Hello All..
Well I have been a champion lurker in here for a while reading about you all and now I have been persuaded to post a few things..I have been machine embroidering for about 2 years now. I own my own business as well. I dont know all the answers by any means but Im sure I might have an idea or two that might help.

You are welcome, maybe I can start off by asking what machine you have and what software you work with?

Welcome Betina! May I ask what your business involves? I'm starting up a biz myself, but haven't decided what direction I want to go. Probably only digitizing. Glad to have you aboard!

Hi Betina, I'm glad you are joining us.

Allie-oops, maybe the business question can go in the business forum so we don't get off on the wrong foot here. You'll get more answers that way too.

I have a couple of questions, but I will wait 'til later. :dave:

Betina,
Wow, I hope I grow up to be just like you. :o)
I have one machine and it is a cheap Brother I got
from Walmart.
Enjoy,

Susie..
No matter where you got it or what it costs as long as you like your machine ..you will always create beautiful projects. Three of my machines came from ebay. I borrowed the money to get one of them and then did an order for 30 polo shirts to pay for the loan. The older than dirt Kenmore.. hehehe I got it from a pawn shop 19 years ago. Sometimes I think I have too many machines!

Betina,
Yes, you are right. Although I would like other features my machine is a nice one. Hasn't failed me yet. :o)
