home embroidery machine
NexTag is a shopping comparison site and when I typed in home embroidery machine I got fifty two results with a Brother Embroidery Machine with USB port as the featured first result for $500. You can buy the Euro Pro Shark embroidery machine for two hundred dollars and get sixty six built in patterns, eight button hole styles and a digital numerical display, darning plate, free motion monogramming and a foot pedal.
The Singer Futura series of home embroidery machines combines a sewing machine and embroidery functions for the ultimate performance. With your computer, USB port and included software the possibilities are endless for your creativity. You have one hundred stitches, 3 bright LED lights, six fully automatic button holes, eleven frequent use stitch buttons, programmable needle up and needle down commands. For embroidery you get AutoPunch software that automatically converts graphic files to a format the Futura can stitch out. The system reads all of the popular home embroidery formats available on the free and third party markets. You can manipulate the designs, change sizes and layers with the design browser, 3D Realistic View and Print.
Two embroidery hoops are included (Large 4.5” x 6.75”, Small 3.125” x 4.75”) for most types of apparel embroidery. About the only jobs these two hoops will not work with are sweatshirt fronts and jacket backs. Singer has been a trusted name for sewing since 1851 and sells more machines than all of its competitors combined. Additional software is available from Singer for expansion and it is compatible with third party software like Data 7.0, Embroidery Office and Stitch Era. At a little less than a thousand dollars you can start a custom embroidery business in your home.
