Dolphyngyrl, not embroidery, just sewing. I wasn't expecting to buy the floor model so I hadn't prepared at all for how many stitches would be on it already. I did ask before buying it and she showed me where that info is in the menu system. When I saw half a million stitches I was pretty startled and said that was too many. She assured me that she can have a busy sewing weekend and put as many as 200,000 on her machine. However, I'm pretty sure her machine was an embroidery model so not really apples to apples.
I have done the math now with stitches per inch, etc. and it isn't as bad as I thought. I mean when you hear half a million stitches doesn't that just sound like a HUGE amount of use? The machine is purring along and I'm smiling a lot so I think it is all working out okay.
