I've never owned a new machine before. All of mine have been used and
at least slightly eccentric. I decided I deserved to have at least
one brand new machine in my lifetime and no time was going to be a
better time than now. I've joined the ranks of those who own a Shark
Euro Pro from Target. Not having a huge sum to spend I got the medium
priced one, the 7133. It came with lots of cool stuff including a
walking foot, clear plastic quilting table, and a hard plastic dust
cover shell. There are many different spaciality stitches and all the
feet needed to do them. It even has the ability to drop the feed dogs
for free motion work. Oh, and it has an automatic needle threader
that works slick as a whistle. The only thing I don't like is that
the presser foot lever is plastic and is likely to be the first thing
that breaks since it gets used so often.

I'd like to get a needle plate that has the little hole since the
machine came with only the wide slot type. I'd also like a second
bobbin case just in case I ever have the need for it. I might have to
contact the company to find out how to order those things.

Can y'all tell I'm a little giddy over my new machine? So far all
I've done is test various stitches, but I also bought some fabric
yesterday to go with a Pebbles and Bam Bam print I already had. I'll
be working on a baby quilt before the end of the week. I wish I had
time to start on it today!
