  • Fantastic! Don't forget there's a Sewing thread on here, a bit quiet lately but I'm getting my sewing mojo back now Spring is approaching. Glad you found a machine.

    Happy sewing I hope you really enjoy your new machine, Janomes are great.
  • The original link is dead now, but there is great sewing machines article, so if someone looking for one - feel free to read it.
    IT is one the most growing industry to work in
  • Just ordered the new machine on sale in Aldi in the online pre sale. Waited over a week after it went on sale in the shop for it to arrive. Opened it up - there is pink cotton on the bobbin in the machine, a piece of material where it looks like someone has tried different stitches out and parts missing. Aldi's suggestion? I contact the warranty company and try and order the missing parts myself. Oh and they have sold out so I can't get a replacement. Gutted
