DH thinks I have lost it. Do you?

Count me in as another embroidery nut - I have the Brother/White embroidery machine and I just LOVE it! I remember trying it out for the first time and my daughter walking in & saying "mommy, it's sewing by itself" -- all I could reply is "yeah, isn't it great!" (I do quite a bit of "regular" sewing too )

Happy to trade some designs (although you probably have everything I have -I bought a disney princess disk off ebay too!)

Let me know!
Kate

For an DISers out there that also sew ... I'm in search of a Cinderella costume pattern from a few years ago (I believe it was Simplicity). The pattern that Simplicity has right now just doesn't look right to me - its in the quick sew section and I like the look of the more difficult sew patterns they have (currently Snow White, Belle, Ariel, Aurora). I've already made the "difficult" version Snow White costume, but really wanted a Cindy too. (We have 2 MNSSHP's coming up!)

I don't have the sewing machine but I did just buy one of the great big LL Bean canvas bags to bring with me to the park (hanging off the back of the stroller- not me!) and I bought a mickey iron-on at stuck it on there.

Also, we are all equipped with plenty of Disney clothes (a lot of which were from Disney direct summer clearance sale) so we can wear Disney for all 8 days we're there

KC I sent you a PM! Kate 716, don't you find this a little addicting??

Ok, after reading this thread, I am obsessed!

Can you please give me the specific name of the machine? All 3 of my kids ADORE anything and everything with Disney characters, so this would be the biggest thing since...well I don't even know...for my family.

I am a FAIR sewer. I quilt, so that is my sewing skill set. I have never done anything like this or even made basic clothes...just quilting and mending. Do you really think I can use this machine?

Sounds great. Enjoy your crafting.

I have the Brother sewing/embroidery machine SE270D. It's available at Walmart for ~ $ 435. It practically runs itself. YOu load the thread via a cassette, it threads the needle for you. Once you atach the hoop to the machine and hit start all you have to do is change thread colors.

I have a Disney embroidery machine too! Brother SE270D that was my birthday/christmas gift last year. I LOVE IT! I have already started getting stuff done for our trip. I bought a CD of princess designs that are great! I did a Belle shirt for my DD yesterday- she is only 22 months old and could not wait to put it on!!

I wanted to add I got mine at Walmart on CLEARANCE for $400... you can also bid on ebay..

also the PED Basic card writer is a great addition. Then you can buy design CD's or designs online and write them to a card... buying cards is REALLY expensive (on ebay about $65 each for anywhere from 5-15 designs)... You can get PED on ebay for around $115... there are lots of free designs online too.

Happy embroidering!!

I bought the Amazing box II for around $200 and love it. I also have the Taste of Disney card and a monogramming program called Monogram Wizard Plus. Unfortunately the closest Brother dealer is about 30 miles away and is super high. He charges over $100 for all his cards. I wish I could find a place with a big selection so I could just browse............

 

[figmentfan1]

Look on ebay... they average around $70 for the cards. If you have the amazing box it would be cheaper for you to buy designs on CD (on ebay they are around $5-$8 for 10-200 designs) then write to card and put in your machine!
