So glad you were able to get new machine with large, deep throat. You will have fun quilting on it.

I believe your quilting life has just changed immensely.

That's what happened to me in 2010 when I went from a Pfaff Hobby machine with about a 6" throat to a Janome 7700 with that same size throat. It's never been the same since. You will love it. It is soo much easier to quilt when you have space!

I love learning to use a new machine. I have two 9" throat machines I use all the time.

Oh you lucky girl!

I went to that seminar when it was in Modesto, California and really enjoyed it. My splurge was a bunch of his dyed fabric. It is so luscious.

I'm sure you will enjoy the extra throat space on your new machine... it makes a world of difference. Congrats and have fun learning all the components of your new toy.
