Or advice on other brands and models which can do big embroidery monograms and is good for FMQ? I thought of Bernina but it's way beyond my budget!
it depends on what you mean by Small monograms or big monograms. The largest monogram on my Janome MC200e, which is Janomes entry level machine, are about 3" tall when done at their largest setting. my MC350e does them a little larger than that. You can use software to enlarge things or buy larger fonts, but I've found that the monograms in my machines are plenty big enough, even for bath towels and such.
