Best Machine Ever!
By: Rylee on 26 August 2024I got the M380D as an upgrade and I will never go back to a machine without auto cut! It is very easy to use. I love that it is an embroidery, quilting and sewing in one and I like to do all 3. When I went in store to purchase the machine all the staff were lovely and very helpful. Thank you.

I’m enjoying my digital sewing and embroidery mach
By: Leisl on 12 April 2024I bought this machine after watching the very thorough video Gary made. I don’t live near your shop. It’s unusual as every other major purchase I’ve check out in person. But the video was that good! Has lots of sewing features like an auto buttonhole that I was looking for and tonnes more stitches than my vintage Bernina. Came with a few feet. I’ve bought a few more since and love that the snap on feet are so affordable and widely available! I’m still getting used to it as a sewing machine. It seems to sew an extra stitch or two where my Bernina would have stopped already, so I’m using my hand wheel more. Love the automatic threader. Yes I went thru it not working and thought I’d broken it but googled and found the immensely helpful video from echidna telling me to put the foot down and try again. Low and behold that worked and it’s worked perfectly every time since. I was surprised to see 400 others had the same problem hence the video. Maybe it’s something that could be included in the letter to new machine owners along with the intense instructions to keep the packaging? I’ve also enjoyed the embroidery features My kids are enjoying the frozen and Disney princess designs! The dispatch of the embrilliance software to my email was slow and it was a bit confusing to learn that the digital items are only available when logging in on the echidna site. They are not emailed. I actually forgot I’d bought software and ended up buying knockdown stitches due to the late delivery of software which in contrast was emailed to me. I do love that the designs were on a usb. Maybe all the digital items could be delivered via usb to save confusion. The pdf book about embroidery was good but I think including a virtual class in the everything you need would have been more helpful. Also would be helpful to include more brother a bobbins for sewing not just embroidery preloaded bobbins. Suggestions about thread bundles to buy to stitch out all the designs the machine comes with would also be helpful. I spent hours writing lists of all the brother colours I would need to stitch out the Disney designs and designs from the machine, It totalled about 60 colours. I couldn’t afford the hemingworth thread in all those colours. And wasn’t sure how to quickly convert all the different codes etc. I was also frustrated that the colours and numbers didn’t match. so ended up getting thread from Temu which had brother numbers which has been ok except for one pink that is a bit neon for what it’s meant to be. Comparing them I can see the hemingworth thread is thinner which gives a smoother higher quality picture which is also nicer against your skin on a gamet. The 6 threads that came in the everything you need pack were also weird colours. Sure black and white are helpful. The orange and green are in lots of designs too. But the ginger and blue don’t seem to match any designs that came with the machine. Also not sure what to do with the thread tension guide. There were no printed instructions. The book referred to it. I don’t even know if I can adjust the bobbin on this machine. I can’t adjust the foot height or the sewing speed, all things the book told me to do. The book also has loads of broken website links that need to be fixed up as it was written several years ago. Instructions on what the 3 spool stand is for would also be helpful. I’ve loved this but my hubby is making me a 10 spool stand as 3 isn’t as efficient as I’d like. Even though I’ve got a lot of suggestions, I am thoroughly enjoying my new machine. Yes I’m still getting used to it and comfortable with it. I’ve been a but distracted exploring and dabbling in the new skill of embroidery. I naievely thought I’d just stitch things out and they’d always be perfect but it really is a skill. I’m keen to do the beginner class. Then get back to sewing garments and my goal of learning garment pattern making.
