No...I had no idea and since I live in Mexico I choose the Brother version since they have representation in here....I am very happy with this machine :D

I am in love with mine! You will be soooo happy with your new baby! And she's a fast devil- fmq will be so much fun.

congratuations..i have one also and just love it...works well on any fabric..i love the extention table also...also love the thread cutter..works like a wonder...enjoy...

I have the TL 98E, about 7 years old and she still makes me smile when I use her! Enjoy!

Just remember when you first work with it to keep your fingers and blouse and whatever else may have a tendency to go under the needle AWAY! lol You will absolutely love it ,I know I love mine even thoguh it stays on the quilting frame

That's what I just got!! Isn't it great??? It works well on the Handi Quilt frame and you're right, it is FAST.

A good quilter would have taken the machine to the wedding.......LOL

you never know, something might have needed altering.


She is a beauty.

Good lord no, I'd have a line a mile long for repairs! :lol: :lol:

Thanks everyone, I did play with her for a few minutes before we left for the wedding. But... I'm back now so I can play some more now. :thumbup:

:thumbup: :thumbup: Congratulation. Penny

You're right about that! Folks at church found out I could sew and BOOM, I've sewn bridesmaid dresses (hated that one), seams in suit pants, replaced zippers, added "extentions" to dresses that were too short, hemmed pants that were too long, altered jackets, etc. Finally I learned to sometimes say no. I'm not asked to maked bridesmaid dresses anymore. I hate working with slick, unravely fabric. But I do still mend a little. Sometimes I say, "Do you have a portable machine?" If they say yes I'll tell them to bring it next Sunday and I'll stay after church and show them how to fix the problem. That usually solves two problems at once, their's and mine.
