Well, I have one that is just about obsolete. It is a Brother PE150. It will only embroidery in the small hoop. I would love to have a larger one, but I bet I haven't used this one 10 hours in the past 10 years.

I have a Brother ULT2002D and a Duetta. I embroider centers for baby quilts that go to the hospital NICU units and other baby quilts. Other than that I made a Baltimore Album quilt using all embroidered squares. I also use them to make my labels for the quilts.

I am so glad to see some embroidery people on this forum. I have a Janome 350E and Janome MB4. Love them both. I use alot of designs from WWW.embroidables.com and also Anita Goodesign (found at LQS). My LQS gives unlimited classes and lessons for any machine or software you purchase from them. I also have Janomes customize and digitizer programs and also EQ6 (which I haven't used much). Love to see some others work. I will post a picture of a quilt I did using coloring book pages from Toy Story -the movie.

I can't see very well can't find a good pair of my glasses. I have a 350 janome embroidery machine that I love. I find many free designs all over the net and basically add them. the only thing that is difficult is finding a 2 kg flash drive for it most flash drives are 4 mgs or kgs or whatever. It is very easy to use but another drawback is changing threads. most machines are way to expensive for my pocket book but this is great for the money.

I have a Babylock Ellageo. I haven't used the embroidery nearly as much as I thought I would. But that has to do with losing my job to outsourcing and not being able to find another. This embroidery setup is complicated and the few designs I've tried were too dense for the fabrics.
I'll stick with just quilting. I'm thinking of selling this machine and buying a good general purpose sewing machine.
