Thanks everyone. Ya'll are fanatical. Funny.... but fanatical. (I do love this board) After I finish my pile of hems (on my regular machine) I plan on getting to know my new BFF intimately. I think a nice cleaning and lubricating will come first. She is such a little cutie. Almost better than a grandchild. I said ALMOST!! That was my other "like totally" terrific news this week. My youngest daughter (the only one left that can do this) announced that she is expecting in April. I had seriously given up hope. I thought my 3 year old DGD was the end. I will be putting my new little BFF to work very soon!!! My joy is uncontainable.

It looks like it might have a Centennial badge.

She's a pretty lady and I am sure she won't mind doing the jeans. Lucky you.

Nice machine you have there. Enjoy!

I do hope you have a FW to go with the Buttonholer attachment. If not tell DH that you can't use the attachment without a FW, so He needs to be on the lookout to get you one!!
