My daughters first projects were pot holders..they turned out great..Have fun!

Congratulation on the adoption of "Bruce".

Yes, I call my machine names, but none that are printable here!!!

Hmmmmm, does your DH know about your affair with Bruce????

LOL Enjoy every minute you and Bruce spend together. No, I don't name my machines.

OH I am soo excited for you! I don't know if I would make it 2 weeks!!!

I just got a Juki and frame...if I learn how to do that type of quilting, I am going to save, save, save until I can find a used longarm.

My Bernina is Sadie and my Juki is Blossom.

Good for you, you will enjoy it once you get tht hang of it.
Enjoy, enjoy and have fun.

Sounds like you are getting a good deal. Just to be able to call for help when you need to is a real bargin.

Congratulations on the beginning of a long and lovely relationship with Bruce.

Congrats on your new baby!!! Of course we name our quilting machines, my Innova's name is Dorothy!

WOW Congratulations! You will love it! If it is used I am sure the large sum is not as bad as it would have been with a new one. Let us know and post a pic when Bruce comes home.

[By the way it is called Bruce. Does anyone else name their machines?[/quote]

I just call mine Lizzie since it is a Tin Lizzie 18 LS. I have a friend who calls her seam ripper "Wilma".
