Hi, I had inquired about the Janome Artistic Edge Cutter, sometime back in April. I was able to go to a class that explained the software. I was however disappointed as I had understood they were going to demonstrate the cutter. Never even got to touch the cutter it was all things the instructor had made using the cutter. Has anyone else experienced this? I realize the software is important...but wouldn't it have been a little nicer to actually see something done with the unit itself? As it is I don't know a whole lot more about it then I did before. Thanks for stopping by.

I think you may be pleasantly surprised with the video available on youtube. Good Luck!

Thanks, I've sure I would but haven't purchased it as it isn't in the budget at the moment, maybe some time.

The classes are to try to sell the product. Unfortunately, unless it is a hands on class, what you will learn is what it can do but not how to use it. I do hope you manage to learn how to use it.

You are so very right, I hadn't been to one before and didn't realize this...do now. I also found out that most of the ones there already had the machine, so they did have an advantage. it was just misrepresented as the store ladies didn't know anything about the actual unit either. Live and learn. It's not in the budget at the moment anyhow. Thanks, sorry it took me so long to get back to you.

Sounds like the smart young geek I bought my Smartphone from. He kept "showing" me how to do stuff on it by doing it (upside down from where I stood). He just wanted to play with it. I kept telling him, if you don't let me try it, I won't get how to use it. And I didn't. The second time I went in and went straight to him and said, now I'm going to hold it and you're going to talk me through this. That worked - except he kept trying to take it from me!

Sorry I took so long to reply. :) Thanks for stopping by, I didn't purchase the cutter because of this reason. It was like a show and tell all about the educator and what she was able to do and accomplish with it. Oh well it was a day out with like minded people.
