Hi friends,
This will be my last post on embroidery machines!
I mentioned that I want embroidery only. You have all given me great ideas on both.
I'm wanting the most versatile of the 2 and I can't tell which one that is.
I would like one that isn't limited to really small designs.
So........ which one can you get larger hoops for?? And what would be the sizes??
I'm done........HONEST !!
Thanks for all your help :)
Sue

In optional accessories for both machines hoop sizes are listed, janome - giga hoop 9.1 in. x 7.9 in.
brother - extra large 12x5 inches.

Ok Susan, which one have you decided on????

Jerudy, Amazon has the Brother for a decent price, even if you add up the extras so I'm leaning towards that one.
What do you think?? :)

Well, I have to say the PE 780 because I have one on layaway at my LQS. The reason I went with the 780 instead of the 770, is they were offering a special on the 780 and for a few $$ more you get a thread set and a few other extras, plus they included some classes with it. They said the only difference between the two was the Disney patterens are included on the 780. Although I chose it because of the classes, you may find a Minnie or Goofy on my shirt collar at one of the quilt shows.
