    I love my Janomes...I love the 8900! Took it right out of the box, set it up for FMQ according to the book, used the needle it came with, didn't adjust tension, nothing, PERFECT FMQing on the first try. No more eyelashes on the back of the quilt sandwich, I couldn't believe it. I know you will love your machine.

    I was doing the happy dance walking to the car. We got to portland and found the store with no issues what ever. The sales guy John was fantastic and answered all my questions. At one point he made the comment that I didnt ask the usual questions, and chuckled. He offered to start right there with private 2 hour classes but said I would probably get more out of it to go home and experiment for a few weeks and then come with a list. No price bartering, no insisting on a trade in. He had a very nice price on it.

    Since we are headed to grandma we drug it into the hotel last night and up til one am playing and fondling everything. We even did a walmart run for thread and fabric!

    No regrets!

    I'm super excited for you. I've had a Janome 7700 for a couple of years and just adore her (I love my machine so much I decided that something so wonderful could only be a female, and that she deserves a name).

    I've got the 7700 Janome Horizon. It's the third Janome I've owned. I'd get the 8900 but I've only had this one for 14 months and still have some bells and whistles I haven't mastered.
