I have had probably the most fun I have ever had. I have the Brother PE 780D. AWESOME Machine with little fuss. Remember, I knew NOTHING about machine embroidery before my mom basically......... MADE ME borrow her machine and try it out.
Since June............after after only about a 2 hour "HOW TO" course she gave me on how to use this thing........ I have been off and running. I am not one to really think outside the box.......... which probably explains why I am a poor, financially challenged crafter. But this has totally opened me up in ways I never imagines. I have ZERO fear of this machine or what it can do. I keep going, trying new designs, even creating my own simple designs with an affordable Sew What Pro. This program has no big frills and the downside? You can't digitize. BUT, you can do anything else pretty much, alter designs, resize designs, create your own. It is perfect!
What really surprised me about this new business aspect of my plethora of crafting fun. I literally started making money from co-workers immediately. This was surprising to me...... being so profitable so quickly. There is a real demand for personalized, fun, and pretty designs. I had no idea. Call me a bit slow.........
So due to all this activity, I have moved into our only office/guest bedroom. Yep, I got rid of the bed and moved in. It is so nice having room to work.......
So basically, I would highly recommend the Brother PE 700 or above. It's easy in every way. Also Sew What Pro is the perfect program for a hobbyist, not necessarily a pro shop. Check my facebook page for current activity. Also my website for current other areas I work in.
