I am a newbie to the world of machine embroidery……I have been sewing for over 50 years and thought it would be fun to monogram napkins…nothing too grand…just a start…

Next week, I will be picking up a new to me Pfaff Creative Vision 5.0 and a Pfaff 7570….

I have always sewn with Pfaff machines and the two above will be joining even older Pfaff’s….1469,1471 and a QE 2044….all three are still in mint shape ….

Fingers crossed I can master embroidery!

Welcome from Texas! I know nothing about embroidery machines but have seen the beautiful work that can be produced on them. Hope to see some pictures from you soon. Lots of people on this board have embroidery machines & will be able to help you if you run into problems or have questions.

Welcome from SE Michigan! I love my embroidery machine. I haven't been doing so much lately as I have been investing most of my time as of late to quilting. Occasionally I can combine the two and do some great work.
You will find a great number of people to share your love of both machines and embroidery here. Again welcome aboard.

Welcome to the boards! I have a vintage Pfaff that was my go-to machine for costuming and garment construction, sadly it doesn't get used all that much anymore... but it definitely does not have embroidery options!

But what fun ahead of you with new tools and new passions Please share the good and bad with us.
