Wouldn't trade it for anything! I have the circular attachment, but haven't tried it out yet! I've been working on 2 quilts for my grandsons. Need to put them aside and play with the embroidery machine! Guess there will be lots of time for that, I hope anyway!

I AM SO JEALOUS! Been going back and forth in my mind about upgrading from my Ellegante to the Ellisimo. I just need a very good price for my Ellegante, and to get the Ellisimo. Haven't found one yet. My machine has only 87000 stitches so I am thinking it is still too new for me to trade up. But I sure am jealous!

This event was so much fun so I am hoping they repeat it again in 2012, but when I saw Eleanor at the quilt show she told me she doesn't think they will. Dealerships sponsor these events to sell their machines, so the sales have to be high enough to cover the cost of hosting these events.
If ever you have a chance to meet her, or take one of her classes, please do. She is a wonderful sweet woman.
edit: She also has a store in Paducah Kentucky, and spends her time there as well.

i have to admit this is a new one for me. Who makes this elisimo??? I have a janome 6600 and love it. Wasn't impressed with the Janome 7000 last year so i doubt i will like the newest one. Probably just bigger and more expensive.
