Okay, it's between the Brother PE770 and the Janome 350. Which one can I get the bigger designs on??

Jerudy, I should probably get one locally b/c of classes. But everyone said they are both very user friendly so then I got to thinking that I'd be okay with it. But I don't know......

I have a Brother for class and have had Janome embroidery machine in the past. As to longevity of machines, I would bet on the Janome anytime. Currently, though my sewing/embroidery machine is the Babylock Ellisimo so am really unbiased.
Don't forget dealer support is very important.
Good luck and can't wait to see your first embroidery project!

I was talking to a friend the other day, and she told me she had purchased the Brother PE770 for her daughter! She said you could get the Brother at JoAnn's. It has a wide selection of designs, but about the bigger designs, I don't know.

I would go Brother, if I had to do again. I have the Janome 300E and have had a lot of bobbin trouble. I have heard there are many people with this same problem with Janomes. I'm shying away from Janome. Some love them, I'm not one of them. I do enjoy embroidering on items and personalizing them. It is a lot of fun!

I just have the Brother SE350, was lucky an found at Walmart on clearence for $189.00. Anyways, I am bad with computer stuff,but the Brother is SO easy to learn on. It came with a disk, to pop into your computer and watch,and that really helped me! I am sure both machines are nice!
