I have the babylock elegante, ellisimo and the brother PR620 and the little pooh that I can travel with. I love to do free standing lace, quilts, monograms and just about anything that can be done with the machines. I have the babylock palette version 8 software. I have been going to learn to digitize since 1996, but it is just so easy to purchase the designs. I mostly use the software to do Monograms with and to put designs together to make a design. I also use it to change the colors to get an idea of what it will look like before I stitch it out. It is so much fun, but some times when things go wrong it is such a headache.
