    That is soooooo exciting Ann - I'm sure there are others out there who are just as excited and jealous as I am!!

    Check out the video and see what it has to show you!! Then get some fabric and start playing around with it!! One ste at a time, have fun, enjoy and let us know all about it!!

    That is awesome!

    Does it have the instruction booklet with it? If so the I would start by reading it. If it doesn't Have the instruction booklet I bet you can find it on line.

    You might be able to see a video about it on line too. after you watch the instructional video.

    Is there a store near you? My local store would be more than happy to show me how to use it.

    Enjoy!

    Okay I'm not really scared to touch it, it's just a little intimidating compared to my little old singer. I will start with the instruction manual and then jump in. Going to look into a class. Now I just have to find the time.

    cool !! i bought one 9 years ago used it a few times and then kind of gave up on sewing etc ( ihad sewed for years before that but didnt have time and the cost of the fabric was more than i could get clothes on sale new )

    its in my attic - i may sell it for christmas money but havent decided yet .

    Congratulations! I've used that same model several times at a biannual charity sewing workshop that my smocking guild has. It's a wonderful machine! Very easy to use. I had no trouble learning to use it. (My serger is a basic no-frills model.)

    Wonderful! I'm happy for you (and I'll admit to being a teensy bit jealous).

    Threading will be the trickiest........don't 'unthread' anything that is already there.

    That is so awesome!! Congratulations and enjoy using it!!

    If you have a local sewing store or studio that offers classes at a reasonable price, it might be a good investment and would have you operating it like a pro very quickly.
