My New Machine has arrived.

I have unpacked it and it is sitting in its sewing position. I am now studying the manual. Boy It seems a lot to take in. He will be known as the BIG BOY in my sewing room, as he makes the 11000 look small. The box it came in was so large it only just fitted in the car. The Embroidery unit was in another separate box, plus a box with the bonus pack containing a quilting book, I-pad, a CD of designs, a USB stick, and a box of 25 rose pink bobbins . Hugs

Hi Shirley, congratulations on your new baby "BIG BOY". I hope you have many happy hours sewing on him. He looks really sturdy and how about the technology today - WiFi?! Amazing! Love Chris

Thanks Chris. It sure does look sturdy. As for the WiFi I don't have the luxury of it at the moment. But I will cope just fine without. Maybe one day in the future I may get it.

I sure hope to Sue. It has taken me a long time to pick up the courage to invest in it, "the beast" & Big Boy, great names.

Thanks Marg. I will take my time as I have other things to cope with at the moment. But when I start I hope there will be no stopping me. Hugs

Thanks. I hope I will enjoy my Big Boy. I have just finished watching the DVD and that looks so much easier than the instruction book.
