AYRT Look into getting a Stellaire or similar if you want to stick with a flatbed. But a mutineedle is the best. And if you get Mighty Hoops or similar, knits are no problem.

For small designs, you need to use a smaller needle. And make sure you’re using a design created by someone who knows what they’re doing. Instead of buying off Etsy, reach out to digitizers you know and trust and request a custom design. It’s worth it!

drooling; a multineedle is our next step up once we finallly decide we need to trade up to the next best.

you're absolutely right, though. we digitize ourselves so we can test and fiddle without wasting fabric and thread. A trusted digitizer is worth their weight in gold! I need to solicit one who can play backup when we don't have the time to do it ourselves.

I didn’t take up machine embroidery until I left England for the US so I’m not sure if this works the same over there. But I financed my multineedle through the dealer. I still owe like $5000 on it.

I plan to get another but I’m going with a Bai or Ricoma even though I’ll have to buy different mighty hoops. It will still work out cheaper. I’m already doing all the maintenance myself on my Brother PR1055X and I know from looking into this that I’ll be fine with doing upkeep on a Bai or Ricoma, too.

What software do you use? I’m an Embrilliance user and just got Stitch Artist 2 and 3 (I’ve had 1 since I bought my original 360x360 flatbed.

We're stuck with 5Ds through Husquevarna - great brand, mediocre software. It does what you want it to do if you're willing to jump through the hoops to learn its idiosyncracies. For at least 3/4 of what we do, it works fine, but that last 1/4 is a learning curve of frustrating proportions.

Fortunately, we live in a smallish city that has a dedicated indie shop for both machine quilting and embroidery, so if we decide to upgrade, they have our backs and can take trade-ins even if the software is no longer supported. And a repair staff on site, so win-win?
