I love my new Baby Lock Ellageo Plus. I originally bought the Ellure Plus but quickly upgraded. Decided I needed more!

snipforfun, that's exactly how i felt. I loved the Ellure Plus but needed more in resizing and such so I got the Babylock Spirit and what a fabulous machine!

I bought the same machine and I have not used it yet. actually I wish I had never bought it because I hate the way it threads. Usually takes me rethreading it several times before I get it right. Never had this problem before and I have been sewing most of my life. When I do sew with it the tension is always off. Buy cheap, get cheap is what my Dad used to say and it's true. I have a Melco EP1 embroidery machine and it is a dream.

To the responses of my question, I now have come to the conclusion of a 5 x 7 field. But again I think I had better go check out some of the models and see what I can afford. Thanks for the input.

Has anyone tried/used the hot fix crystals on any FSL items?
Curious because I just got a setting tool and some crystals and
wanted to see if anyone has use them on lace yet or not.
I have some lace made up that I am going to give it a try to see
how well they look and work.
Stay tuned for pictures (regardless of HOW they come out).

Grandma Jeanne, I have 2 embroidery machines, both Brothers. One is a combo machine with 4x4 stitch area and the other is embroidery only with 5x7 stitch area. I, too, recommend going ahead and getting one with a 5x7 stitch area. Brother and Babylock are good machines. I bought both of mine from a dealer and they were refurbished machines...like new with new warranty. Have had NO problems with them (except user error LOL).
Also, there are a couple of Brother 770s listed over on SewItsForSale site. Very reasonable!!

I, too, love EL as well as Embroidery Designs. Always stitches out great. Embroidery Designs has lots of free designs and you can get 3 per week. They have great sales and if you buy, you get to choose more free designs. Just my kind of deal!!
