I'm lucky in that I got a Janome 7700 for my birthday 6 months ago but I have always wanted a feather weight and last Saturday I was attending a quilt class and saw an embroidery class in session and got to see what the Janome 12000 can do. I've also seen the sweet sixteen at the shop and wonder what it would be like to own that.

I would like a new Bernina....love my 20 year old one but it has no extras on it. I don't need a long arm since I am a hand quilter. I would like ONE room so that I didn't have to cut fabric in the dining room, run upstairs to the sewing machine in a spare bedroom, get up from the machine to the next room to press any seam. No wonder I don't get much completed. Maybe I will lose weight like Mitch's Mom---wouldn't ya think???
Love to actually SEE my small stash---not have to dig through cardboard boxes. I can dream!!!

I want my local dealer to go to CT with me when I return in Apri, so I can have him keep my machines in tip-top shape, plus his staff for all the classes they givel. And I want my daughter to live a little closer so I don't have to drive 1-1/2 hours to visit her! Also want my son and his family to live closer so I don't have to get on a plane or drive in DC traffic to visit them.
That just about does it. Now I'm grinning like the Cheshire Cat!
