I would like something with a little larger hoop area than 4 x 4. I have found the Brother HE-240 that fits this bill. I have also found the Singer Futura 9960 but can't determine if this is a sewing embroidery combination. Does anyone know if it is or not? Any other suggestions?
Thank you for your input.
I purchased a Baby Lock Ellure for a bit less than $500 on ebay. It worked great. Then I bought an Ellure Plus for a $1,000 and sold the first one. They do a 5 x 7 inch field.
