Well, I did it. I bought myself that new sewing machine. Now I have no excuse to put off all the sewing projects I want to get to. Right?
It's a Janome 6600 quilting machine. It sews wonderfully, with many decorative stitches. Yes, most of what I sew uses straight stitching, but it's nice to know that I can get fancy if I want to. I'm excited that it can do a blanket stitch -- I have a quilt top that I've been working on for years that has applique. I HATE applique, and to put all those pieces on by hand is just too much. But if this machine can do the blanket stitch and get these pieces on the quilt -- WOOHOO! One project on its way to completion.
