    I have the new Janome Marie Osmond machine and I love it! I'm a new sewing fanatic and I love Marie too. She got me involved through small quilt projects on QVC. If you're just starting out like me or a long time seamstress like my teacher (she loves my new machine by Marie too!) this is a no-brainer! It's "sew" fun and affordable for my first investment machine!!! You'll love it I promise ;)

    P.S. Don't be afraid to take lesson's! We aren't old ladies if we quilt. The things I choose to sew, do not look like my grandmas sewing projects!!!

    The name of the machine is the AQS (not ASQ). It stands for American Quilters Society. The machine is in celebration of the organization's anniversary.
