Broke down and bought a new machine

My old machine (Husqvarna Topaz 30) had reached it's end date (at least with me!) I got tired of constantly bringing it into the shop for minor repairs.

So I bought my new toy ... and I can't wait to get sewing on it!

Thanks! I'm excited ... just finished reading the reference guide and accessories manual ... a little daunting to look at the instruction manual! It's huge!

It certainly wasn't cheap, but I have no life LOL ... I work full time, have a dog, cat and parrot, and quilting is my only hobby (well, books too) ... if I had other hobbies, it wouldn't have been this one for sure!

So I have figured out to connect all the things I want / need - embroidery needle, hoop, free motion, dual feed, etc. Now, I just have to stick one of my quilts that is ready to be quilted in there and get going.

I'm a bit nervous because it sews quite differently (smoother and quieter) than my huskvarna ... we'll see how it goes!
