Not saying there isn't one.

But paying off a screenprinting set-up will be much easier than paying off an embroidery set-up.

There's definitely a market for both but I have to agree that it takes less time to screen print and more profitable.  On the other hand an embroidered shirt looks a lot better and will last longer.

Hello,

I'm currently working with Tshirts/vinyl and many have asked me to step into embroidery.  I've been researching machines and thinking of going with the Brother line.  I'd like to stay under $1500 since I'm just starting and thinking of getting a machine that sews as well as embroiders (just so I can get rid of my sewing machine).  OR should I stay with just the embroidery machine.  Can anyone make any suggestions? 

Also, do I need special software for embroidery; I currently have CorelDraw X5 and WinPCSIGN PRO?

Thanks for all you help. ;D ;D

I purchased the digitizing software with my brother and I tried for a while and gave up.  I just pay a company to digitize for me for $35 per design and the quality of the embroidered product is 200% better than when I used to do it myself.

Don't waste money on expensive digitizing software, just pay an expert to do it for you.
