    Congratulations - you will love it. I've had an Ellisimo for a month now and it's pretty intuitive.
    I looked at all the machines before making my choice. My top 3 were the BL E and Janome and Bernina 580. I'm glad I made the choice I did and I sure you will be just as happy.

    You are right, it seems much easier than some of them.

    I feel like a little kid waiting for Christmas. Tuesday can't come fast enough.

    Congratulations on your new purchase. You're gonna love your new machine. Have fun learning all the new features of it.

    The thing I most enjoy with my machine (Pfaff 1471) is the needle down feature! Makes applique so much easier!

    Congratulations! I'm still sewing on my old, mechanical Kenmore and just can't seem to give it up. I want a new machine really badly but can't make up my mind which to get, whether to spend all that money, etc., etc., etc. I hope you post more about how you like your new machine and what it takes to adjust to it & all.

    I love my Babylock too--just a Quest--I can't imagine needing more. Congrats on your new baby!
