Luana gave a great description of the improvements of the 8900. I just traded in my 7700 and I am so glad that I did! My first thought while sewing on the 8900 was that she purrs!

Exclamation I will never use red and maroon fabric in a quilt again!

I have driven myself crazy trying to get these fabrics to quit bleeding. I have used different rinses and color catchers. Any other advice on how to deal with these colors?
