I don't believe it I really don't believe it I won a janome quilting machine and longbed for $2375.00 plus postage of $320.00
I talked my dh and dm into helping pay for it, I can tell you I sat on the computer and I was shaking so much I could hardly contain myself for the last few seconds of the bidding my heart was pounding so much I thought I would have a heart attack,
OMG I still can't believe it

Congratulations...I saw that and had it in my watching list..just for interest...lol. That's a good buy. I don't really have room for one and I badly want to get a Horizon so I didn't bid. But was wishing I could...lol. Good luck with it :)

litacats 08-13-2010 11:02 PM

thanks everyone.
I think my heart has settled down now and my hands have stopped shaking.
I have spoken to the seller (via email) and he seems really nice he says it is in perfect condition, he is upgrading to a computerized system.
so looking forward to getting it.
just have to practice practice and practice some more to get it right.
OH I can't wait :P :-P :lol: :lol:

blahel 08-13-2010 11:39 PM

Go for it girl. Please post pictures.

Mary Bird 08-15-2010 08:52 AM

It's a great setup! AND you can computerize it with a QBOT! It's a bit pricey, but it makes the machine go without you directing it, and does preprogrammed designs!
