That is so awesome. You picked a great machine. Babylocks are so user friendly. I love mine.

Enjoy it! I bought a new machine at a show in Sept. I bought a new 440 Bernina and love it

The brochure calls the BL an advance sewing and quilting machine. It doesn't do embroidery. I'm guessing it is on the higher end side of sewing machines that don't do embroidery.

you are correct. It is considered the high end "sewing only" machine for B/L. I love B/L machines and would never buy anything else but. They are so easy to use - the manuals are easy to understand - and it's good that you'll have a local shop for assistance.

As for the bouncing, other than the improper table, the higher end machines have a bigger motor which means more power.

Enjoy your new baby!!

I had the Quilter's Choice for almost 2 years and was perfectly happy with that one. Then while sewing for Project Linus at our local shop, I used the Esante and fell in love so I upgraded. In hind sight, I wish I would have kept the Quilter's Choice as my backup machine. Then I would have 2 good machines and the feet are interchangable. I have a simple Janome as my backup / class machine but then dealing with different feet, bobbins, etc.
