I'm picking up my "old" friend today from the dealer. When I called her yesterday to tell her I'd be in today to pick it up, I said I wanted to talk to her about the Janome (meaning I would like to trade it for a Baby Lock), she thought I wanted to come for lessons and said, "I can't spend an hour with you to give you lessons." I thought that was a little rude and I don't think I'll go to her again for anything. I'm sure she won't exchange the Janome, either.

Wow, that is pretty rude. Especially since the dealers in my area will give free lessons on how to use your new machine as part of your purchase.

Thanks! I've only used my walking foot for my Juki a couple times and was not impressed. I think I'll try this one.
