Congratulations!!

I am so happy for you! Please post pics of your new baby when you get her set up and ready for her debut!

Congratulations - you will love it. I've had an Ellisimo for a month now and it's pretty intuitive.
I looked at all the machines before making my choice. My top 3 were the BL E and Janome and Bernina 580. I'm glad I made the choice I did and I sure you will be just as happy.

You are right, it seems much easier than some of them.

Congratulations on your new purchase. You're gonna love your new machine. Have fun learning all the new features of it.

The thing I most enjoy with my machine (Pfaff 1471) is the needle down feature! Makes applique so much easier!

Congratulations! I'm still sewing on my old, mechanical Kenmore and just can't seem to give it up. I want a new machine really badly but can't make up my mind which to get, whether to spend all that money, etc., etc., etc. I hope you post more about how you like your new machine and what it takes to adjust to it & all.

I love my Babylock too--just a Quest--I can't imagine needing more. Congrats on your new baby!

So happy for you! Just googled it and it has so many great features. Wow, what a machine!

[I] just bought a baby lock Ellisimo. I love her. Mine had jusb pooped out/ I'm reallly excited for you. What a neat place to go and get to try all of them. I had to go to several different store dealers and try each one out.... what a great way to find the one just for you

I recently purchased a new machine and one of my favorite features is the needle down!:o. Enjoy your new machine!

I am excited for you. Congratulations. happy seams to you.

Lucky you, a new machine opens a world of possibilities. I bought a drafting chair. The people don't want to pack it up. I can go get it this afternoon. Living close to Houston has it's advantages.

Congrats on your new baby!! You're going to love this machine. I've used it working on Charity projects at our local sewing machine shop and my next door neighbor bought one a few months ago. It's a great machine with lots of features. I want to get one just to have the "auto-lift" feature on the foot LOL How crazy is that? I have the Esante (sewing and embroidery) and it's been a workhorse the past 3 years. Only serviced once when I cracked the bobbin case from multiple broken needles - my fault :(

Enjoy your new baby !!

I don't blame you -- we should be able to get insurance on these higher end machines too since some of the cost almost as much as a good used car LOL

I have a Baby Loc Symphony and absolutely love it. This machine has been working it's heart out for a year now and works great. You will love it.

Have fun with your new machine.

congratulations. enjoy and have lots of fun

Good for you. Enjoy your new machine.

What would one expect to pay for a Baby Lock Symphony? You are peaking my interest....:)

You'll enjoy your new machine. Do secure it well for travel back to your house.

Congratulations on your new machine and on your good deal I am sure you got on it since it had been gently used during the Festival. Enjoy your new baby!

I came home with my new Janome MC11000 Special Edtion. Going to take awhile to learn all the bells and whistles

congratulatios and enjoy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Better bring on the frozen dinners, you're going to be a little busy playing with your new machine! Have fun!!

Congratulations on your new machine! You'll have such fun learning to use all of its features. Be sure and post pictures!

Ms. Sewloved, Is it true you can get a much better price through a quilt show. Enjoy your new machine.

congratulations!

Congratulations...I have a Baby Lock Ellegant 2 and I love it. The thing I love about the BLs is you can trade UP and it doesn't cost an arm and a leg all at once - just an arm lol Wendy

How exciting to be getting a new machine. You will love the ease of sewing. I have the BL Quest Plus and love it.

Congrats on your new machine! It sounds like a great one from what I've read about it.

Congrats!! Have fun playing with your new baby.

One would expect to pay a lot. ;) LOL! I have no idea if the show deal is a better deal or not.

I paid $1800. The machine is gently used, as it was a show machine. So, used in classes during the quilt show. Comes with the 3 year full coverage warranty, extension table and more feet than I know what to do with.

The price for a new, unused machine was about $300 or $400 higher. I can't remember now.

I love Babylocks! Congratulations!!

'Sew' happy for you! Nothing puts a smile on a quilters face better than getting a new sewing machine! I have had several over the years, and I have loved every one of them. Years ago there was a fire in the woods behind our house, and it took days to put it out. We were told to be ready to evacuate. I promptly gathered our family pictures and my sewing machine and had them ready to go. The rest I decided could burn; I just couldn't do without those two things! Thankfully, the firemen were successful in getting it extinguished, but my family still teases me about 'have sewing machine, will travel:-)"

Yay for you!! I know you are so excited!! I had a smile when you said it was like Christmas for you, because that is how I felt when waiting for my new stuff!!
Take care,
Kif

:thumbup::thumbup:...I love this about you being ready to take your machine!!!
