RNK distributing has lots of tutorials, a stabilizing book that you can download, etc. The do alot with floriani and Jenny Haskins. There are tons of you tube videos out there including on Brother's website. I know that here our local sew n vac does alot of things with Brother and a lot of other sew n vac companies do too. I agree, check with where you bought it for free classes and just get in there and try. Start small and go for there. I do all the events that come to town, from Floriani to Anita Goodesigns to John Deer, most use some sort of Brother machines but no matter what the emb machine you benefit from it. I did and I have a top of line Viking. Good luck and feel free to ask questions.
