I have a Brothers PE500 and I love it! 4x4 but it has been great for my first one. I have done quilt blocks, coasters, onesies, bibs, quilting and cup cozies. I love it! I will say after buying a CD of 35,000 patterns....I had to transfer to a thumb drive due to my new notebook doesn't have a DVD or CD drive on it! Seems the Windows 8.1 and newer computers have drop box and they don't have the drives anymore but I can still transfer the many FREE and paid for designs to my machine. Anyone else have a Brothers PE500?
