Say hello to my new baby! (Patreon)

Well getting a new machine was NOT on my bingo card today 😳 say hello to my new machine, a husqvarna viking epic 2!
My viking topaz 50 gave me nothing but issues since i got it - tension problems, problems with it shredding every type of thread i gave it, etc. I heard that the this is a somewhat common issue with the topaz and since I'm a full time seamstress, it made my life more stressful than it should. Now apparently the models above the topaz dont have the same issues. I was looking into the sapphire 85, but a friend recommended to look into epic 2s since the epic 3 just came out and they'll be phased out.
I happened to call my dealer today and ask and they had an open box one that i got a crazy good deal on! So, fingers crossed that i dont struggle with this machine 🤣
