Not sure if your machine would behave the same way my Bernina does but I just open the zipped designs into the Benina program and they open unzipped and I can then save them unzipped to the flash drive or move them to my machine.

Anything that isn't breathing. I have 2 machines and I keep them going (Brother inovis4500 and a viking designer1) all the time. Once you get started it is very addicting. It opens up a whole new world to you.

I have done burp cloths, quilt squares, t-shirts, jackets, quilt labels. Like Janet M. said above, anything that doesn't run away!

I embroider on my quilt blocks and make quilts with them. Right now I have a couple of blocks embroidered to make a quilt I am calling a Quilters Quilt... it will have a lot of sayings on it pertaining to quilting and sewing and some images of sewing things like buttons, measuring tapes, etc... The material I will be using will have sewing items on it... like pins, spools of threads, etc... Hope to be able to finish it some day... it's in the works right now and that's what counts.. Have fun with you new machine.. :)

For Christmas, Each of my 17 grandchildren will get a fleece blankie embroidered with their name and something cool they like: footballs, horses, dragons, cars, fairies, monkeys.. 10 down, 7 to finish up. I bought some fleece for the 1st few, then found throws at Big Lots and Family Dollar store for less than I can buy fabric.

I embroider towels, and make pillowcases with a decorative letter, add elegant lace and give as wedding presents. I just smocked my first dress for my granddaughter.
