Why is it that everytime Jean mentions my name, I tend to be on the forum that day?...it's like we're connected somehow LOL.

Hi racer nana, it just so happens that I am a Babylock dealer and can tell you exactly how much the cost of a BBL Crown Jewel will cost you. As well, Mason's Sewing in Richmond BC are not only the Canadian distributors for BabyLock but also Canadian distributors for Handiquilter . BBL Crown Jewel is manufactured by Handiquilter and isthe identical machine to the Handiquilter Avante. The only difference are the frames. You can contact Mason's seeing as you are all in BC together.

You can also ask your Babylock dealer for this information.
