Sold some old cows and they went better then I thought...........so with the extra money I went shopping...............
What do you think????? Did I spend my money well.............
Still have the old girl but she is making funny noises so I thought while I have the chance why not upgrade.............and upgrade I did in a big way..............lucky this Janome 6600 is on a good special at the moment...........think this is the start of a very good relationship..............maybe love/hate sometimes but generally very good.............
she has lots more features then my old girl.............OMG she goes fast too..............
I was so excited on Saturday I could hardly sew as I couldn't decide what to do first............so many ideas/projects running around in my head I played with the letters/alphabet instead...........
Catch you later
Chookyblue...............
Congratulations!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteHow exciting!
ReplyDeleteOld cows .... new sewing machine.....you will love her Chooky have fun...
ReplyDeleteI had to laugh about selling old cows better than expected... LOL!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations and welcome to the happy Janome MC6600 bunch! I love the machine. If you are ever able to buy the Janome table that’s built to put the machine in, I can recommend it!
You are so lucky! But with the extra money I received these month, this week I'll also get my bernina I ordered on Saturday. I can already sew the blocks of "A gardener's Journal" but I have so many projects I want to do before Christmas!
ReplyDeleteSee you;)
Have a create week with your new machine;)
