If you want to sell your embroidery machine, let me know.

I'd be interested in Pfaff 7570, 1475 or any other older Pfaff
model that does emrboidery.

Also, Bernina embroidery machines and Viking embroidery machines, Brother
I will consider.

If you have another model, please post it or send me a private email!

Thanks!

I have a Deco 600 (made by Bernina) which I have used about 3 times. It works fine,but I just can't get interested in it. I like to do freemotion and
just don't have time for this, so it just sits in my workroom unused. I paid
about $1000 for it. I have no idea what the going price is now for a used Deco 600 complete with instruction book. I've had it about 3 or 3-1/2 years. If I can't sell it for about 1/2 price, maybe I can persuade one of my daughters or grand-daughters to try using it. MariLynntx

Your willing to sell for 500? Let me check out that machine and I'll let you know. I recently put a 2124 on a trade in layaway with 25 bucks but, I may forfeit my $25 if I can do the same on your machine. Let me check it out and I will let you know:)

Mari,

I'm interested. Can you tell me how large of designs it can handle? Also, I have my eye on some Pfaff designs. Can I covert Pfaff onto Bernina?
Does it come with any decorative stitches?

Thanks!

HG... maybe somebody who has a Bernina (which I don't) will come along and verify this for us, but I believe you can only convert to ART format (the Bernina format) by using the ARTISTA software... which is not inexpensive... now hopefully I'm wrong... but I don't think so... I can use Embird to convert FROM art to other formats... but I think in order to convert TO ART you have to have ARTISTA... but maybe Mari has the original software that she's willing to include in the package???

just my two cents...
