Need thoughts and opinions. I have the Brother SE270D Combo and the Brother 700II Embroidery only. I have the 270D set up for regular sewing but also have a new Brother 6000i so I'm considering selling my 270D and using those funds as down payment on a combo or embroidery only machine that has larger than a 5x7 stitching area. BUT, in researching, I'm finding that there is a steep increase in price. I mean like 3 to 4x in price. Anyone have recommendation of one they own that stitches larger than 5x7? Also I want to do backpacks and larger tote bags that are a pain or I can't do with my 700II.
I watch the videos of the new Brother V series but I'm thinking they will be priced in the range of a mid sized car!!!!!
