Would like to purchase a machine, that does embroider.
but will not use it much and cannot afford the ones that I have seen online, any suggestion? I would appreciate any advice,

Welcome! I'm looking for the same thing!!!!!!!!

I have a brother SE350 that is a combination machine I love it If you go one up they will hook up to your computer less than $500.00 Mine was $389.00 From Amazon

Look locally for a used machine.

Many sewing centers & dealers take trade-ins for updating customers. They also repair machines. Try calling a few in your area & ask if they have one. & Tell them your interested in a previously-loved machine.

One of the best buys for the Money is a Janome 300E, if you can find one, and if not a 350.
