August 18, 2009 - My Ellisimo and Imagine were lonely, so I got them a friend! :-)
I'm so tickled girls I can't
stand it! Last year, I traded my Singer in
for a brand new Ellisimo by Baby Lock
(which I love, love, love).... but i
desperately wished I had another machine I
could use for sewing only. I had been
eyeing a simple sewing machine at my dealer
but just couldn't muster up the cash
to make the purchase (can't even say
money is tight 'cause that statement
assumes I have money to begin with! LOL).
Anyway, my friend called me yesterday and
said she was on her way down to the dealer
to buy yet another machine (Brother
Quattro) and was going to trade her Esante
in... next thing I know, she called me and
said she didn't have to use her Esante
as a trade in and asked me if I wanted to
buy it for a ridiculously low price! Not
only did I pick this machine up for
pennies, but she's letting me make
payments (I'll have it paid off in 3
months I'm sure)! So basically, I got
another sewing machine that embroiders a
6x10 hoop too!
While picking it up last night, she sent me
home with a Rowenta iron, lots of fabric
and more goodies! I'm almost
embarrassed to tell you all how much I paid
for this machine! She bought it new for
3,000 about 9 months ago (and she worked a
deal with the dealer to get that, since it
was a cash sale).
I just can't believe it! The good
LORD has been so good to me my friends.
:-)
26946 Oh Terri, I'm so happy for you! You really deserve all the best, for your unconditional kindness and friendship. Love and blessings, Yoriko
46503 I'm so happy for you! It sounds like an incredible machine. I'm so glad that you have such a good friend who thought of you and gave you such a great price!
13644 you put the praise were it belongs !!good girl .Now i am sure you are blessed PTL
2552 Teri, you are indeed blessed and I am so happy for you - that is a wonderful machine and if she bought it 9 months ago - it is like new - you will find yourself using it as an embroidery machine, as well as a sewing machine - no sense in wasting space - if you have a job that you want to finish up fast - just get the Ellismo and the Escante running at the same time - how much fun can that be? Plus you can embroider and stitch on the one or the other - have fun working on all those projects and we do look forward to viewing them on in projects, soon. *4U

OH the time is there - you just have to organize it - so you can use it. Hehehe!

I actually did last night. :-) Was embroidering my quilt blocks on the Ellisimo and sewing them together on the Esante. :-) Jim just moved some furniture before he left this afternoon so when I go home, I hopefully will have both machines sitting next to one another.

53770 CONGRATULATIONS!!! Since I retired, looks like my SE will be my last one. I would love the Diamond but my husband said I'd have to go back to work for that one. That won't happen anytime soon. Maybe one day when I really get bored. Just fishished 2 years of retirement and I haven't seen boredom yet!
by simplyrosie 18 Aug 2009
LOL... sounds like my Mom. She retired in January, but she does make her daily 1-2 hour phone call to me each morning. I told her she may want to think about getting a part time job... I can't entertain her past 8 am. :-)
31666 44631 Oh Teri, I am so thrilled for you. What
fun to have all those sewing machines. I
gave my first Husqvarna embroidery machine
to my younger daughter and she hasn't
had a chance to use it too much yet, but I
know she will.
So happy that you have a bigger hoop too -
just think of all those lovely embroideries
you can do now.
God is good and he answers our prayers.
And thank God for all our friends.
Love and blessings Chris

Oh Chris, I just can't believe the blessing.. my Ellisimo has an 8x12 hoop and all I wanted was a sewing machine (wihtout embroidery)... here I was blessed with one that does embroidery and a large hoop size! I can have both machines running for my holiday presents. I shake my head and often wonder WHY GOD wants to bless me so... oh I'm just so happy I can't stand it! Woo hooo! :-)
8462 AMEN and Hallelulla....God does reward
those who do good....
Way to go GIRL!! now get BUZY with that new
found stash!!!
29374 woooooo hoooooo way cool terito i wanna see a pic of that baby lol

you are so kind and generous to those you
DON'T know. There is a reason the Lord
has poured out His goodness to you! We are
blessed by you!
CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!
