Dare Quilt Done!

Dare Quilt Done!

I finished my quiltie for DQS8!!! I had my machine for a couple of days now and..I...LOVE...it.
* 10 inches of harp space!!
* needle up/down
* Auto fix
* The presser foot lifts a tad when I stop (this is nice for chain piecing and turning corners)
* It's quiet
* no skipped stitches
* It doesn't SNATCH my thread and try to make a nest every time I start sewing
* I can load a bobbin from the threaded needle
* Low bobbin indicator!!
* And the WOW, an automatic thread cutter, for which I exclaimed, "I love my machine!" every time I use it.
The Viking Sapphire had nearly all the features of the Pfaff, except the walking foot, but there was more, and I was able to get a better deal.
