You guys are awesome! How did I not find you sooner? LOL. When I was doing all my research on the machine over the last week, I would find lots of posts about the 830 and how ridiculous it was to spend that kind of $$ on a sewing machine when there are other less expensive models in this economy. I do guilt better than most (growing up in a catholic school will do that too you, lol), so I truly do appreciate the encouragement that it was "ok" for me to do this for myself. Luckily, my husband also has a hobby (remote-control helicopters, planes, and cars) and it is an $$ hobby. He has NO issue with me doing this and has been supportive, so I will just count myself as one lucky girl and stop stressing about it and just enjoy her!
The QS called last night and they got their delivery early
SOOOOOO, if they can get her sewn in this morning, I MIGHT even get to bring my girl home this afternoon. I'm not ready for her though!!! I wanted to rearrange and get the room all set up, lol. Maybe I'll just set her in the dining room with a tiara on top while I shuffle
Aw, who am I kidding...I won't be able to resist unpacking her and playing! I have another question about my cabinet, but will start another thread for that.
Thanks again everyone! You are all so kind!
