Ohhh I am sooooooooooo jealous LOL you have the machine I WANT,
but my husband refuses to buy it for me because that machine costs
more than my car LOL.

I am however SUPPOSE to be getting a new machine the Brother NV1500D
next month (I hope). I am excite to have a larger than 5x7 embroidery area
to stitch on.

I have tried MANY MANY different stabilizers of various kinds for various projects
and although it is expensive I find that Floriani is the BEST (in MY opinion) as I
have much less trouble with it.

I TRIED using the Solvvy in the various "weights" and I can NOT get my machine
to stitch FSL no matter how much or little of the stuff I use. I can not even get
regular medium weight tear away to work properly.

Yet I can use Floriani stabilizer, same fabric, same thread, same design and get
AWESOME results every time.

Except here lately my machine just does NOT want to stitch FSL and I have
NOT changed anything from before except I did try putting a NEW needle in
hoping that would "solve" the issue, but not to be the case.

Just be sure to use a couple of layers of the film type water soluble stabilizer. I usually use Florianni brand but there are others that are good as well. Good luck and have fun with your machine.
