embroidery machines
#22
My embroidery machines only do embroidery. I like that because once you set it up, choose your design and hoop your project it runs itself until the project is done unless you have to change thread color. You can be working on a sewing or quilting project while the embroidery machihe does it's thing. Just another way to multitask.

What do and don't you like about your machine?

p.s. I love my PE770 machine, but do have a standard Janome also.

The negative part is that the screen is small and only shows black and white. It is not very clear, but I have a program on my computer, so I can view it better there. I knew that before I bought the PE770, but for the price I am really happy. This one is not available in the local shop, but I bought it online. I had a Brother machine for 45 years (not embroidery)and finally had to let go. Now I have a standard Janome (mechanical) and love that one too.

OK So we went to the quilt shop 1 1/2 hrs away to look at the brother. they didn't have the 770 they sold it last week, ahhh. but the lady there showed me a designer I, that was traded in, It does so much more than my Viking Iris, and DH says it is worth the extra to get the Designer, sooo I'm getting a new to me machine soon.
