Should I buy a new machine?? UPDATE

First, thank you all for your advice. I took it all into consideration, but, on an impulse (I know, that's not how you should buy such an expensive machine!), I walked out of the LQS with a Unity Baby Lock. I spent several hours looking at the Bernina, Janome, and Baby Lock. In my very humble opinion, the Bernina and Janome couldn't hold a candle to the Baby Lock. Of course I spent more than I should have, but I very seldom buy anything for myself, so I went for it. That is not to say that I still feel guilty for spending so much. It is a beautiful machine and does more than I will ever be able to learn, but I think it is much more user friendly.
I can't wait to embroider with it!!!!

good for you! I love my Janome so if Baby Lock is that much better than a Janome I know what brand I will look at when I buy by next machine!

Good for you! It sounds like you made a great investment. Have you had an embroidery machine before?

Don't have any guilt feelings. Just sew and enjoy!

I have the Babylock Crescendo and love it - I think they make great machines, and their user manuals are very clear and easy to follow. Congratulations!
