Thank you for giving me the info I needed to get started. I've had it since December but only used it for sewing. Now I'll venture into the embroidery side. Please do more videos.

[@esteladelacruz8825]

I learned so much watching your tutorial. I bought my Epic early this year. Took a class but I seldom use it cause grandkids first. It just lately that I really into it and was glad I found your tutorial. Thanks a lot.

Thanks, Paula!! I'm a new Husqvarna employee & I'm learning so much from your videos & a few others. I feel more confident about doing my demos now. ~Beth

[@dianaboulware6022]

Thoroughly enjoyed - I've had my Epic since October and am still learning - and I did learn some new things. Thanks!

[@rosehinton8287]

This machine is really beautiful however can it handle heavy material to make coats, jeans, corduroy suits etc... I have been skeptical in buy one because of this lack of information in demonstrations. Also, how many layers can it handle at one time? Thank you for responding.

Great job! I just stumbled on your vids. I got my Epic in December and although I've been making some amazing embroidery designs already, your vid helped me see a few features I hadn't yet checked out...specifically, designing on screen. Thanks! Look forward to more. I have subscribed. Cheers!

If you are considering an Epic, go to Husqvarna's website and get on their mailing list. They have specials and some dealers take trade-ins. I have really enjoyed re-learning sewing and have ventured into quilting, and applique.

[@Luvfostermom]

Thank you so much for your demonstration of the EPIC. I am new to Husqvarna machines. I was one of the lucky winners of this machine on Husqvarna Facebook page. I am in the hospital each month for 5 days so I will miss the first and second class at my dealer. I did print the book. So much to learn !! I am new to computers so I have been afraid to even thread it. Thanks for helping me work towards this goal. I like making toys for my local hospital so I am excited to get started. I do not live in AU but in San Diego County USA. I see it has been a year since your last EPIC video, will there be more. Please.

[@jeanneknudsen7229]

Thanks Paula, I learned several things. I was disappointed it did not include the large instruction booklet. I did download it and copy it, had holes put in it and then into a binder. I absolutely love the machine. it sews great and the embroideries come out perfect. My Designer Diamond (loved it) I had for 10 years and it started to break down, I took it in , they sent it off and too cost too much to repair so they threw it away. There was so many problems with it. I guess I wore it out. I do sew everyday. I do think it is worth the cost it if you use it a lot. I thought I may be too old for it,(76) to get my use out of it, but I have granddaughters that like to sew as well. The best part is that financing is available with no finance charges for 5 years. I also got $5000 credit for my Diamond. So I pay $145. a month til it is paid off. I can afford the monthly charge. Sometimes I pull up the manual on my tablet and set it up in a stand beside the machine so I can read it. It s also a good method for a tutorial . I use a memory stick for all my embroideries. I bought an extension for the memory stick as it is kind of hard to put the stick in. I like how you just have to tap/hold the embroidery on the screen, then you can dump it or make changes to the embroidery. I have a problem with the machine screen as I cant seem, to find out the size of embroidery I have put in the machine., Im sure I already know it but would like to see it on the screen, it does show the size of the hoop to put on. I love to make doll clothes, doll quilts and large quilts as well and clothing for people. lots of bags, etc, etc.. so many embroideries so little time. I joined the epic clup, but mostly they do new feet projects. maybe I missed the beginning classes. Now I have to sell items from my Designer Diamond. I was able to use some of t he items on the Epic. I thank you again for the tutorial, I will be watching for others . Have fun no matter what you do. jeanne

[@freetosewandcraft1]

I went to a dealer today to buy some fabric and I saw this machine and fell in love with it. I have a Babylock and I don't like it. The bobbin thread always jams up on machine embroidery and sewing. I hope to get this machine. I live in the USA.

[@diannaa6189]

freetosewandcraft1 I also recently demo this machine. It is so user friendly and beautiful to look at. Did you end up with it? I am still deciding but I am thinking the Epic 980Q. For sewers.

[@marywhite4857]

Hello, just bought my Epic. I am still getting to grips with it, it's a lovely machine. The one thing I am disappointed with though is the instruction manual. With the machine you only get a very shortened version, and that leaves out many fundamental things you need to know. I discovered that there is a much longer one you can download, but I really feel this should have been included with the machine itself. I *know* you have the tutorials on the machine itself, but you have to be very familiar with the machine before you can find them all. It is much easier to have the printed version in front of view at times. To get the extra 150 pages you have to download the longer manual, then print it off - all 150 pages extra. That's a lot of paper, a lot of ink and a great deal of time (for printing rather than the downloading). I really think for a top of the range machine that this should be included. You pay a lot of money for this, and it should be included for that price. It doesn't just contain little extras, it contains information you really need to know!! What is worse, you are not even told that there is a longer manual online, so if you are a struggling newbie, you don't even know that there is this to find.Please could this be mentioned to the powers that be! It really isn't difficult for them to add, and it isn't unreasonable to have a full instruction manual provided.

[@PaulaStorm]

Hi Mary, I appreciate what your saying but I think the reason they have done this is because the full manual is already in the machine. Personally I have never even opened my manual because everything I need to know is just one press away. If you click on the Joyos adviser and then click on Knowledge centre you will see the full manual is there. Not just the tutorials but the full manual. If you are in the middle of something and need to know how it works you just press on the question mark across the top of the screen and then click on any item. A brief explanation will come up telling you what it does, or you can click on the bar that says for a more detailed explanation click here. Then you will be taken to that exact page in the manual saving you time trying to find the right page... I know some people really like a book to hold in their hand, but personally I haven't missed it... Hugs Paula

[@marywhite4857]

Thanks for your reply, but there are things I cannot find. My key one at the moment is how to adjust stitch width, and I'm not even sure this is possible! I know it sets this automatically, but I need to be able to change this. I'm using the zigzag, and need it to be really wide, but the machine only stitches out a really narrow one. I can adjust the length, but not the width. What I thought might be the width seems to change the tension or the foot pressure, I'm not quite sure. I don't know any sewer who does not need to do this at times.If you can tell me where I can find how to do this, or the instructions, I'd be really pleased!

[@PaulaStorm]

Hi Mary, Yes you can definitely change the stitch width on pretty much every stitch in the machine. You know how theres the tutorial that you have showing across the bottom of your screen, if you close that you will see the width adjustment buttons underneath it. Regards Paula PS. the other adjustment at the top is to adjust the new thread feeding system. This eliminates the tension disc's so you get a perfect stitch even with fussy metallic threads.

Hi Mary, I went out on Husqvarna Epic internet, and printed mine.. I'm very disappointed because for what we pay for these machines, we should have gotten one for free already printed!

I got my Epic yesterday and I've been studying everything I can to get to know it. I am having trouble with the Sewnet Cloud. I have a lot of designs on my lap top that I would like to be available on the Epic. So I'll be looking for a video for that and how to get designs off a memory stick. I am so excited to see these videos and have loved the ones I've seen. Thank you for making them. EllenR

[@leighh5435]

Boy did I have a problem with that also. I had to take my laptop into the store. I know we had to pin the sewnet cloud into the quick access file on Windows 10. Download program, register, run exe file then right click and pin to your favorites or Quick Access. Export you file to that file folder.

[@diannaa6189]

Ellen Rumpff do you still love your machine ?

[@seagreentangerine2065]

If you're buying one of these incredible machines, regardless of model, you MUST make sure the supplier runs the Owner courses. Yes, you could learn from the machine, but lots of us learn by being shown in a class situation. Do not buy one without that course, otherwise you could end up like some ladies I've interviewed recently, they have mega expensive machines.... never used them, bought at retirement, never used... that's a real crying shame, a gorgeous machine gathering dust. I can recommend two UK Midlands/North places - Coles in Nottingham and another dealer in Sheffield whose name escapes me but it's run by a group of very knowledgeable women.

[@mikedebbiecrenshaw1721]

I have a Brillance 80 and it is my understanding that it is very similar to the Epic. Do you find that to be the case? Also, do you know if I can move Topaz 25 embroidery onto my new machine? I just bought it today, it’s not even set up yet. I like your video - great information.

Christian Tamez has a brilliant one. He shows it on a Ruby, but it transfers very easily to the Epic, especially when you use the manual. I've never had any other Viking other than an Epic, so I didn't even understand the brand when I watched it. kzbin.info/www/bejne/poWsnKGpo7-hb68

I know this tutorial is older but I have a question. I am debating between 2 machines. The Husqvarna Epic and the Babylock Solaris. I am really torn because my dealer has both but clearly likes the Husqvarna better due to you can change stitch length not so easy on the Solaris... have you seen the Solaris...what would you say is the biggest difference between those 2? Apart from the Solaris being much more expensive. It is quite a big investment just want to make sure. I design pillows

[@AngiesQuilting]

Paula, Could you please post a video of the Viking Epic machine sewing and embroidering with no back ground music. The reason I ask is because when I tested the machine at my local dealers it made a whining, whiring sound when sewing, and the embroidery unit was also very noisy. Of all the videos on You Tube for this machine, all of them have back ground music! I wanted to compare the sounds I heard at my dealers, to other Epic owners machines. Thank you.

[@kenneybren]

[@marywhite4857]

The background music drives me nuts too. Especially on the instruction videos, where you are trying to work out what would be far better explained! I have the cutwork kit, and the video for that is infuriating. In short, machine wonderful, instructions not! I LOVE Paula's videos though.

I just purchased the Designer Epic. Just getting familiar with it. Had the Designer Ruby previously. I have a question, that is quite important to me. I have a design I have been using for many years on my USB and I am happy for, However, I don't seem to find directions for adding my "signature design" to it. I have found the other design from my USB and placed it where it should be. However, I cannot figure out how to include it to the stitch out for the project. How can I do that? I was able to do it on my Ruby so I am sure there must be a way to do it on the Epic. Please help me! My new is Marlene

[@karrengarton6281]

Hello Paula, will you please explain what the numbers are directly above the stitch length. On the basic sewing screen... it also seems to have an "on/off button " I have no idea what it is for, and I haven't been able to find the link or any tutorial on it! Please HELP!! Thank you in advance!

[@susancarne3898]

Hi Karren, the numbers directly above the stitch length is for tension. if you are in stitch A2 a standard straight stitch the number probably reads 50. the is a swirl with two black dots and a small circle around the swirl. The white button to the right is not really an on/off button. It is called an alternate switch button. It will toggle between the two types of tension that are built into this machine. Standard tension is a pressure system and the second system is a metering system. Your dealer can explain this better, maybe with a demo. Whenever you see the little white button it indicates that there is another function underneath that you can toggle to. If you see the button next to stitch length you toggle to control the density. If the little white button is below by the stitch width, you toggle to the needle position. In embroidery there are more little white buttons. Check with someone local, they can show you these features.

[@stinki97128]

Are you able to digitize embroidery designs from a photo?

[@linetteleroux8960]

Paula I have both the Ruby deluxe (great machine) and recently bought Diamond Royale. Would I be doing myself a favour by selling both and invest in an EPIC rather. What is your thoughts on this. I must admit that I am not really using the Diamond as I found that I could not do much more on this machine than on my Ruby.

[@PaulaStorm]

Hi Linette, I think you will need to sit down and have a demo on the Epic to see if it will suit you. Personally I had the diamond and I loved it! Before I saw the Epic I really didn't think it could be that much of an upgrade. I just couldn't imagine that the features could get any better! I was so wrong! The Epic is so easy to use! The screen is so much more user friendly and there is quite a few new features. The resize feature is one of my favourites. Personally I'm very glad I changed over, the Epic is much bigger, it is also much easier to use, so if that's important to you I would suggest you have a demo of the Epic. I hope that helps xxx

does it have a cable to connect to the machine to the computer?

[@jeremyconway39]

What are some of the differences between the Epic and the Brilliance 80? TIA

[@rogerpeggywheat1630]

The Epic is about 5 inches wider (not including the embroidery arm). It is big. Husqvarna Viking website has a side by side comparison chart. The Epic can do larger embroideries. The Epic is a lot more money. Many are very satisfied with their Brilliance 80. Hard to justify the added cost and weight.

[@help4africanwcfkanostatech376]

You didn't show how the needle actually threaded. Is it automatic, or do you still have to pull the lever down? Mine is always in for repair to straighten the wire that catches the thread.

[@njlerrn]

You're right Rachel, it's very difficult to find the prices on all Viking machines. They want to get you hooked first then tell you the shocking price.......hahaha. Don't get me wrong - I LOVE my Epic and have never regretted trading up to my 4th Designer machine in the last 10-12 years. The MSRP is or was $15,000 18 months ago. It may have come down a little by now but please always wait for the sales/deals/trade-in offers and you can save thousands off the MSRP. It's still a lot of money but if you sew every day like I do - worth it to me.
