At least on other friend also uses the in her Babylock Ellisimo That is spelled wrong too any way the big top of the embroidery machine Babylock line. Joyce in OK

Yes, I have. I did however place some inexpensive non woven interfacing (a tablecloth would do) to make sure the colors did not bleed onto my finished item. They worked just fine. I did see no signs of bleeding but better safe than sorry.

My machine broke down before I could use them. But if you google that question I'm pretty sure someone out there has used it. Good luck.

I haven't had any issues with them. I use them to print labels for wedding events. I put wedding pictures on them and print them on laser printer.

I am not sure but it goes on in a pretty typical way, so if your machine has a pretty typical needle "set up" I think it will be fine. It interchanges easily on my machine (not an embroidery machine).

Julie, do you know the ballpark cost of the PE-780D? I'm doing my research on embroidery machines before I make a decision. There's not too many distributors in my area so I wanted to make sure I get a good price.

I usually embroider on them, but I did actually do fabric painting on one to see how it worked, and it seemed to work pretty well. I always wash and iron them first before doing anything with them.

I have the Juki MO-654 and I love it! I do have some experience with sewing and I think this machine is very easy to use. I've only had it a few months but it's already proved itself with many sweater coats and armwarmers. =)

They have a Designio in the series that does embroidery, however, this one is not capable of embroidery except for a very basic monogram font. If you were wanting embroidery, I would select another machine. Hope this helps :)

I have not tried Gold. But as for the machine itself, it has taken me 3 months to get it to work "somewhat". First, the Y stepper was jammed. I had to take it apart and use duct tape to get the iron filings out of the stepper motor armature. Then the mirrors had to be aligned, and I am still working on that. The MoshiDraw software is very problematic, it hangs, reboot, engraves unwanted lines that are not there. It will engrave wood and engrave black anodized aluminum at near maximum power. But sometimes it makes growling noises when the carriage to trying to home and won't. Be prepared to "rework" the machine when you get it. Just today I got it to engrave an "Enigma logo" on wood. The user manual is hardly readable or understandable. Be sure the PC for the engraver is NEVER on the internet. I had BIG problems with anti-virus saying that the USB driver was a harmful virus. Don't run a antivirus program because, like me, I had to have the computer store re-install Win XP Pro on the Dell 3500 Workstation, and then just install MoshiDraw only, nothing else, and no Internet connection. Use the CD Rom to transfer files to the PC and the MosiDraw software. Keep a backup of the software so you can re-install if needed.

I haven't had them shrink for me. I do wash with hot water, rinse with cold, and tumble dry most of the time. These haven't lost their shape, distorted the embroidery design or shrunk away from the fabric borders I've added.

Well, I have been using mine just fine. It works really well. I didnt pay too much attention to maker though.

I have not had a problem using my machine for that type of fabric. I did small projects though. I would say so long as you are using the right thread, needle and tension you should be ok.

I don't know very much about embroidery, but the fabric is your basic canvas with some coating material so I would think that it would be okay for hand embroidery, but might not be sturdy enough for machine embroidery. The dimensions were a little smaller than I anticipated, so designs would have to be fairly small.

I've not had any difficulty with denim. Just today, I sewed Suede, the machine handled it without any problem. The button holing is super easy. They come out really nice. The largest I've done is a little over an inch. I've still not used all 30 of its stitch capability. I recently made photography backgrounds for my wife's photo business. Different weights of fabric were used. No problems on any of them.

I have had my machine for two years this month, and still like it! I generally sew mid-weight fabrics (clothing alternations, bags/purses) and it's going strong. Struggles a bit with thick layers like seams on denim, and sometimes very lightweight fabrics get tangled, but work slow and it's fine. I don't use a lot of the decorative stitch options, but everything seems to be in good working order.

I honestly don't know which thread it is... I have spoken to several people who say it really doesn't matter which bobbin thread you use as long as its embroidery thread and the bobbin is the correct one for your machine. I have now used at least 60 of these bobbins with NO trouble at all. I have also used the empty to wind my own thread so that the back color matches when stitching lace, with NO problem! Hope this helps!!
