Do watch that video, it will show you some of the many extras you will need to buy to do machine embroidery, also shows how complicated it is (for some) to ready the design into place to stitch it out. Imagine doing this on a huge quilt, the demo was only a tiny size in comparison, then you have to move the quilt to start joining the next section. You would need a machine with at least a 5x7 hoop - larger is better - but you may not want to spend the $$ for a bigger machine, which also has a great learning curve. I have 2 embroidery machines so I know the expenses involved. You need to ask yourself if you are keen enough to do more embroidery or just a few small quilts. Also buying CDs with a few designs, you may only like a few on each disc, although they're not expensive, and this lady has several available.
