What embroidery machine gives me the best for the least cost?
I have been sewing for many years and want to begin embroidery. I am confused about the huge difference in price among embroidery machines. I've looked at Pfaff, Viking, and Babylock. I would like to know if there's a machine that is satisfactory without paying the thousands of dollars these machines ask. I want to be able to use embroidery for all types of fabrics including denim. This will be a hobby for gift giving, not a profession. Thank you
I was in the same boat as you. I did some research and came up with 2 machines. Brother and Singer. Brother is sold at Wal-mart for under $500 and an additional card reader for $125. Singer is sold at several places but I saw it at Hancock Fabrics for under $900. Check for it at Hancock.com. You need a computer to use the embroidery function. It also comes w/ software to convert clipart to designs. I bought the Singer but I think I would have been just as happy with the Brother.
