Congrats on your new emb. machine.
It CAN get addicting, but have fun with it.
You will need a variety of different stabilizers to use, embroidery thread,
and various needle types & sizes.
A good place to find what style needle & stabilizer to use on the different
types of fabrics I recommend going to RNK/Floriani website to get the
guide they have to help with setting up the correct combinations.
Quick Reference Guide this guide is quite useful for helping with
matching the correct stabilizer to the fabric you plan to stitch on.
Stabilizer workbook this is helpful for learning about the different
kinds of stabilizer.
I personally use both these guides to help me even after 6-7 years of
embroidering.
Most important is just have FUN.

After everyone leaves tonight I plan on watching a YouTube video about the machine. Merry Christmas!!
