Wanted: Embroidery/Sewing Machine.

The Lady Lynn · May 14th, 2009, 05:06 AM

Hi all. I am having a fit trying to decide whether to get a Brother 4000D (Innov'is) or an Elna Exquisite. I have desired an Elna for years, but someone recently told me the Brother 4000D is much better. This will be for my private use, I sew infrequently... I have a standard Singer that has been a workhorse, but want to step into a tad bit of luxury.

Does anyone have any insight to give? And further, if you have either; please give me the details including stitch count and price.

Thank you for all our your knowledge and assistance.

Have you looked at the babylock elegante 2? I have a sewing and embroidery business and can do everything with one machine... It is for sale if you are interested

Can you tell me about the machine? Are there any defects? What's included with it... the number of stitches... you mentioned busness... what brand do you prefer and why...and lastly, can we do this via paypal?
