Do you love it?! Better than the one you stole from your mama? ;)

Have Fun!

Judy said...

Nice! I have the 835 and I love it! Would have loved that one with the auto-tensioner, but a bit too pricey for my budget...enjoy!! Can't wait to see what you crank out on there!

Tracey Jacobsen said...

how fun (and it is pretty)! I'm in the market currently... what's the price range on this one? Is that a 9" or 11" harp?

Esch House Quilts said...

Oooh - love the size of that throat and all the stitches! Lucky you!

I hope you love this machine. It is the only brand of machine I can buy in my town and I would love to get it. I am hesitant because I have read a bunch of reviews that said they had the bobbin thread nesting problem.

Amy said...

Would be interested in hearing your review of the machine after you've had some time to play with it.

My friend Robin has a Sapphire and loves it.
Sew in good health with it!!!!!!!!!!

I got a new machine last year, its a
"B" word. I love all the features and I'm sure you will on this new machine too! Did Mom get her machine back?

Jessica said...

Yeah! I got a new machine a couple months ago and am still in love with it. Enjoy!

mamammelloves said...

Oh my goodness! I've been eyeing this one for a while! I'm hoping "Santa" will get it for me for Christmas! I would love to hear your review on it, so I know for sure if I'm gonna like it, although I can't imagine NOT liking it, compared to the little one I have now! Enjoy playing! :)

I've had the 870 for almost two years now. Love it!!

dolores said...

Show-off!;)

Jo @ life in lists said...

Yay, how exciting! I have a husqvarna (a much more basic model) and I absolutely love it - I'm a complete convert to the brand.

VickiT said...

Ooh how fun. Now I know why you've been so quiet. Lucky you. Congrats on the new toy.

Unknown said...

AH!!!! CONGRATS! I have been eyeing that line forever! I have a Scandinavia 400 and really want to upgrade.. but I'm still saving my pennies. Look at you with the highest Sapphire! AWESOME! :o)

Timolily said...

*jealous* My new toy is in the north Pole, waiting to be packaged and delivered in a months time :-)

Janet said...

Big difference from you Mom's machine I bet! Congrats!!

Unknown said...

You are going to just love your Viking!! I have Vikings since 1995 and they are tough work horses and have great features too. Love the extra lighting and the hands free sewing. Best of luck with it and congrats!

I'm sooo jealous. My mum has this machine and it's so lovely to work on. I use it whenever I can and I absolutely love the results. I bet you'll make some beautiful quilts

I recently bought the Sapphire 835, can't wait to see how you like the 875 as I really wanted that one. Looks like you are having lots of creative fun!
