Ordered the Brother PS500 today. Supply lines are struggling, which wasn't unexpected, so the mid-line machines have been tough to keep in stock.
I went in expecting to buy the Baby Lock Presto 2, turns out Brother makes Baby Lock, and the one I ordered is basically the same machine, with a better warranty.
They gave me a bit off for the broken Singer, and it will be recycled. They don't use older used parts for repair, he said they stopped doing that years ago.
A bit more than I wanted to spend, but the base model machines would not have been a good choice for me. I can't wait to get my hands on it...I've been wanting to make some placemats, which will be a good first project to learn the machine.
On a rant...went to watch our oldest grandson play baseball this morning, and something stung my left ring finger right by my wedding ring. Never saw what it was, but man did it hurt. Immediately took my rings off, which was good because it started to swell. My whole finger hurts still, and looks bruised. It didn't get too puffy, but aches, and is starting to itch.
The team won the first game, lost the second. The differences in the sizes of the kids is amazing.
