Beginning Embroidery Brother PE 780D



Beginning Embroidery Brother PE 780D
My Experience thus far........

In case you may have missed my Facebook page announcement, I am about 10 weeks in on my new adventure doing machine embroidery.   I never really had interest myself, or really understood what it was.....  it looked so complicated.

So, my mom kinda pushed me to bring this spare machine home and just try it......see if I liked it.  After a quick crash course on how to use it........  I was off and running.  Literally, this machine is so easy to use and really works hard.

I have been amazed at the quality of designs it turns out.  My mom started with the Brother PE 780D with the Disney package.  And yes, the Disney embroidery images are high quality and nobody would know you didn't buy these at an actual Disney store or park.

There are dozens of sites where you can purchase designs, including Etsy.  Many of the sites also have free designs.

If anyone is easily overwhelmed by a sewing machine, surprisingly you may find this easier.  Now, with that said, there are just a few little trouble shooters I was advised to know.  So if you are sewing along and it starts to choke and sputter I have discovered the fix-its are pretty easy and routine. Which I'll discuss in another post soon.

Believe it or not if your not a.............crafty type.......but your great with color and design this is the hobby for you.  One of the funnest things I have found is the colors.........  You could literally make the same embroidery design a dozen times and make each one entirely different with colors.

I also.......seeing that I am frugal, did a lot of  snooping around for an embroidery program.  I could not afford a professional program for several hundred dollars, which is fantastic for those who are looking to do speciality and maybe business custom items.   But I ended up finding the right software for my needs SewWhat-Pro for $65, this is lifetime not yearly.  Easy and fast download and tools are easy to use and learn by way of YouTube.

And NO!  You don't need a huge work area to have one of these fun machines.  I literally have a room the size of some people's closets, and it suits my needs fine right now.   Now, figure this machine cost a little extra w/Disney, if you get it without you will be maybe under $700.  Brother has other models as well. I encourage you to try anyone of them and I'm sure you'll be pleased.
