Bare Minimum to Get Started
Hi all. I wonder what the bare minimum is in an embroidery machine? I am NOT interested in embroidery. But, I do like to put my fancy initials on the back pockets of jeans I make. Currently I am laboriously doing this by machine using the stretch stitch. It is impossible to get each pocket exactly the same but I get close. It is funny how many folks I know stare at my backside until they figure out why pockets look familiar to them.
Yes, I know, for only that small use I should probably simply pay a friend with an embroidery machine to do this for me.... BUT.... my machine is a Husqvarna 400, quite old, in failing health and I think due for replacement. If I could digitize my intitials and set the machine to do them in a nicer stitch than I'm using and have each come out exactly the same, well that might make an embroidery machine worth considering. And you know what will happen, build it and they will come, I'll fall in love with embroidery.
Any ideas? Suggestions?
