    A local Quit Shop owner offered to sell me a brand new Baby Lock Jewel Long Arm machine complete setup with almost all of the extras for $8000. Hubby told me go ahead get it...you never do anything for yourself. i was thrilled he told me too but in no way can I justify spending that kind of money-I want to get out of debt not create more lol
    It was nice though to touch and play with it-even if just for a moment in time lol

    I know the feeling. Would love to have a long arm and hubby says just go and get one but with the economy the way it is I'm afraid to spend that much money on myself.

    Thanks Loretta. The only real debt we have is from when the little one was born and our house and cars (which I just finished paying one off in November so Im down to one-yeah!!)
    And you are right-some day I will have one and I won't need to create debt to get it-which will make it much more enjoyable for me :-)

    My Dh would start coughing if he knew the price of a long arm! Might have to call 911 for him!

    wow - what discipline - I do understand... maybe set up an account and put the money in that you were paying for car payments and then each time you pay something off - just keep adding money to the account - it will grow quickly and you won't miss the money you've already been paying off other things with.

    Babylock always has a sale this time of the year. So maybe if you save up for it, you can swing it next year. They have some really good deals too. I would give anything almost for one of these. For now I'm gonna save for the Grace Pinnacle frame as I have the Babylock Pro Quiltingers Choice Professionel & it will fit on this nicely. Would the dealer let you pay it out like layway?

    Unfortunetly he wont. If I finance it it would have to be through the credit union I work for which would be fine but no layaway :-(
    Maybe next year I will have enough. This one had it all-the stylus, the grace pinnacle frame....ahhhh someday lol
