Finally Got the Guts to Use My Janome "Heart" Machine
 

Call me a coward, call me gutless, but I've owned a Janome "Heart" machine since 2008 and have never even taken it out of the box...until today! I was afraid to use the machine because it is computerized. I finally decided to bite the bullet and teach myself how to use it. [Head slap here]...why, why, why did I ever wait so long to use it? I LOVE IT! I guess I am just a bit slow when it comes to technology...LOL :D:D:D

Anyone else here have the "Heart" (HT2008)? Any tips or pointers for me (besides dope slaps...I give myself enough of these)? Thanks.

I get it!! I did the same thing,with my computerized one, even after taking a class to learn to use it!!

At least I am not alone!

Sorry! I'm laughing with you not at you but a 2008 computerized machine is really old style now. But at least you know you can buy a new one and not wait years to use it. :)

Hey...give me break here. I still use a flip phone and don't know how to do much on it! I told you, I am not one with technology...LOL

Nope...I think I'll stick with the Heart machine until it dies. My last Janome was a mechanical one (the Elite???) and is still going strong. Hopefully the <3 will last many many years.

Enjoy! Hope you have fun with it for many years to come.

I just say "enjoy your 'new' machine! All the best!

Enjoy your new machine - technophobes need to support each other especially when overcoming fear of the computerized sewing machines!

.....wow, just think, now the warranty is expired, if you have a problem........

I open and try everything right away just in case!

But.....I still don't do Facebook, Twitter or any of that social media stuff! Except this one!

I bought the same machine back in February of 2008 and LOVE IT!!! It is an awesome machine and I have used mine many, many times since then. Mine is not picky about thread and I use Connecting Threads almost exclusively in it. I made my DH a denim rag quilt with my Janome and it sewed like a champ. And believe me, that quilt ways a ton!!

I promise the more you use the machine, the more you will love it.
