- Thinking about starting a business with an embroidery machine? What type of embroidery machine would work best for customizing items to sell? We'll be going over my single-needle embroidery machine (the Brother PE800) compared to multi-needle machines and which type I recommend for embroidery businesses.

I started my etsy shop with the pe800. The reason I decided to do it this way was because I couldn't afford a multi needle and didn't want to be stuck with monthly payments before knowing if I could actually get sales or not. I also didn't want to learn embroidery on an expensive machine and do something stupid and break it.
In the end, I was able to get sales on my etsy shop. It was hard work because I was doing kids birthday shirts so with the pe800 I had to babysit the shirts the entire time. I couldn't multi task. I also had to rehoop the shirts for the name so the design could be large enough on shirts above 3T. I was able to do about 10 shirts maximum a day and it took all day. But at that point I knew I was getting more than enough sales to cover the monthly payments on a multi needle so I upgraded
Thank you for sharing all that!
What did you upgrade to??
@@tatiannahclarke1049 I got the brother pr680w because they do zero interest for 5 years so my payments are only about $170 a month
@@tiffm3110 Hi there! Are you happy with the PR680w? Did it fit all your needs?
This machine is good for smaller business such as personalizing toys 🧸 or selling patches that only use 1 color of thread. Keep in mind that the more thread color choices your project has the more time it will take for that project
Is it able to do something multi colored like a pet portrait?
I was living in Japan up until last year. I purchased a Brother “Parie” machine for around $560 USD. It did both embroidery and sewing like a champ. I sold it before I moved back to the US because I thought I could find a cheaper embroidery and sewing machine here for around the same quality. How very wrong I was. 😅
Great video. I will say that I got the PE800 because of your advice and a few others. I learned embroidery on it and use it for other projects. I recently upgraded to a 6 needle and am so happy I did. But without the PE800 foundation first, for me, I would have been lost. Love your honesty.
Love your videos :) I've been sewing for 25+ years and recently got into embroidery using a Janome machine :)
I’ve just started sewing my own scrub caps. Now my colleges want my caps and I’d like to stitch their names and titles. This machine seems as if it would work great for the simple embroidery. Thanks so much!
If you buy a single needle machine get one that is a combined sewing/embroidery machine as these tend to have higher end sewing features. Factor in the size, weight and noise generated by these machines. Multi needle machines need their own stand if you want to move them around as they are too heavy to lift on your own. Whereas a single needle machine can be stored away when not in use. Probably best to start with a secondhand combined sewing/embroidery single needle machine to get used to fabric, stabilisers and thread, to see if you like stitching out embroideries. Designing is fun and the end product is beautiful, but watching the machine stitch it out can be noisy and tedious.
I have. Janome 9900. does sewn & embroidery. Machine does a lot from quilting, smalll large embro projects Etc etc !must change each color but still does a nice job, cost for patterns is low, import designs thu USB 2..To use for a business would be aslow process.
Very good information. You are so right about the points you have made. I have a very old Husqvarna Viking Designer I which I only use once in a while, but it is also a sewing machine. However, I am tempted by the Babylock Alliance. It’s strictly a one free arm embroidery machine. But, what a hefty price tag of $5,000.
I've seen quite a few nice gently used machines on Facebook Marketplace...
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you for this video. I have been looking at this machine to purchase and your video just pop up so I will be watching your other videos to determine if this machine is for me.
I like the sound of multi head machines ❤
I kind of thought that it wouldn't be a good idea to use a single needle embroidery machine for a business. I know someone who uses there single needle machine to make kid shirts and it takes at least 30 to 45 mins to stitch out a shirt. And multi-needle machines scare me 😁
Yes, the maintenance and repairs on a multi-needle embroidery machine does seem daunting. Some people can DIY this, but if you're not very mechanical, you'll need to consider the availability and cost of an embroidery machine tech expert.
@@SewingReport I’m wanting to start a business as well but this doesn’t scare me bc I don’t expect to do more than a couple products a day. Would it still be worth it or do you think I should do a mutineers machine?
Loads of people say they started with 1 needle then upgraded, I feel like doing that you need quite a few money, just checked a semi industry one and it's starting at 11K, for some of us more than we will ever have, even with monthly rates :(
Even financing would make it hard due to interest charges!
Would you know how to group colors together. My machine se600 has me changing 8 colors 120 times because it chooses to sew in sections instead of each color at a time. Keep in mind I did separate the colors in inkstitch.
@@MarkusWITH_a_k You need an embroidery editing software like Sew What Pro to do that before sending the file to your SE600.
Thanks for the info Jen! Very informative. 😊
@sewingReport, Is there an embroidery machine you recommend to start with?
Well I wanted to start a business using the skitch from brother but after having it a couple hours am returning it. 😢
Great video
i need more guide for this
Hi Jennifer I can't find the PE800 OR THE PE900 in england is there any replacement for it please
PE800 has been discontinued
hey!!! where can I purchase the brother pe800? in Canada.
is it discontinued
I'm not sure if it's discontinued, but has been hard to get the past few years due to supply chain issues.
@@SewingReport do you know anywhere I could look?? ive been trying for like 3 days cant find anything lower then $2k
Might be worth waiting a few weeks and contact local dealers. Brother has just brought out new top of the line single needle machines. When people trade in their old machines to get these new machines, the trade ins are often available at much more reasonable prices
How’s your opinion on machines from Ali baba
How much cost
love you
Honestly these machines are waaaaaaaaaay too overpriced
