Hi Duckey,
Sorry to hear your mom has cancer. I been through that myself and doing good. All holistic. You will love the embroidery machine. I wish I used mine more. I do so much other sewing I just don't seam to get to it. The Baby things are hot hot hot. And some of the hospital shops will buy out right and some you will have to consign. Wishing you the best in you venture. We who sew are blessed. My husband has said yes there is sewing knitting and crochet all over the house but it has paid the rent in hard times... so I wish the same for you.
