I'd not heard of this brand before, but it looks like a beauty. Happy embroidering on your new resident, Helen!
I saw these machines at the Atlanta Quilt and Sew Expo. Impressive! I can't imagine why someone would trade it in or get rid of it unless there was a later model out. Do you have a dealer near you so you can take lessons? What format of embroidery does it use? Happy will make you happy! Kay
Kay, this is not a trade in. Our local Janome dealer is closing down and this is one of the machines they used in the shop. It uses DST format.
I don't think I will have a problem as I found my MB4 very easy to use. This will be a breeze. fingers crossed.

Did you get your machine yet. I would be so full of anticipation. Congratulations and have fun with it.
OHH :(. Still waiting for her to come back from Sydney. I'm going to ring the tech tomorrow
hugs
Helen
very nice , happy embroidering
Thank you. Happy is a very good descriptive word for me at the moment.
hugs
Helen
wow! Congratulations! Looks like you have a heap of fun coming your way. Never seen one of these before - looks like it will be very versatile as well as clever - will you need a pilot's license to drive it??
I love that. when I get my Licence I will make sure I frame it. lol.
Don't believe it will be that complicated.
hugs
Helen
Excellent! I would like one in my room! Congratulations!
Wonderful!! good luck with the new toy. I had looked at Happy machines when I first started. They are good machines. great support from the company too. Enjoy your new toy!! Suzanne
Hi Suzanne
She is a very strong workhorse and has had very little use. Just waiting (not very patiently) for her to come back from Sydney.
hugs Helen
Great to see you here again. Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy your machine.
I am so "happy" to hear from you and so "happy" about your new machine! I laughed when I read, you told your boss you needed some time off to play and got no response. Just wish I could go play with you! I would be happy to watch you stitching with this. Good luck with it-Toogie
So on Monday a very worried 'Boss" said he needed to talk to me abut a comment I had made. Ha. He said we are going to be very busy over the next couple of months as was I serious about taking leave. Told him I was not ready to retire.
hugs Helen
Wow a wonderful looking machine! have fun getting to know her...
What a bargain you have picked up, well done You will have many happy hours creating on this wonderful machine. Look forward to see some new projects from you. Sandra.
Told my boss I will need serious time off to play but he is not responding. LOL
hugs Helen
Congratulations Helen, it looks like a winner. Love Chris
Lucky you Helen. Sarva will look after you, come service time. Try his threads, Gem $5 for 3000mtr . Have fun & Happy Sewing :)))
Pauline, I am hoping to get one of the hoops he has advertised for the Happy. Have not tried his threads yet.
hugs Helen
I bought 18 reels of his threads last month & they sew out just like the expensive threads.The white bobbin fill is good too.Now the find a clear plastic box to keep them in.
You will love your Happy machine! I bought a used fifteen needle Happy machine a few years back and it stitches beautifully. I probably should have gotten the twelve needle Voyager, because it is much lighter weight and can be transported much more easily. Mine is like 240 lbs, so it needs to stay where it is put!! TOO heavy to move easily and was almost too wide to get through the doorways to my sewing room. My husband and his friend that were carrying it told me to please be sure of where I wanted it placed, because they did NOT want to move it again!! LOL
Happy you have a "HAPPY"!
Hugs, Angel
Angel, this is a step up from my MB4 needle. Will need a bigger room if I get any more.
hugs Helen
SO HAPPY for you, It is always fun to add to the family!
Aleene
congratulations, This looks so impressive for someone like me, who owns a 1 needle machine.....
Hope you will have a very happy time, using this one !!
Gerry, thanks. I started with a one needle but don't think I could go back there again. hugs Helen
Oh, Congrats!!! One day, I may get to join the "multi-thread" machine owners. Until then - I will enjoy your happiness!! Hugs, Laura*
Wow! and I am so glad for you. I've missed you so am glad to see you post. And what great news. Enjoy many years of happy stitching with your new family member.
Thanks Karen. I have been kinda lost in the wilderness for quite a while.
hugs Helen
