Hi, any suggestions on a good Embroidery Machine for a beginner? I have never used one before.
Not to expensive. I may ask for one for Christmas.

I just got the Bernette 340 - the deco and love it. My friends at the LQS have it too and they love it. It was the one with what you need without going exorbitant in price.

I have the Brother Duetta, easy to use and love it. Do you have a budget in mind

Thanks - I would like to keep it pretty low - 5 or 6 hundred is the most I could spend.
