I usually do not use one and just thread the machine with each color lined up. Fairly new to embroidery and recently was gifted a MC9000. Thank you for any suggestions.

You lucky girl......I think, more toys, the better......I wouldn,t sell....I would use what I have and be happy I have it....but of course, its what I would do....Good luck and happy stitching

I embroidered loralie girls they are 5x7 now I want to make a wall hanging out of them I did think about framing them in a different color of fabric , I even thought about making it wonky but don't know how to go about that as of yet. These gals are really cute

I'm planning the same thing! For a beloved neighbor of mine. She's a retired hair stylist and has a very unique sense of style. I'm going to use designs from several collections that I got with one of my machines, including the Wild Cat Women and Salon. There is a line of Loralie fabrics, I'll be using some for my wall hanging. I love Loralie designs!

I would keep it for awhile, as you get more into embrodiery you may find you will use it, I have a 9500 and just change the thread out one spool at a time. That maybe something for me to consider sometime.

I have a stand for my Ruby Deluxe and love it. It saves time when I change thread. Wasn't sure if I would like it, but I do. Wonder why I waited so long to get it.

I have an 11,000 SE Janome that I love, love ,love. I've made everything from whole quilts to small quilt labels. I just got it back from its yearly clean and lube visit. Never makes a misstep.

My plan is to use this pattern, http://www.maryquilts.com/twisted-happy-block-quilt/
adapting it for rectangles instead of squares. I've seen a picture of a Loralie quilt done this way. My LQS has some really cool Loralie fabrics that go with the embroidery designs.
