clsurz you are gonna love your new baby. I have the Innovis4500S which is a step below yours and it is awesome. Make sure you try sewing on it too, sews like a dream. I didn't want to put all that stitch count on my machine so I ended up purchasing the Innovis 2000NX to sew with.
Have fun.
Have fun.

I think if you ever try to sell it, it tells just how much it has been used. Like mileage on a car. There may be other reasons as well. When someone lists their machine as slightly used, the stitch count tells the truth. Kinda like the grandmother who only drives their car to church on Sunday.

OK. I really need to be locked up. We went to an estate sale today, as I mentioned, and among other things, I picked up what turned out to be two meat grinders. My son, who is a sous chef, was looking for ours (my mother's) a while ago but I told him it bit the dust in the flood. So ... when I saw these I grabbed them. We brought them over to his restaurant so he could run them through the dishwasher to sanitize them. When we pulled up ... there was a group of people outside going through bins of stuff and tossing it into the dumpster. What they were tossing was TONS of fabric. Turns out they were a theatre group. Well, the stuff was all on top and clean so DH and I went to town and filled the back seat of my car. I guess they had just done a production of Brigadoon because it was all PLAID! So ... back home, I'm going through the fabric, folding, etc. and I realize that a good bunch of it is .... are you ready? ... not quilts ... but .... KILTS!!!!! Well, I don't want them, but I wonder if anyone else here does.

No it isn't you, Krystyna! Sorry....I have a little thing in my stash that I am just waiting to send you if I ever get your name though...
Send those kilts to our friend in Scotland or wash them in hot water and make something out of felted wool!??!
Carol, that stitch count keeps you honest if you ever intend to sell it.
SP, I have your package ready to go but am waiting to get addresses for the FQ swap so I will just have to make one trip to the Post Office...color me LAZY!
