My new sewing machine (Janome 6600) should be coming via UPS today - I am SO excited to get it!! I bought it at the quilt show and they were supposed to send it off last Monday! Not that I will completely abandon my trusty 1977 Kenmore, but the new one has a bunch of those really cool stitches that you can put on things you make for your granddaughter! (Until she is about, what - 5 - and has decided she does not like foo-foo?) I still have a few years to get in all the foo-foo her momma can handle!! HA!!

Wahoo! It's here, and appears to be undamaged by shipping! The box is incredibly dirty, however, on every side! How does UPS get stuff sooo dirty!! Oh well - the box goes in the recycle bin anyway! Tonight the instruction book - tomorrow we sew!!

I can't seem to want to replace my trusty Kenmore either. It weighs a ton or two, but it's reliable. I feel this overwhelming sense of disloyalty when I even consider maybe wanting something else. Weird-o..........
Well, I'll keep mine for those quick things especially if I am in the middle of a project and don't want to change settings on the new one. But pulling the new one out of the box last night was sort of like getting a new baby - there are so many possibilities! Just the fact that it HAS settings that can be changed is going to be fun!
Wowza! THAT is a machine! Can't wait to see what you make with it! Post some pictures.
I completely understand. When I got my Babyloc Quilter's choice a few months ago, I went crazy. And since it has an open arm, I did abandon my old Kenmore. Daughter #4 was thrilled to have the machine that she had learned to sew on.
