This is maybe the best purchase I've ever made πŸ˜ƒπŸ€©

For my birthday I got an embroidery sewing machine from my husband and son. I'm fairly new to machine embroidery. I wanted to get some cheaper threads to practice with to see if I could get the hang of it. I know for sure, because I've been researching for over a year, that I'll probably have a lot of breaks and entanglements. Let me tell you, these topics surprised me. Came out beautiful. And there were only 3 cases of breakage and tangling. They might have been my mistake as I'm very new, but I won't know for sure until I start doing more embroidery behind the belt. The first project I did was supposed to be the hardest for a beginner with 28 color changes and took me two and a half hours (make it big or go home right?). I was surprised I only broke the thread twice, one of the brown ones, and only one ball in the float chamber. The ball got really tangled and the fabric slipped. If I remember correctly it was another shade of brown that had the tread torn, so browns don't like my car for some reason. I have now used almost every color in this box and I couldn't be more impressed. I think they are amazing quality and for the price you absolutely can't beat them. They added some pre-wound and empty spools which unfortunately doesn't work with my machine but may work with my other machine or even my mother's machine, not tested yet. They also gave me some stabilizer (which is a bit lower quality but great to have something to practice with. I haven't used it yet because I already have another stabilizer) and stitches for all the coils which are absolutely amazing πŸ‘ πŸ‘Œ πŸ˜‰!

Pros
  • Large selection
Cons
