I sure hope I can learn and do great things with mine as you girls do! So far its been fun, I have my 6 year old Bernina in for service (first time letting it go) felt like I was letting my kid with strangers! thats why my husband talked me into buying the Embrodery machine, he said he wanted to keep his sanity! but I assured him, it is not contagious!

One good site is http://www.embroiderydk.com and http://www.designsbysick.com . I also LOVE The designs at http://www.emblibrary.com and http://www.bunnycup.com .
I also went through Metro threads and ordered all the mini-spools so I would have plenty of colors of thread to use. They are by far the cheapest thread I've found and it is good quality for embroidery.

My cousin has a Brother Innovis 4500D Duetto. She is having trouble with the embroidery work bunching up. She is using good fabric and some stabilizer and a hoop. Anyone have expertise in this?

I had that problem last week. While playing around with the dog feeders ( A No No), I moved the bobbin holder inside the machine, and so it was not aligned correctly. Make sure the bobbin holder is flushed with the rest of the mechanism. Hope you find the answer soon.
