Wize Buying Guide for Embroidery
Modern embroidery machines allow beginners to make high quality designs on almost any material to customize bed sheets, towels, t-shirts, and more. If you're a beginner or want a machine that does the hardest parts for you, there are plenty of machines that fit the bill.

For easy, high quality embroidering you'll want a computerized machine. These can be connected to a computer to select patterns or designs, which the machine will then execute with very little guidance. They require little knowledge and even beginners will get great results.

Machines with Direct Computer Interface are the easiest to use, as you hook them up to your computer and use a special software to select designs. Non Direct Interface machines are cheaper but won't have as much functionality or choices as their direct counterparts.

If you want to use multiple colors, make sure the machine comes with a twin needle for incorporating more than one color into a design at one time. A twin needle is not necessary, but is a great extra for the true enthusiast.
