    Thanks for the heads-up about a new Janome machine. I'm in the market for a new machine and I played with the 6600 last week. I'm a died-in-the-wool Bernina owner who can't afford their new machines, but who wants the larger (11") throat for free-motion machine quilting (Yes, I've done a king-sized quilt in a 7" space!) Buying a sewing machine is a tough and expensive decision to make, so I appreciate hearing your review.

    I replaced my 1970 Singer Golden Touch & Sew 18 months ago with the Janome Memory Craft 6600, only because I thought the Singer was dying. It still sewed great but sounded like it was throwing a rod! I never desired a machine with knee-life, needle-down button, knotting button, free-motion quilting capability, 11" harp–and now I couldn't live without it. Saturday I did my first machine applique of two dragonflies on a quilted jacket I'm making. I thank my husband at LEAST once a day for buying me the Janome, AND the table it fits in. Buy that, too!

  3. I have 4 Janomes, and am anxiously awaiting the arrival of the 7700! They are good solid machines, and most dealers do service and stand behind their machines!

    The LQS that I work at is a Janome dealer. We are excited to see that new machine and play on. Glad you had a good experience shopping.
