If you can find out the model number the Elna website should
be able to help you find out the design format for the machine.
I have seen where some machine use the JEF, others use the
EXP. Hard to determine which one hers will take without knowing
more about her machine.

I have a friend who owns an Elna sew/emb. combo machine and I believe she said its a 2006 but she doesn't have the manual. She l ives on a fixed income (elderly) and I'd like to help her with the embroidery part but I don't know what format Elna uses, i.e. my babylock uses .pes Any help would be appreciated.

If your looking for large rolls of topping, backing and such go to hirsch intl. I used to work for them. Im not promoting them coz their cust serv is kinda sucky, but theiris solid. They are in hauppauge, ny ( long island). They sell machine parts, needles, threads, everythingyou might need for emb. Scissors, clippers, oil ect. Good luch to all.their product is tajima machines, but they sell all the other things that we need.

Now that you have had this for a couple months, how do you like it? I'm due for my annual bonus at work, so am looking at this machine next weekend. What did you end up paying for it?

Just found out the tajima may have some problems. What do you all think of the pc 770?

i dropped my babylock ellure off for servicing yesterday...got the call today. total cost for servicing will be 188-. this includes a new rotary hook as well as cleaning/servicing. In a way, i can't complain...the LAST time i had this machine in for servicing was in 2004. The machine dates from 1999...
