Still a member??? Of course, I still have so much to learn; but sometimes I can even post tips now!
I used my embroidery machine all of one time. Still can't figure it out or get the owner's manual. At some point when things calm down at work, I'm going to have to find the time for a one day class at the local dealer. I did purchase a hoop made for the machine, and it has a few built in stitches. I dont' want to buy a ped basic or anything like that until I figure out if it's really a hobby for me or not. At some point, it's possible I can get an upgrade. If I really fall in love with embroidery, I probably will.
I just wish I had the time to learn it now instead of it sitting in the box in my sewing room.....another someday project. :(
