I think it depends on your machine. My advice: don't buy a TON of colors until you figure out what your machine likes. And, give yourself time to figure it out!
Happy sewing
You shouldn't have a shredding problem if you use an embroidery needle either 75/11 or 80/12. The correct needle is the key to successful embroidery. I love Sulky 40 wt., also Robison Anton is good, or Madeira.
