I have a new home/janome, not as fancy as yours. My mom and i both bought them (yes, 2 of them) from a local quilt shop in the early 90's. I now have both of them, both purr like a kitten. I have loaned one to my DDIL as she had an elcheapo that did not sew right, she could not believe the difference it made sewing on a good machine. My local AJanome dealer has helped me out with different parts and pieces over the years. They do not make them like that any more.

That pink bobbin is a new item from Janome, so the machine was used recently and if so it must be in pretty good shape. Looks like new to me.

Default thrift store find

the name was changed to ms 3015. i do remember reading somewhere that it was a limited edition. so that would tie in with what jacquie said. all the memory craft and janome feet will fit and the manuals are available online.

Don't bother looking at Sears. Find a Janome dealer they should beable to help. It will use Janome feet. Go to Janome.com and dealer locator, put in your zip code and they will give you names near you. Good luck, very nice machine!!

I'm sorry, I should have been clearer. It was a plain clear plastic bobbin with pink thread in it. But I can totally see a limited-run pink bobbin come out some October! That would be kinda cool!

Good thought-turns out the LQS I drive past once a week is a Janome dealer. I'll drop in when I go past them tomorrow.

That is so pretty, it also is a good machine. Call a Janome Dealer, they will be able to help you. New Home is a good machine, Joy

Wow, it looks really good. I have a 20+ Janome (it doesn't say New Home on it), and it is still going strong. It is the only machine I have, so I do a lot of sewing on it. I would say if you can get to a Janome dealer you could find instructions, attachments, and maybe some lessons on how to thread it etc. Good luck with it!
