You could learn how to do 'thread calligraphy'. Takes some practice, but very easy after you learn it and it's beautiful. http://www.threadcalligraphy.com/ Good luck!

Thanks to all for all the suggestions. I can see I'm going to have to do some more research and should probably see some machines in action.

I'm with those who say get other alphabet fonts online and download them to your computer, then USB to the machine. Also to check and make sure your machine can't increase the size of your fonts.
Sorry, not familiar with your machine, but if you can get what you need without buying a new one, I'm for that.
