Ah! Good thought! that is one of the main differences I have noticed between teh 300 and the 350. the 300 does not have a USB.

I just ordered the new Brother 500 from Wal-Mart that costs 300. I know it is a small hoop 4 x 4---but what I really want to use it for is quilt labels. I struggle all the time making them and donated 80 quilts last year to various charities. This is what I can afford for now and I will be excited to learn to use it and grateful I found something in my budget. I will stitch out the writing on white and then border it with complimentary fabric from the front.
I see their free designs are in a PES format. I do not have that on my computer but can look for a free download. I do not want to have to purchase anything else right now to get started. I saw a free flag on the site that would be perfect for Quits Of Valor.

Thanks for all the input! DH did suffer a little "sticker shock" when we went to the shop to test drive but then I showed him all of the "expert" advice I got on this thread. You all repeated many of the pointers the shop owner had mentioned, and since you had no financial gain from your recomendations he listened! Janome 350 here we come!
