I put a Janome 6700P on layaway today!
I posted a couple of weeks back that I wanted a machine that could do the serpentine stitch, and in the end, decided that I wanted more than just that. The Janome dealer called me yesterday to let me know that they finally had one in that I could try, so we went over there today and I pulled the trigger! https://cdn.quiltingboard.com/images/smilies/smile.png
I was really pleased to hear that they have layaway - I didn't think anyone did that any more. I think I'm really going to be happy with the machine and all of it's bells and whistles. I'm looking forward to learning free motion quilting, and I want to start making labels for my quilts. Does anyone here have this machine? How do you like it? |
on my 2nd Janome . Had 8000, now 9700.
97 .love both. You won't be sorry for choosing Janome. |
Congrats on your new machine. I can imagine your excitement and getting ready to bring it home.

Congrats on your new machine! Your first post got me thinking to see if I had this stitch on any of my
machines and I have it in my Brother XR 9550PRW, and after that my friend sent me a picture of a quilt where she sewed the binding to the front of the quilt with the serpentine stitch. So your post has led to another option for me. |
Congratulations! I love my Janome MC6600P.

Congratulations. You won't be sorry. I know all, or at least most of us are brand specific on here and have our favorites,. I happen to be a Janome girl. I am on my second one, and neither have let me down. Enjoy your first meet and greet with your new machine when you get it home 😎

Congrats! If my 7700 ever dies that's the machine I would get to replace it!

So your post has led to another option for me. I didn't know how I would like the knee lever, but after trying it today, I really like it! All of my other machines are vintage mechanical machines that are mostly all metal. That's one of the things I like about Janomes - they have those metal frames, and this one has a mostly all metal case too. I have a vintage New Home and a Janome made Kenmore and they're both great machines. I do feel really good about the machine and that it's the right one for me - I just wish I could bring it home tomorrow! It's probably going to be a couple months until I get it paid for and it can come home with me. |
I have an older Janome MC 6600 and *lurve* it. (And with this stupid pandemic still going on - it gets used every day)

congrats on your new machine
