Well, I got a phone call late Friday, that my sewing machine had just arrived. We picked it up yesterday morning. I am thrilled! She is beautiful! When I first turned her on, the touch screen came on with beautiful music, and said "The Dawn Of Creativity." DAWN.....can you believe THAT! Anyway, I am still blown away by the size of the screen. Almost the exact size of an IPad!
I learned how to thread it, although the first time I did it wrong.
I pretty much know what everything is that I unpacked, and found storage areas in my room for all of the hoops and the scanner/embroider section. I have 4 hoops. Small, medium, large, and huge....about 13" x 20"! Now, at first glance that seems pretty cool, but then I realized I could be investing a lot of money in thread, if I use the huge hoop very often!
I found the settings, and lowered the sound and set the default needle position. And, set the clock and date. Not sure what I need those for, but I set them anyway. And, I played in the equivalent of "Paint" in "My Design Center." DH had to help me a bit, because I got my buckets and my eye droppers mixed up.
Just haven't work in it for a while and forgot!
I'll play some more today. I want to find the laser light line, and also see if I can wind a bobbin. And, try some more of the cool decorative stitches. Oh, and try the needle up and needle down with the foot pedal, and the cut the thread with the other foot pedal. I forgot about those yesterday.
Dawn
But, I don't know if it is Alberta or Saskatchewan, because Montana is directly south of both. Anyway, have a lot of fun playing with your new machine!
