The day after the Zoom Sewcial, so Tuesday, I unexpectedly received a message to let me know that I had a parcel coming from Babylock the next day. I wondered which of the two machines it might be, and felt unready for either.
It was my Euphoria, Euphy!
We unboxed her straight away, but then I had to leave her untouched while we waited for the Dishwasher repair man. I needed to wait until I could give her my undivided attention.
Towards the end of the alloted 2 hour slot, his van pulled up. He came, he saw, he fixed. Well, there was a bit more to it than that, he was here for an hour. But the important thing is, he fixed it. Thank goodness for that! A tiny little rubber "o" ring was the apparent cause of our woes. Such a small thing, such a big impact. To quote Firefly "It's a nothing part" "Yeah, it's a nothing part until you ain't got one")

She sews beautifully, just like her smaller sibling. She's huge, unlike her smaller sibling.
The needle threading is different to my Acclaim overlocker, which I hadn't expected, but it seems to work OK.
I've moved her upstairs on to my workbench, DH commented that she'd been moved upstairs quickly. I guess he wasn't sure if that was a sign of acceptance or rejection, lol.
