Thanks for the tip, I had heard that, and have been trying not to switch machines, although I was severely tempted the other day. Thanks for confirming I made the right choice by staying with the same machine. This board is so informative....helps save me from silly mistakes (at least from more of them than I already make :oops: )

Is it home yet ??? LOL

Its a great message board isn't it!?! :thumbup:

You are one lucky gal! I have a Gem that I bought and one that my Mom left me, and I would not trade either of them for any other. I LOVE how light they are, and can really zip through my piecing with either of them. Great travel machines...Enjoy your new one!

Congrats, that is wonderful. Your daughter will be ecstatic.

Woo Hoo! Congratulations! I am so happy for you. Makes you feel special to win doesn't it?

Congrats!!!!

Yeah! I love it when Nurses have good things happen! Can't wait to see the picture!

Good for you!

Most definitely!

Well, I just got her home. Her name is Cassandra - Cassie for short. She is a demo/shop model so gently used. She is a Janome Jem Silver - 25th Anniversary edition, so while probably not the latest model, she is beautiful to me. ;) Will get pics as soon as DH gets home.

I am so lucky!
