Brother LB6770PRW Project Runway Sewing-and-Embroidery Machine Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)After reviewing the instruction book, I found this machine very easy to use, quiet and really great in the way it performed. All sewing stitches are very easy to access at the touch of your finger and easy adjustments can be made during the sewing process. The embroidery part of this machine (the real reason I bought it) works very easily, also. I would recommend this machine for it's price, ease of use and compact design. The additional software was too expensive but contains some nice designs. I don't know if I would buy the software right away, maybe after I got to be more expert in the embroidery part of the machine. Still, all in all, a great buy.

Janome 1600P-DBX High Performance Sewing Machine By The Each Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The Little Gracie II Machine Quilting Frame is a marvelous, sturdy, easy to construct frame for home machine quilting. It takes time and patience but all parts are clearly labeled and it comes with both a guidebook and a DVD. Watch the DVD first to get a great overview. Now, The Janome part is another story: It is advertised in this package as the machine to use for quilting on this frame, which needs major clarification. It does not have a feed dog lowering feature so extra parts are needed which should come with the machine in order to make it work. There was only a straight foot and a hemmer in the Janome package (figure those for free form machine quilting??). The Janome site is not clear in reference to support; in fact when contacting them they told me to go to a local dealer. There are no other guidelines for use other than the basic plug it in, thread it booklet, no accessories information, etc. I would buy the Little Gracie II by itself and find myself another long-arm quilting machine if I had it to do over for purchase. However, the support from Amazon has been great in helping me obtain the foot needed to make this system work as it should have as advertised.
