    Exclamation Which embroidery machine to buy???

    I am always wanting a larger embroidery surface for designs, so now I am looking at buying a new machine. I am debating on getting the Viking Designer Diamond Deluxe or the Brother Entrepreneur. I don't embroider for a business, just a hobby, and make quilts now and then. I don't sew clothes. Does anyone have either of these machines? Likes/dislikes? Thanks

    We have 3 ladies in my sewing group that have the diamonds and one has ruby. they all love their machines. You should be able to snag a good price on the Diamond Deluxe right now. Dealers want to clear them out because Viking is coming out with the Diamond Royal very soon.
