I love it when someone gets a new machine. We can get so enthused and it certainly puts the spice back in our sewing lives. Enjoy your new machine!

Jeanette Frantz 09-28-2013 08:35 PM

Congratulations! Enjoy your new machine! I can't imagine being without a machine for a year! I would be a half-step away from a padded cell at Chattahoochie! LOL

Good for you. That is always exciting, and I have a strong feeling you will love your Janome. How on earth did you go that long without a machine??

katesnanna 09-29-2013 05:00 AM

Congratulations. I'm excited for you.

JustAbitCrazy 09-29-2013 05:26 AM

I am so happy for you! Are you loving it? I can't imagine going a year with out a sewing machine. I'd have probably begged for one for free at a yard sale before that long, lol!

klgls 09-29-2013 05:26 AM

Awesome! Enjoy it!

grandme26 09-29-2013 05:56 AM

Congratulations!!! You'll enjoy it.

Emma S 09-29-2013 06:00 AM

Good for you! I don't know how you made it a whole year without a sewing machine. Now, of course, we expect to see all kinds of pictures of finished projects.

I know exactly how you feel. I have been looking at sewing/embroidery machines forever. My DH and I have discussed and cussed this and did budgets and waffled back and forth. This weekend I went to an Anita Good Design show and bit the bullet-bought on of the machines used at the show at a discount and got more software than I will ever use with it. I am freaked and excited and scared all at the same time.

Good luck with your new machine and enjoy your time with it. A year is a long time not to be able to create!!

Now sew up a a storm!!!

IBQUILTIN 09-29-2013 10:20 AM

Congratulations and a comment about a "used" machine. I bought a Viking Prism in a cabinet for a great price about 7 years ago, mainly for the Koala cabinet, and I have used that poor machine half to death. When it gets tired, I take her in for a cleanup and manicure and she is so happy she purrs for another year or so, Glad you found something you like at a bargain

MargeD 09-29-2013 10:21 AM

Congratulations on your new sewing machine. I don't know how you managed to go a year without sewing - I'd have been in the looney bin by then. Here's to many happy hours with your new machine.

Tiggersmom 09-29-2013 11:10 AM

We want to see pictures of your new baby! Congratulations, I like so many others, don't know how you did without a machine for sooooooo long!

I have 2 extra I call my 'just in case' machines. ooops, make that 3. :eek:

jeanharville 09-29-2013 11:39 AM

So happy for you. I do hope you will post a photo of it and your new creations.
