Have fun if you purchase this machine.

Two more puppies were dumped at my place yesterday. It's really hard to get anything done with 8 dogs wanting attention. I have very little hope of finding another home for these two new ones. The shelter has an outbreak of parvo and isn't taking any puppies now.

I am 62 and bought a Bernina 830 for a retirement gift to myself. I figure it is the last sewing machine I will purchase!! I will admit it can be picky. If there is thread somewhere it shouldn't be you will have to clean it out before rethreading.I just have to keep reminding myself it is a highend computer and works like any other computer

I would like to know how many people have emb. machines, what kind and how much you really use them. Of course I fell iin love with the Bernina 830 but since it is $10,000 and I am 65 yr old, I am wondering how much I would use it to make the investment worthwhile. Several ladies (not young) have multiple emb machines plus sewing machines. What appreciate your input. thanks.

Good Morning.........All those unanswered questions is why I have not purchased this machine. .....I live in Georgia and shops that sell this machine in the area I live in is few and far between........Hopefully one day it will be available nearby. Until then, I'll just keep looking and wishing.
Happy Quilting.

I bought both of my machines on ebay. Ebay stands behind you if you are unhaappy with anything you purchase. Depending on the machine, it usually takes a repair shop with someone that is trained to do repair and up-keep on machines. Most embroidery machines will do the lables for quilts. You do have to have the software for the lables or whatever you want to embroidery. My Brother does the lables without sofware, it is already built in.

I just bought a Janome MC300E through Craigslist. I paid $300 and got all the hoops and accessories with it. I have never had any kind of machine like this and already am in love with it. Presently, learning and making my grandkids names and items they like onto on quilt! i cant stay away from it long lol :)

I have a Brother Innovis 4500D which is a big Disney then I have a small Brother 180 Disney and then a Babylock .
I love all of them.
The small Disney was one of the first Disney machines and I use it for labels for my quilts. and the big Disney is in my cabinet and I ended up getting the Babylock when my Bernina 850E was in the shop again.
It was really funny one Christmas I had all of them going at the same time embroidering the borders on sheets and cases.
But for the price range I would go with the Babylock it is in the middle price range. It also does a beautiful job.
Hope this is a help.
