I’ve been thinking about buying a new embroidery machine. I currently use a Brother PE770 (no longer in production). It’s been a great machine and I’ve literally made 100s of items using it. But I’m ready for something a little better or that better meets my needs.

If you have an embroidery machine, what one do you use? What features would be a must on a new machine? Do you have any recommendations? Or maybe a dream machine? Let me know in the comments.

Visited our daughter who’s expecting in August and made this Chicken Casserole. You would have thought I made prime rib with the way everyone carried on about how good it was. It’s a super easy recipe. You can switch out the veggies to use your favorites or whatever you have on hand.

Machine embroidery is such a fun and unique way to make greeting cards. And there are so many ways you can personalize your cards.

Don't want to embroider on cardstock? You can always embroider on fabric and then attach the embroidered design to the cardstock with a decorative stitch or glue.
