I hope you go and take lots of pictures and get the scoop in person!

I think it is cute. I like it, but not going to pay that price for it.

She is adorable!!! Mine is 3 I think and her brother lives here with her and he is 5 (different litter). Then I have a sheprador puppy and a irish setter/lab mix. They all love each other and play very well together surprisingly. My SIL breeds Poms and she has 19 right now so can you imagine how much fun that would be living there? Nothing beats the pitter patter of pommie paws!!

Since a lot of you knock the newer Singer machines, I'm very curious as to how many of you actually bought them from a dealer or bought them at Walmart, Sam's, Costco, QVC, etc. I have two fairly new Singer machines, Quantum 3400 (I think it is about 10 years old and no longer manufactured) and a Futura 350 (4 years old) and I have never had a problem with either one. By the way, they were both purchased from an acutal Singer dealer.

I'm still taking a wait and see approach (Billy seems to think they will be built well and people that have the new FW 75 like them) - but if it is way to expensive or really doesn't sew well or have the stitches I'd want it to have (or a combination of those things) it would be out. I'm not thinking of 'investment', but its kind of cool in a history kind of way, because it is a Centennial and also it looks like it would be easy to show someone how to sew on - not as much power under the hood as the Janome.
