because of all i have suffered through recently, not to mention having no machine since July.....

My Darling DH, Ray, just bought me a Designer Diamond & the dealer has shot in a Brother Innov'is 750D for free.

Ray reckons it will be the therapy i need to keep up my morale.

Forget Monday, I can't wait for Wednesday now. :-)))

And Elna can go jump!!! I loved my machine but it isn't worth this heartache.

well, my brother is bringing his Bride to be to meet us in about 5 minutes, so I'd best make myself presentable.
Hugs n roses to all,
an ecstatic, Meganne who'll be sewing again on Wednesday YAYAYAYAYAYAY!

Yahoo!!! I have a Diamond & love it. Send me a PM if you have any questions! But sounds like you have a great dealer who will be willing to help you! HOpe you have already gone to the Viking site and downloaded the Dec. free design of the month! It's for the Mega hoop! And beautiful!

Thanks Gerry, I went to the site but wasn't getting the megahoop at that stage, now I am getting it so i'll go back and collect it. I have all these Grandiose ideas of Creating panels for a black lacquered room divider screen, Ray will make the screen and i'll digitise and embroider different panels to put each side of each panel. One side I'd like to do Sfumato Photo's of my family and Ray's and the other will probably be Australian Flora and Birds, and they'll be interchangeable so when I get sick of them I can swap them. Well I did say Grandiose Ideas didn't i? LOL.
hugs n roses, M

Meganne, I am so happy for you - a DIAMOND - that is so wonderful - you will love it for sure. You will be stitching up a storm for that wedding - woohoohoohoo. Please get a picture of you in front of it with your first project. Can't wait to view it, too.

Get pictures of your brother and his birdie to be, too. Hehehe!

Congrats on the new Designer Diamond Sewing/Embroidery Machine... I also have a Wonderful Husband who bought me one when they first came out, I love it!!! I've been taking free classes @ viking, learning so much about it... The Majestic Hoop 14.25" x 13.75" or 360mm x 350mm Really opens up a whole new word for embroidery working... I will never go back to the smaller ones again... Any way, Congrats Again! and Enjoy! I am... Here is a pic of my baby...

Congratulations! - I was at the Viking store yesterday and a woman from Venezuela was picking up her diamond - guess she came her to visit with her daughter and bought the diamond here. The manager could not understand her at all, and they were having to use the cell phone to translate - bt, good for you! what is the Brother Innovis 750D? is that another embroidery machine? How lucky can you be.
