I'm a new subscriber. I am thinking of getting the Poolin with the larger hoop. I own a Brother SE1900 and a multineedle embroidery machine. This one looks very similar to the Brother single needle. I've been watching lots of videos on this machine because it is a new brand and so far I like the features on it. Thanks for sharing your tutorials. 😊

Welcome to the channel! I don't have the SE1900 but from what I know about it, I think the Poolin will be similar to that machine but with much larger hoops on the EOC06 and the Poolin will trim jump stitches. The biggest difference you will see is the Poolin threading path is very picky and you have to make sure the thread gets in all the right places (which are hidden behind the case.) The Brother is MUCH easier to thread but the Poolin takes more getting used to and people are easily frustrated by that. Since you have a multi-needle - you probably know about knotting threads rather than re-threading? I do that on the Poolin and have had no issues. I can make a video on the knotting technique (knot threads and pull through the entire thread path) if you're not familiar with it. (●'◡'●)

@BallyhooCreations, the price is very good in comparison with Brother Stellaire and others in the same category. I do use the knotting on my multineedle. You explained with great details on your video how to thread the machine and how to remove the cover if needed. I will let you know how it went once I get the machine. Thanks for the information 😊!

Those monsters are adorable! Excellent tip about putting the piece of stabilizer on top of the fabric (I don't think I've seen anyone do that before) so that the presser foot doesn't catch the material and push it all around (the reason why I've always hated ITH projects). I love it, I'm going to have to try this now. Thank you!!!

[@BallyhooCreations]

I hope that tips works for you! I had forgotten that was even necessary since multi-needle machines don't have that problem and I'll talk more about in-the-hoop tips in my next video.

Your animations are fun and cute!

[@BallyhooCreations]

Thank you my friend (●'◡'●) I always wanted to do more stop-motion animations but nobody ever mentions liking them so I'm not sure it's worth all the time and trouble? (ʘ ͜ʖ ʘ)
