Cagey Posted February 26, 2015 Report Share Posted February 26, 2015 I would be a few months, but maybe you will get both new "babies" on the same day. Now that would be a true Millennium upgrade!!!! Best of luck with both new babies. Cagey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WW Quilter Posted February 26, 2015 Report Share Posted February 26, 2015 Whoo Hoo, Valerie! Can't wait to see what magic you will do with your Millie! You go, Girl! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pumpkinpatchquilter Posted February 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2015 I love you APQS but we have GOT to change this limited likes for the day policy! LOL I promise I won't go hitting the "like" button all willy nilly on you. You all are awesome and thank you so much!!! I cannot say I haven't been using the down time to obsess a wee bit. They say the package will be shipping "freight" and I tell you what - words are intimidating! I got all nervous and scared as I have to return my machine head the same way...so I Instagrammed APQS and found many photos of happy customers receiving their "freight" packages. It comes in a pretty white box that looks a lot like what my Juki arrived in. Well listen guys, marketing WORKS! When they tell you in school that colors can calm people - that big white box looks so much less scary than the word "freight" sounds. Yipppeeee! I AM SO EXCITED!!!!

psvenn Posted February 26, 2015 Report Share Posted February 26, 2015 Congratulations! It will be here before you know it. I received my certified "Valentine" Millie yesterday! She is still warming up in her pretty white box. I wish I could quilt as well as you do Valerie, can't wait to see your progress with your Millie.

Pat C Posted February 26, 2015 Report Share Posted February 26, 2015 OOooooooo -- congratulations Valerie!! I've often wondered what your work would be like with a SR machine after seeing what you can do on a non-SR machine. I can only imagine. It just shows you really don't need SR to create beautiful work, just practice. I know you're very dedicated to your quilting and the results prove it. I'm so happy for you! The sky is the limit.

dlnewell Posted February 26, 2015 Report Share Posted February 26, 2015 Yes, congratulations! I'll be expecting to see your name as quilter on some major quilting awards in the future! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mamaahma Posted February 26, 2015 Report Share Posted February 26, 2015 You mean you HAVEN'T been quilting with a stitch regulator?!??! OMG, I can't believe it! I'm SO looking forward to seeing what you do now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pumpkinpatchquilter Posted February 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2015 Hahahaha that is the BEST ever reaction!!! I have always tried to quilt like the "big quilters" and create really fancy work even though I had a basic machine. If I didn't love detail work and some of the really precise kind of designs that I do, I could have probably quilted on my Ultimate 1 forever! LOL But I really worked that baby to death...and the handles just went on it, I probably could have just replaced them and kept on quilting. It did limit me to some extent...but there were still LOTS and LOTS of things I could do. I just had to be creative! I REALLY want that stitch regulation and Joyce was able to help me really get EXACTLY what I wanted and at a price I could afford. So I am super excited to see what opens up for me now that I'm going to have some new exciting features too! You mean you HAVEN'T been quilting with a stitch regulator?!??! OMG, I can't believe it! I'm SO looking forward to seeing what you do now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QuiltGuy Posted February 27, 2015 Report Share Posted February 27, 2015 This is sooooo cool and you are so deserving...your work is amazing and I am excited to see what you can do with the new machine. This is like the Violin protege' who has been making do with a decent "journeyman" Violin but receives a Stradivarius to continue with. Just couldn't be happier for you.
