New Brother V Series Dreamweaver machine
 
This machine looks so awesome, 11" throat! I am wondering if anyone is getting one. I so want one, but haven't given in yet.

I already own the Bernina 830, but this looks like a sweet machine.

sounds great but I have the Designer SE and Diamond-no more toys for me.and a babylock quilter's choice pro.

I wonder what it's going to cost... I've already got a Brother embroidery machine that collects dust... I think my embroidering days have ended. I should trade it in and put it towards something else maybe....

I was quoted $3199.00 plus tax. Not too bad. do you think it oculd be put on a frame if you wanted to do frame quilting?

I was expecting them to be more expensive based on the Quattro's cost. Was that price for the 3 in 1 Dreamweaver. They all look so "dreamy"!!

Mp, that price was for the Sew/Quilting machine. The 3 in 1 was 4999.00 intor special, going up to 7999.00 after the intor special goes off. Ouch! Much more of an expense. They do look awesome. I am so tempted.

Don't know that I would be able to acquire the machine, but just went to the Brother web site to check it out and the video is really, really well done. One of the best advertising concepts I have seen in a long time.

Wolph do you not LOVE that Quilter's Pro? I have one and I bless the designer who put so much thought into the useability of the machine. I am doing FMQ right now using a crewlwork bedspread that I bordered and sandwiched. The linen is slippery stuff but the Quilter's Pro is handling it like a dream!

I am not familiar with that machine but my 3 machines are all brothers and I love them. So I bet I'd love this newest one too.

I stopped in at my local sewing machine dealer yesterday to pick up some supplies and while talking with the owner, I asked her about the brother v series. She stated she just returned from a demo offered by brother and the series would not be available until October. I asked about the price and she stated the sewing/embroidery combo will sell for $6450.00!!!!! Needless to say, I didn't ask the price of just the sewing machine or embroidery machine.

I am a newbie. I only own a sewing machine but I want to start embroidering. I want to do my children's high school football and swim team bags and jackets with their emblem and names for starters.

What machine would you all recommend ?
