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.

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

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

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.

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
