Today is a very special day. Seventeen years ago exactly I bought my first embroidery machine a Brother Galaxie 3000. The start of a brilliant adventure that I am still on. I had been going to buy a new Galaxie 2000 which I had access to and used a lot. My dealer who I still use said no have a 3000 I have a almost new pre loved one have that. I’m still buying from him and listening to his advice.

Amazing the little decisions and coincidences that add so much meaning and joy to our lives. Of course, I don't really believe in coincidence.

From seeing the first embroidery machine in action in 1999 I knew I wanted one. It was the death of a friends mother and my friend gave me some money to buy the machine I had kept talking about which is how I bought my first machine

It's amazing that you knew the date of the first embroidery machine purchase. All I know about my first one is, that i thought a 4x4 frame would be sufficient. Ha ha. Continue enjoying you latest machine.

I have the receipt from the purchase which is how I know exactly the date

I agree, what a very special day it is for you and for your machines. I hope you manage to do a project that will give you a lot of pleasure. And kudos to your very wise dealer too.

Today so far hasn't been a sewing day. Currently I am making a play rug with animals on for a friend who has become a grandparent for the first time. The mat is for her grandchild

And what an adventure it has been...great that your dealer is still there to support...

My dealer is about 3 hours each way from me but well worth the effort to visit or just phone for advice
