I tried all morning to get Bubba to replicate the noise it was making. Once it finally did, I changed the thread so that I could take it back to the shop and then it wouldn't sew at all! I messed with it and talked to Jen online a little and decided that I was tired of messing with the hassle that he kept giving me. It's been one thing after another for the last year.
So, I decided to trade him in. It was a tough decision, but I really don't want to start hating to use the machine to do anything!
So..... I went and looked at a machine at a couple of the local shops. One shop gave me a really good price with the trade in. I left and thought about it and when I went back, she gave me an even better deal and threw in a $50 foot!
This is what I got!
It's a Janome 6600 and I think it's a great upgrade! I've decided that since it's an upgrade, this machine is a female and her name is JJ.
As you can see, I've tied her out and I LOVE HER!! Now, I have to get busy and finish my cupcakes for the shop. I should really be able to bust these projects out now!

Sorry about Bubba - but wishing you and JJ years and years of sewing happiness!!!
Congratulations!! I'm soooo happy for you!!! Welcome JJ to the 6600 family!!
Congrats! I know many people with this machine and they love it.
Congratulations! She's purty and I bet she won't turn snarky on you like that Bubba did. Have fun!
I'm a little jealous. :-)
Welcome to the world of Janome! You are going to love the 6600! Barbara
Sweet! What a great machine to get. I bet you will have hours of fun! (I'm so jealous :o)
OK - I was going to post about my new machine today and then I read this post about yours. I hang my head in shame. I love my Janome for quilting but bought a new Brother for regular sewing. I feel so cheap... :)
I love my Janome, Jill. I have the 6260, so it's a lesser model than what you have, but it works like a charm and has everything I need in a machine.
Bubba served you well and now he's gone. The King is dead, love live the Queen!
The cupcakes are adorable.
RIP Bubba... You gave it your all! and so did you Jill!
Hello JJ! I agree that it was time... Good for you! 8-)
May you enjoy many happy hours/days/months/years together! 8-)
