Why buy an embroidery machine for labels? Unless you are going to embroider more. If money is tight you may want to wait.
Labels are extremely easy to make if you have a copier/scanner and a computer with Word or something similar. I can copy a picture or part of the fabric pattern and combine it with print. I design and print my labels using my computer all the time and the results are very creatively pleasing.
