    Default Yippie....I fell.......into a pinnacle and Baby Lock QCP

    Hi all!
    I really didn't fall into, more like came across a wonderful lady who was ready to part with her Pinnacle frame and Baby Lock Quilters Choice Pro machine (almost mid-arm?). Boy am I in trouble now. No manual yet, and need shoes (feet) and bobbins.
    It's ok to feel sorry for me as I sit at the lowest point of the learning curve on this monster. (I think that's it's new name... ) Low and behold, I still need to make the required floor space available for it's first resting spot. It's kinda like an octapus with parts in the house, parts still in the van. And holy cow, it must be lifted a flight of stairs.
    Did I mention that the kind lady gave me a large box of quilting books too? So I stare at this beautiful machine with it's power cord still attached to part of the frame in the van. lol
    So if anyone would like to toss advice to me about this gettup I would be happy and appreciative to eat it up.
    Happy Sweet, doing the happy dance........

    Congratulations! Can't imagine how I'd proceed from where you are, but some problems are good ones. Have fun with it.

    There are some great quilting groups on YAHOO that helped me tremendously when I needed to set up my Grace frame and Pfaff GQ.
    They have pictures as well for threading, bobbin and quilt on frame.
