I have the cheap $300 Brother. Bought it on Amazon. Love this little embroidery only machine. Only does a 4 in design but that enough for me. Downloaded lots of red work designs. Drawback is it uses a card and you will need the Ped Basic to do anything with it. Thats almost $100.
But its a great beginner machine. I only make quilt blocks with it, 6 in size blocks. Made a cute teddy bear redwork baby quilt with it. My camera is not communicating with my computer so cant post a picture. Used nine patch blocks as alternate blocks.
