That's right: Its a Brother SE-400!
Holy Moly! I read the entire user's manual from cover to cover. Three times. It totally spoils me: Threads itself, cuts its own tread- and tells me if my bobbin is running low!, has programmable back-stitches, I can control stitch types and their widths with a push of a button!!
And speaking of buttons: the thing can sew by itself!
(I have tried this feature, but it made me nervous: kinda tricky to reach up and punch the stop button when you are using both hands to feed the fabric. I think I am just an old-school pedal kinda gal...)
And the best part of this machine? My new addiction???? EMBROIDERY!!! Yes. I'm not kidding. This things can embroider, and not only does it have a bunch of images and fonts already store on there, I can download them from my computer to my machine and go to town! Check out this cute Valentine heart and monogram set I bought off Etsy! I was able to embroider a cute top for Morgan Jane and one is in the works for our sweet friend, Hannie-girl....
I am in l.o.v.e.

Lucky you....and I can totally understand your enthusiasm for the machine. After 30 years working on the same sewing machine, my mom was like a little girl getting her first doll....a new fancy shmancy machine that sounds a whole lot like your new one!! She got it for Christmas. If you're anything like her, you'll walk by and drool a little every time!! Have a wonderful, creative time. I sure wish we lived closer!
