I'm working on quilting with the embroidery feature on my Janome 11000 and it's going just fine. However, I am considering upgrading the software on my machine to bring it up to the SE. I am wondering if it's worth it. My biggest complaint is having to rehoop so many times. I see that the SE has a magnetic hoop that is supposed to making rehooping a breeze. Also I'm wondering how many quilting patterns are built in and if they are user friendly. I understand the upgrade lets you size the designs to the area that needs to be filled in. That would be great, since the embroidery designs I ordered on-line don't completely fill the area when I get close to the border. I'm going to have to purchase more designs to finish it off (I'm doing an all-over pattern.) I was considering carrying the design onto the border but I really want to do something different on the borders. If anyone has this newer version of my machine please fill me in.
