So I have figured out to connect all the things I want / need - embroidery needle, hoop, free motion, dual feed, etc. Now, I just have to stick one of my quilts that is ready to be quilted in there and get going. I'm a bit nervous because it sews quite differently (smoother and quieter) than my huskvarna ... we'll see how it goes! |
I have a pressure foot function on my brotherQC1000, if you clean your manual I’m sure your foot will do whatever you want:)
Congrats on your new machine!! Drooling!!!! |
“Check”your manual!!! Lol

Very nice machine.
|

Ohhh pretty! Hope you have lots of fun with your new toy!

This is the very machine I bought just before Thanksgiving. I LOVE using it, but it does take some getting used to for some of the features I have never had before....like the foot going up every time I pause, or using the cutter instead of my scissors. I LOVE the needle threader!!!! I must say, though, I am a little disappointed in the built-in embroidery stitches. Not much that I would want to use....wish I could get those out of the memory so I could save more of what I like. Also, it is a little more hassle than I anticipated to go back and forth from sewing to embroidery....changing out the emb unit and the foot every time. Wow, do I sound like an ungrateful complainer!! I feel so fortunate to have been able to get this beautiful machine! I have done some embroidery for sure and purchased many designs, but I am taking a Basic Embroidery Class this Saturday to learn, learn, learn.....tips, techniques, tricks, stabilizers, threads, etc. Congrats on the machine!
