I have the same machine and love it. I also have the 9500 and often have both machines running at the same time :)
I have a Janome 11000 as well you will truly love it and you can buy a update which will make it almost the same as the SE model you get the new hoop with the update I did it last year when they came out.
Have Fun it will be worth it
So, let me ask this... if I may.
When you get a 2nd machine... do you run both at the same time? Double your pleasure????
What fun!
Enjoy. I have a Janome. Check out their website for freebies.
I bought my Designer II on Ebay almost 3 years ago. You are right! It was scarry--especially since it took 10 days to get here, but I love it, and it came with so many extras, including the fabric mover. I didn't have a clue tho, that it was going to be discontinued.
I have one too, but mine is the SE. I figured while I was at it might as well go all the way. You'll love your machine. I find that the more I use it the better I like it. It's so easy to use.
Have fun!
I am absolutely DELIGHTED for you!
I know it will get a great deal of use.
ENJOY.
Wow. What a nice purchase. You will love your Janome. My first machine was a Janome 10,000 and yes I bought it on e-bay. I did not have a clue even how to get started. It was a great learning experience. I know you will have many happy hours ahead of you with your new machine. Hugs, Mary
I hope you have many happy hours of sewing with your new machine.
Yea, you are joining the Jef format family.... I have the SE but I am sure you can get it updated at your nearest Janome dealer.....have fun....
Now that is what I call a brave person. I would have been scared too. I am glad it turned out OK and I wish you a lot of fun with your new baby.
I was expecting to see a picture of it all set up and running away. So happy for you dear.
Well done on your new purchase! Enjoy! I can be a bit daunting to buy machines online but looks like yours is great! Hugs Sally
You will love it! I have the SE and it is my best friend! Have fun!

You sound as thrilled as i was when i got my Brother..
Happy Sewing and a *4u
I'm happy for you.What will be your first project? I guess mine won't be delivered now until Monday. The weather has improved some here but my machine is near Dallas and they have had bad weather also. Guess I'll tough it out a few more days. have fun and make something pretty.

I have made some baby burp pads. The fonts are so easy to use. I also bought a quilt pattern for my GD. I need to make a quilt for my GS.
