Hello All!
my hubby surprised me with a singer futura xl420 on Black Friday! Still getting used to it as I previously embroidered on my Piaf 7570 (which still sews beautifully but only embroiders when it feels like it).

i have a few questions about needles and bobbins - just to start. I was told that I could only use singer needles and absolutely no prewound bobbins in it. From what I read online it seems that I can use schmetz or organ needles and prewound bobbins as long as they are 15j bobbins.

Doess as anyone have this machine or a similar one in the singer futura line that can help me figure this out?

also, I am searching for a preferably free cutesy baby's first Christmas design.

I have propably thousands of designs but can't seem to find one for my grandnephew.

thanks,
Lisa
