Enjoy your new machine with no regrets. You've earned it and life is too short to spend time regretting thing. You will have more time for quilting when you retire and will really enjoy your new machine then, as you will enjoy it now.

If your hubby doesn't have a problem with it why should you. Maybe you can even sell some of your items, that should make you feel better about your purchase. People love embroderied things.

Whenever I see something I like, I normally ask myself: Is it something I 'WANT' or is it something I 'NEED'.

Buyer's remorse sucks!

I had the same buyer's remorse when I bought my Viking, just before my DH retired. You'll be glad you bought it. Just give it time. :roll:

ENJOY your machine! You deserve it!

I just bought a Babylock Ellisimo which was my dream machine, and just found out that there is going to be a price increase so I am very glad that I bought it when I did.

Just use the machine... your buyer's remorse will disappear. :-)

I've always thought that if you DIDN'T have a few second thoughts that's when you need to worry about it being a bad idea. You've obviously worked out how you can pay for it, so enjoy your new machine!!
