Today I went to Geelong, and this came back home with me:
It is a Janome Memory Craft 6500P. I've never owned a computerised machine before. I read lots of online reviews of this model before I went to look at it. This one was originally purchased in May 2010, but sadly its owner's sight has deteriorated to the point where she can't sew, and in fact has had to go into care. Her daughter was selling the machine. I took a few bits of fabric and some thread with me to test its functions, like buttonholes, some fancy stitches, and sewing binding on a quilt (those off-cuts from my challenge were handy for that). The machine did everything beautifully, and very quietly! A couple of the feet are missing, but are easy to replace.
It is very solid, so I won't be moving it around once I get it set up in my sewing room!
