You're welcome anytime!

I will say the same when my daughter and grandkids move out! My house is a disaster, and I mean that literally.

It's "used" but comes with the store warranty, and I believe it only has about 40 hours on it.
I have no idea how to embroider...I'm sure I'll get a tip here or there, right?? :lol: I'm so excited...now, any ideas how to tell hubby what I did?? |
We sell ourselves short sometimes. I rarely buy clothes & I'm not really in to jewelry so we dh bought me the quilting machine I nearly passed out. It was $999.00 on sale. He said I deserved it. My embroidery machine I bought myself. It was even more money but I saved & saved. Just remind him what a fishing trip cost or how much it cost to go deer hunting. During hunting season these guys flock Walmart & buy all those camo clothes, deer corn & feeders, beer & anything else they can find. Spend a fortune on junk & expect us to deal with it. We are worth it, just remind him also what a live in cook, housekeeper, chauffeur & gardener cost.

Woohoo! Christmas in July? I bet that will be tons of fun.

Congratulations Esqmommy, I am so pleased for you. Will you get a free lesson with your new Bernina baby? Just take it gently, and you will soon get the hang of it, they are great machines.

Yes, I get lessons. I've also signed up for a Bernina embroidery class at my LQS. They sell Berninas, but I actually purchased this from a local sewing machine dealer.
