I am looking for the name of a reputable online place to order a FMQ blue bobbin case for my Janome 6600. I see lots of places when I google - but just wanted to double check and make sure I use a reputable place. I am somewhat new to quilting (other than small projects ie: table runners, purses etc.). Anything else I may need as well? Thanks a bunch.

I won't be any help, I got mine at my LQS and I love the difference it makes in my FM quilting. Hope someone can help you, I think you will be pleased with this addition.

my dealer just ordered one for me. can you call a local dealer? they can get them cheaper then you can online.

There is a Yahoo group and I think Brubaker's gives you a discount if your join the Yahoo 6600 group.

And you'd be helping your dealer to stay open.

I ordered mine from sewvacdirect.com

Thanks everyone - I appreciate all of your help. Unfortunately my closest dealer is 1 1/2 hours away and with driving a large Dodge truck it is not cost effective due to gas prices. Would rather spent the $$ on fabric lol.. Also he is closed for 3 weeks. I will try Brubakers or sew vac direct. Thanks a bunch!

You might want to try sewingmachineplus as well. They carry a wide array to bobbin case from many manufactors.

I just ordered one from allbrands.com. I also ordered the free motion feet-a set of three. They have good prices and 3 day shipping. I'm supposed to receive it Thurs.

I have one that I don't use.

Well low and behold - I found a dealer closer to me. I had to go out to town today (I live in a very rural area) for an eye appt and I discovered a Janome dealer that I never knew about! I got the low tension bobbin! Yippee! I passed on the 3 piece adjustable FMQ foot set. It was $84 and I just couldn't afford it right now. And I first want to see what kind of difference the blue bobbin case makes.
Thanks everyone! I was happy to find a local shop - I like to to keep my money local whenever possible.

Brubakers in PA. Do you belong to the Janome 6500/6600 yahoo group? If so, tell them and they'll give you a 15% discount.

Had to order a new foot pedal $$ and the service was very fast.

Yes, get it from Brubakers in PA. If you're a member of the Janome 6500/6600 yahoo group, they will give you a 15% discount. I just ordered a new foot pedal for my 6600 and that discount sure helped! I called the store. Whoever answered the phone was very nice.

Oops, sorry, I didn't realize I had posted twice on this subject.
