Walmart today had embroidery machine at unbelievable price
Today I went to the nearby Walmart and ventured back to the fabric area. There was a display with 2 Brother Embroidery only machines and a sign saying CLEARANCE. They were reduced from $299 to $150. They only did a 4 x 4 inch design but the price was unbelievable. After I got home I checked the Walmart website and they weren't reduced there. If you are interested in one you might stop by Walmart and see if your store is running the same clearance.

I picked one of these up the other day at my Wal-Mart. Not a huge fan of Wal-Mart products but being a beginner I figured for the price of $150.00 it couldn't be beat, since some places are selling them for over $500.00. It gets mixed reviews-some people love it-some don't. There are a lot of great 4x4 that you can download from the Brother website-including the Ninja Turtles-my sons faves! Have not taken it out of the box yet as I have been ill but hope to get to try it out soon!

I already have an embroidery machine so I didn't need another. I could not believe the price. It may only do a 4" x 4" design but it is great way to see if you would want to spend more for a machine with more features and larger designs.

My Scandinavia 300 embroidery machine only has a 4"x4" (100mm x 100mm) and a Plus Hoop (100mm x 170mm) but I have done MANY embroideries on the small hoops in the past ten years. My avatar shows an embroidery on toilet tissue. Sure, it would be nice to have a larger hoop but you can find yourself satisfied with creating many items with the 4x4 hoop. I make my quilt labels also.

Sharon, what does your toilet tissue roll avartar say? I can't read it. I made a few myself at Christmas time. Here is one of mine I did. Yes, for the price at Walmart of the embroidery machine, a person could do a lot. It is like anything, all comes down to what a person wants to pay. I may check it out to have a second machine.
