    Congratulations on your new baby. I bought the Viking Ruby this past yr and I'm having a blast. I love the cutwork needles; they make doing cutwork so much easier than cutting out all of those little spaces by yourself. I did have a Viking #1; just got it back from servicing and now I'll sell it only because I can't afford two machines and I don't have space for two machines but would love to have two emb. machines. I'd also love a retreat like that. I've only had our monthly emb club where I've learned alot and then our teacher sets up special classes for things we want like cutwork and this past month the Viking Educator came and we spent the whole day with her learning 5D and made a tea towel with monogram and buttonholes and used the cutwork needles to cutout the centers and ran ribbon thru it. You did a great job.

    I was undecided between the Ruby or the Diamond but since this was going to be my LAST machine I got the diamond. They are both wonderful machines. Taking classes is the key to doing great work.

    OH! I have a Topaz30. My girls and I are doing HoopSisters 2012 mystery quilt. We have so much fun doing it together! But I need to learn embroidery. Those are so pretty. I need the pattern. Sounds like I need classes too. I'm just so far from my dealer. ROADTRIP!

    That is Nice. I like to see things done on the embroidery machine. Most of the time the quilt designs seem ac ward for some reason, yours look nice.

    It's great if you have a dealer close by but there are a lot of LQS that offer classes but they don't care what machine you have. We also have a sew and vac place here that have embroidery clubs and they don't care either. You may be able to do a google search or call a few places in your area but I know that here that's the way it is. My viking teacher will let anyone take the class and another Janome store is the same way. It would be great if you could find some; it really does help alot. I also read all the tutorials on line at emblibrary.com under projects and Kennys corner and any other sites that have tutorials. By doing this I've learned how to trouble shoot and fix problems that I've had while embroiderying. Good luck to you and your girls.
