Best answer:
Answer by Millie It will depend on your budget.
With an embroidery machine you can embroider and do regular sewing at the same time. If you can afford an embroidery machine and you have the time to get the tutorials, go for it.
Electronic machines are great, easy to operate and have lots of decorative stitches that are simple to use. Prices will depend on the amount of decorative stitches, so you can choose the most convenient for you. -Just make sure never ever put a magnet close to them. -
Compact machines are the most affordable but usually do not have many decorative stitches.
If you really like sewing, also take into consideration a machine that has a considerable amount of attachment that will make your life easier. Some brands like Singer and Sears Kenmore offer the attachments separate so you can buy them are your own pace. There are many "generic" attachment in the market, but, by my own experience, sometimes they do not work properly. There are plenty of books on how to use the attachments.

Embroidery sewing machine adds beauty and detail to anything you sew. The latest trend is prevailing of computerized embroidery sewing machine. Embroidery machines are available in to different types. These two types are a sewing embroidery machine blending with both sewing and embroidery or just a simple embroidery machine which does just embroidery.
To special automatic embroidery machines can be attributed the machines using not quite standard embroidery methods, machines that are able to perform embroidery on out-of-the-way places of complete products and on materials that are difficult for embroidery. To one of the most commonly used type of special automatic embroidery machines can be attributed the so called schiffli, machines that allow making embroidery with the utilization of decorative cord, to cut through material and at the same time to process the cut by embroidery.
These machines are mostly used for finishing of light and thin, translucent, fashioned and other smart cloth and articles made out of it. For instance, Schiffli machines are often used at wedding dresses decoration. Quite recently it appeared a new interesting kind of automatic special embroidery-the so called no-thread-embroidery and automatic no-thread embroidery machines.
The principle of operation of such machines has a remote conformity with principle of producing of needle-punched fabrics. It consists in the fact that the machine with a set of needles (24 needles) runs through the structure of the main (working) material the locks of fibers of special auxiliary material. The auxiliary material is laid under the main material. After the auxiliary material removing on the main material remains an effective, specific pattern (picture).
Nowadays the leader in production of no-thread embroidery machines is the Japan Company Tanaka. In 2001 fashion show in Berlin and Paris were presented impressive collections made with the help of no-thread - embroidery on "Vari-O-Matic" machine of this company. To universal automatic embroidery machines are related the machines of lock-stitch with coordinate displaced frame holder which is meant for manufacture of embroidery with threads on classical and most widespread materials and articles. The use of such machines supposes some limitations in properties of used materials and constructions of complete products.
But these limitations are constantly growing narrower due to constant modernization and improvement of universal automatic embroidery machines and due to use of manifold auxiliary facilities and special devices. All known universal automatic embroidery machines are of lock-stitch type of machines and the structure of many parts of the mechanism has many similarities with lock-stitch embroidery machines.
The main parts of single-head universal automatic embroidery machine are column, case, frame holder and head. The case is fixed on column and consists of pole and cantilevered arm. Inside the upper part of column is installed the stitch mechanism. Inside the case is installed the main shaft mechanism. On the head is disposed a set of needle mechanisms with thread takeup and thread guide mechanisms. The head is able to shift from case in the horizontal position, engaging with the main shaft stirring up the needed needle mechanism. This enables the machine to make the shift of the thread color at one embroidery run.
In this way the machine can make loch-stitches on material of different length and in any given order and direction, executing if needed the shift of working needle with the thread of the definite color. The industrial automatic embroidery machines can be both single-headed and with few heads and with corresponding number of necessary working mechanisms. The last are called many headed or multihead automatic embroidery machines.
Under normal conditions of embroidery all the heads and frame holders mechanisms works synchronously.
