I too have a Brother Innovis 4000D and love it. I use it for my quilting and embroidery. A great machine. I bought an inexpensive memory stick to download from the computer to my usb port on my machine. I did buy the upgrade to it, I think it makes it a 4500 D or something like that. Now I have not used that yet, but i like the larger hoops, and the contiuous embroidery for pillow cases, sheets, table cloths I think. I am glad this thread is started, I love this quilting forum, but I do embroidery too.
