BeckyB that is really neat! Did you use a pattern for it or make it up yourself?

I would really only be using the EM for a few projects a year, not as a constant need, so if anyone can suggest a nice machine under $500, I'd love to hear about it.

I bought a babylock allure, it was a disappointment. I could not see the writing for the label that I wanted to make. I thought something was wrong with my EM machine. Nope nothing was wrong I just had to upgrade to see my work. What a bummer.

Hi, Does anyone have a viking Desginer Se. I have one purchased it years ago. Just bought another one on ebay. So I dont need to take mine back and forth to Florida from Michigan. How do you register a purchased used machine so that you can update it? If anyone has any info I would really appreciate it. Thanks so much!

I bought the Ellure Plus and upgraded the next day to the Ellageo Plus. Great machine but now I want the Elissimo2!

Thanks for your suggestions and help. I took the top off my Brother 2800D
and voila, there was a big thread knot between the tension disks. Running like new.

I am so excited! In a few mins. I'll be leaving to Naples to attend the Floriani Quilting & Embroidery Event! I took the day off just for it and can't wait to be a part of it! I'll let all of you know how it went.

Looking forward to your "review" of the program. It is on my bucket list for next year! Enjoy

We'll I'll begin by saying that it was worth it!! I learned so much of their software n stabilizers that I had many notes. I bought stabilizers n some thread but came home very satisfied. I must say that there was a quilt police there noting n inspecting the samples that were passed around, done by the instructor n she was rude about it but I payed her no mind. Sophie if u have it on ur bucket list n u can go, do it u won't b disappointed.
