Re: Embroidery services as home-based business

I will chime in also with this statement. I bought a Toyota 850. It was used & I got the same warranty as new. Many, MANY "home" sewing machines that "embroider" are the SAME PRICE as a used commercial machine. At the end of the day, if you don't make the $$ you thought you would, you still have an awesome embroidery machine. And changing thread on a home sewing/embroidery machine is a huge PITA - don't know for sure, but my Toyota runs really well @ 680 to 740 stitches - I don't think a "home" machine can do that?
I have a regular full time job & right now @ Christmas time, I have "work" coming in. This is by word of mouth ONLY. No advertising. I am talking easy gravy "jobs". LIke putting names on stockings & embroidering & making hooded towels. Yes, it's amature stuff. But I figure I'm starting somewhere & it's $$$ I otherwise would not have made.
I'm happy & that's what matters. And since I sew & quilt, it was something I wanted anyway. I just didn't NEED antoher sewing machine........
Good Luck! I'd like to see where you go with it
