I started my journey with a Brother PE150 but it had little cards and was limiting. Moved on to SE400 loved it because it could also sew. It was a move up from 150, but to get my designs I had to download to my computer and move over to the SE400. Now greedy me, wanted a bigger hoop and I’ve advanced to a Pathfinder (8x12) hoop and I’m in heaven. I added magnetic hoops and I enjoy Embroidery even more. May your days be filled with Good Sewing!!

I started with a used Brother PE900 for the same reasons. I had it for about 2 months, gave it to Goodwill, and then purchased a Tajima SAI. Not exactly big time but perfect for me to get started in my small studio. I'm in love with machine embroidery, thanks for sharing your expertise and tips! 😀

I have this exact one and the learning curve wasn't too bad

Excellent video. Can you make next time with an entry level multi-needle machine for beginners?

[BoonDocHale]

Nice job! I do think starting with a 6x10 inch hoop is better if you can. There are a lot of entry level machines with this size. Also be sure to buy from a local dealer with dependable service and repair and go there and try the machines out. There should be good support for classes too!

What kind of thread do you use in the bobbins? Is it the same as the top thread or the regular machine thread?

If you choose a design that’s on going long like a trim can you do it without using the hoop?
