is an incredible place to work with. OH WOW !!!. and it has the whole set up of stand and extra hoops and OH MY ! I have only bought machines from this place and I got a very, very, very good price on the whole package. It also comes with an additional software package for lettering.


I must say goodbye to my Innovis 2500D tho, but that is fine.

The web page of what the PR650 looks like is http://www.brother-usa.com/homese...

I can't believe I did it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You do realize that this is going to be just like a new baby, don't you? Your life is going to be very different for awhile and you will get NO sleep! Instead of changing diapers you will be changing everything else! The baby bottle is going to be in your hand in the form of a coffee cup. Everytime it makes a strange sound you are going to jump and run to see what is going on. Of course, you will be having a blast watching everything that comes off of it. You will be ready to fall over from lack of sleep before the new wears off of it! I sure do hope you enjoy this new baby as much as most of us would! Make sure you take some good pictures for all of us to see the beautiful things that you sew on it! Have fun!

I can certainly believe you did it! I had a demo of this machine at the quilt Expo in Chantilly Virginia. I almost signed the order on the spot. It's a great machine and a great package they're offering with the lettering software. I had to sleep on it and decided to hold out for a 16 needle commercial machine. It's not that much more money wise. Congrats on your purchase. I'll think of you everytime I have to do a color change on my single needle machine. I hate thread changes!!!!!

You do know that machine has to come with side effects. No Sleep. That is because you will be stitching until you drop and showing off all the beautiful things you are making. I'm so happy for you and Have Fun.

I am still in a state of WOO HOO and OMG !. Right now I have a few projects to finish up. You know how these things work..get alot of stuff do get done and something gets in the way of finishing on schedule....and I sure want all the committed stuff aout of the way before I get overwhelmed by the new machine. I figure the way the dealer was talking it would be sometime next week, AND I really, really need to change the room around so that it fits. So I am going to get my furniture moving music on and change the room around on Friday and Saturday and scare all the little dust bunnies outta their cracks and crevasses.

The deal I got with the machine has double hoops AND the hat hooping stuff AND the stand and the BES Embroidery Lettering Software. I have friends who are stepping forward to be my practice "victims"...this should be fun !

I will post pictures of the new monster when it is set up!... Thanks for all your encouragement...this is a big step for me.

So sorry, Mel, I'm tired and my mind is being silly. When I read that you have friends stepping forward to be your practice 'victims', I just had a vision of that machine having your friends sticking out from under the presser foot like those poor little embroidable bears people showed pictures of, hee hee hee! I am just so thrilled for you! Hugs, Marji

That is one awesome embroidery machine. I hope you have many hours of fun on it.

I love the way it can do hats and just about everything else from the sounds of it.

Good luck with it and I'm glad you got a good deal with it and of course you need great service personnel to help out.

Love and blessings Chris

My goodness - what a machine - how will you ever take it in for repairs? I shouldn't have said that - I am sorry - you will not have any - I am sure of it. I would like to go in that direction one day - so where do you sit or stand - when preparing it? I guess it is one - that you can't sew on, as well. I am trying to decide - what I would want and how I would want it set up - so anything that you can share - would be helpful. CONGRATULATIONS, I know you will be happy. *4U

This machine probably calls itself a cab if it needs to go anywhere, and it probably sets itself up too!

Whoah, that's a machine and a half! I am so very very happy for you, you'll be sewing up a storm with this one! That hue sewing field is going to be the cat's meow! I'm so glad for you (and maybe just a tiny bit green with envy, just a tinge, hee hee hee). Congratulations!!! Hugs, Marji
