I want to try some of the projects that are made completely in the hoop. Did pick her up last night. Learned to wind the bobbin, thread the machine, and sew a seam. Think I am going to love this girl!!! It is BIG!!! Hope it fits in my table. The measurements say that it should...just have to try later today.

I am trying to decide whether to buy this machine....same offer in our area....$5,000.00
off for my old Bernina until Dec. 24th. I wish there were more people that had them, so we could get more reviews on them. I think I am going to purchase it this week. Sure hoping I'm making a wise choice !! Enjoy !!! |
You can only do the best you can, if you have checked it out and would like it go for it. I have seen those big machines and I don't think I would have room for one of them or the $$ to buy one. Have fun, sounds awesome to me.

up OK...finished my granddaughters quilt today...I really liked sewing on it....sews basically like my old SE, but has so many more features...couldn't believe the size of the hoops compared to my SE....Now I have to learn how to make more lace Christmas ornaments...I have the pattern on my thumb drive that came with my SE, now have to figure out how to transfer them....Have a large Horn cabinet but it won't fit in it, so guess it will have to sit on top of it or some major renovations have to be made to my cabinet! |
Another update...still in love! It does fit in my table, my husband ordered the insert for using it flush for fmq as a gift. I read the post about the dream weaver in a frame. Sounds pretty good. You will have to let us know how it works. I have a small brother machine for classes and travel....love it too! Pegstar, used the usb from the diamond for making some of the standup ornaments. Only took me two phone calls to my Viking expert to figure out how to do it. Embroiders beautifully. Front and back look the same!
