Jane,
Check on ebay or etsy and see if you can find the baby loc or brother "dongle". I couldn't tell if you'd already purchased that or not, if not try either of those. I bet you'll find it for less! Do you have software to look at & make changes to your embroidery designs? If so which one? My Mom is 81 too. She's just gotten a embroidery/sewing machine about a year ago. (i do her embroidery!) Too much of a learning curve for her so good for you for going there! :thumbup: I use memory sticks almost exclusively. The cards are expensive to purchase so i buy my designs online and use memory sticks. Really easy. :wink: See the add below? They have the best prices, i'm on their mailing list so i get all the sales and they have Great sales! AND they are well digitized. I don't know how many designs i've bought that weren't well digitized and therefore not useable. I'd start w/these guys. They haven't let me down once and that's saying alot!
