If later on I wanted a digitizer software for the Singer it will only cost me $200. This comes with 3,900 stock designs & he emailed me a link that shows all the designs & it has a bunch of medical & letters!! I am so excited. I have made my final decision "Singer Furtura CE-100". I want the futura now!! I didn't realize that I would need all that extra stuff for the brother. When I make my final desicion on a machine I will have to look into what I will need to get started. But I will have to check out those sites you told me about. The reviews say the Furtura is not recommended for beginners, I have seen that said a few different times. I had a good experience with them before so I wouldn't mind buying from them again. Sewvacdirect (who I bought my first sewing machine from a few months ago, Huskystar 207) is giving me a really good deal on a Disney. The only thing I can make now are scrub tops & I'v mastered them. I really would like to take some classes for sewing & embroidery. I didn't realize embroidery was so expensive. Plus I need to use the extra money to get the other stuff you mentioned in your email (didn't think about needing anything else, LOL). I hear a lot of complaints about the Furtura & I don't usually have good luck. I need an easy machine & then maybe later on if & when I get good I can upgrade. I am really thinking about getting the Brother Disney 270D now. It will take some trial-and-error to figure out which ones you like and want to use. * just because these programs will recognize and load any TrueType font, be aware that not all fonts will LOOK GOOD embroidered, esp. I am in no way (other than as customer!) related to the people who bring us SewWhat! or Embroidery Library, so I hope it is OK to mention them! my favorite being Embroidery Library: it's enormous and has cool sales that change weekly (also projects and tutorials, check it out). For your "stock medical" designs, google for free ones and for suppliers of individually-priced ones. Unless you want a PARTICULAR medical logo (like, local hospital's), you won't need AutoPunch - and you have another machine for "regular" sewing, so no need to purchase the CE200.
including adding lettering to an already-complete design. Like HyperFont, it will use any TrueType font* on your computer unlike HyperFont, your computer does not have to be hooked to the sewing machine to start the program and set up a project.
after only a little experience, I recommend SewWhat! for lettering (free FULLY FUNCTIONAL 30-day trial, then $50 to own what a deal!). I have the CE-200 (comes with AutoPunch) and Singer's HyperFont lettering module that I bought WITH the machine and WITHOUT any experience.
Practice on some scrap material, and not some finished garment you have already put good time into. It's pretty fussy about every detail being done in the right order. The Singer CE-100 should work just fine for you! Just be prepared to put in a few frustrating days getting to know it.
