Oh Angela, I love you! I started watching your videos because I’m considering buying a PE800 and I like knowing about things before I invest. ( I sew professionally, but this would be my first personal embroidery machine). I really appreciate that you purchased this machine to help your subscribers. You are so thoughtful. And one of the coolest things about you is that you remained calm while testing your machine! As we all know, sometimes our machines need a little adjustments. Thank you for all you do.
I'm glad you allowed us to see that you had a snag, and walked us through your though process/resolution. For someone like me who does not have a machine yet but will in the future, that was very helpful. Thank you. Can't wait for the next one. I'm going to have to save for plane ticket to go and take your embroidery class in your big new warehouse (just thinking ahead). May God Bless you with granting all of your dreams. May HE compensate for helping so many of us.❤💕🙌👏
Thank you so much for helping us. Thank you to your mom, for gifting this not just to you but for all of us to learn on our beginning machine. I stop using there thread holder and use a metal stand in the front for the machine. The thread would get jammed on the white circle ⚪️ stopper a lot.
If you use the mini embroidery thread spools, are you using the thread spool insert?? My thread kept getting caught on the white circle spool cap also - was so frustrating until I read in the manual that for the mini spools, the spool insert was to be used instead. In your pe800 manual, see pg. B-5, the "included accessory page", part#13 shows the "spool insert". You put the spool on and then the spool insert, it fits inside the spool and holds it firmly. It works wonders and eliminates the need for the spool cap altogether. Also Pg. B-15 it shows how to use it. (This is refering to the pe800 "operation manual") Hope this helps :-)
Use the small grey pin thread stopper that comes with the machine for larger spool threads and make sure you are using the correct size white thread stopper and you wont gave any issues with thread jams.
Thank your mama from us for purchasing this pe800 for you to show your followers 🙏🏽 Thank you for being such a great humble human being💜much blessings to you and your family
You are the best! I followed your advice and purchased the fabric from Jo-Ann to practice on. It does give you a true sense of what it’s like to embroider on the actual T-shirt or onesie without ruining your supplies. Life saver 💜💜💜. Help one crafter one video at a time Keep up the great work
Correct....as you stated it is finding that correct tension. I too went through many needles until I found the right zone per say. It was/is frustrating at first however once you break it in.... a beautiful machine
@@bridgetgainous5487 all you have to do is put the metal piece into the bobbin case and slide your bobbin in onto it. It's pretty simple and I never had to fiddle with the tension using it.
@@lilpinksliplee7310 are you able to keep tension on 4.0 also my book said you only need it for the prewound bobbins. So in I use my wound bobbins would I still need to use the magmatic piece?
@@terrispake2719 I haven't had to change the tension at all using prewound bobbins or self wound and l keep the magnetic piece in because it stitches out better with it.
hi there, In my brother class, a teacher make me bought that piece of magnet thing for the bobin and gave me a sample bobin to use with it , it was a bobin with only a plastic center to hod the thread. not a hold plastic bobin like the ones you show us. maybe thats it . also told me that the tensión to embroidery always was 2, I had leard that that depents on the Brand of the thread .Its so nice of you to show your new machine , I wish I have one like that , mine is a inovis 990 Disney . lots of TLC .
Hi Angela I love watching your videos you inspired me to purchase an embroidery machine I got the pe800 I wanted to ask you if I have to purchase an embroidery software to create my own designs
Hello beautiful Thank you for this video I'm going to attempt to unbox mines tonight Your the best again thank you for help us achieve something new in our lives we 💕 u
My back stitches are waves not straight…. But I have a brother pe1900. I finally got rid of bird nesting, and then went from no bobbin showing to almost all bobbin in the back and to the front. 2 days working in it. I feel like I shouldn’t be going from towels to shirts, to dresses! It messed up my tensions. :(.
Can you put a smaller piece of stabilizer behind and glue it with temporary adhesive spray to the fabric or do you have to cover the entire hoop with the stabilizer?
I love your channel by the was...you are so inspiring and your video are so helpful. Can you setup at shirt on the PE800 to embroider ? Thanks in advance
I have a se600 and new to embroidery. My bottom bobbin is showing on my design, but not the top bobbin! Why do you think this could be happening? How can I fix this??
Are you using green bobbin thread? Otherwise the tension is too tight, you should be able to see the bobbin thread on the bottom. Just what I've been taught
Lol...holy crap...haha... I'd never actually witnessed an embroidery machine in action! All the shaking would have freaked me out! It's a wonder that the machine doesn't completely fall apart with all the vibration! Wow - and are most that noisy?
Angela Ramirez I have the PE800 and it isn’t noisy like that. I was surprised at how loud her machine is too. I actually had to turn my volume down. Then once she completed the design and began talking I turned my volume back up. I read in a comment below that if you get some kind of mat to put under the machine it won’t be so noisy. This machine really is amazing. Angela’s channel is amazing too! My sister and I watch her videos all the time and they’ve been a great help!
Hello Beautiful I just unboxed my PE800, I am not seeing the thread pattern you stated on the video the back of my project has the same color as the back. I adjusted the top tension is there something else I'm doing wrong?
Angela I can’t find ANY videos addressing how to fix bobbin tension on this particular machine. Mine is fresh out the box and I see more bobbin thread than top thread. I’ve played with tension on top but nothing works 😭
What is the name of the fabric so I can ask the staff at Joann? I tried to find it myself in the store and I was too shy to ask for help and couldn't find it. Or is there a link to the fabric at the online store?
I purchased a cotton knit as recommended by Angela. I couldn’t find it at first but then a store associate said they will be marked as knit ( more cotton than spandex). When you see it you’ll know because it resembles T-shirt fabric. Hope that helps.
Did you say you had 30 or 40 wt on top thread??? Should be 40 for that machine. Also, there was nothing, no tension settings, no thread weight combinations, no self-wound, no prewound bobbin changes that would work for my pe800 when I first bought it, I wanted to cry. Then I watched a youtube which showed me how to adjust a screw on the bobbin holder , it worked, now my machine works perfect and has for nearly 8 months, no issues.
So I’m new to this machine + embroidery but my machine is messing up and hopefully someone can help! So I’ll be in the middle of an embroidery, everything is going good, and the bobbin needs replaced, replace it and the tension goes nuts. The bottom thread will be all on the top. Everytime. I’ve adjusted my bobbin tension a million times and idk what else to do. Some one pls help 😭😭😭😭
I am having trouble with my thread breaking and needing to rethread the needle. I am not sure why it keeps doing this. I have adjusted the tension, which has helped, but other than that???
i’m having the same problem but my machine also doesn’t embroidered as in the thread goes into the garment but once the needle comes back up nothing is on the garment does that make sense?
Angela, I have question, I have the brother persona, just got it 1 week ago, and I work for a medical office. We want to embroider our logo. How can I do that??? Thx Giovanna
Send a file of the logo to a digitizer and they will digitize an embroidery file to you it will cost you a little bit but then you will have the file to embroider what you want.
That's too much noise. Put a rubber slip mat under machine. Use a ball point needle for tshirt fabric. It sounds too noisy. Mine does that only if needle blunt or not a stretch needle.
@@AngelaJasmina thank you. Yes, it's coming from China. It said it was in Los Angeles, but, it's been there for almost a month. I'm not patient enough. I watch you and get too anxious because I have paid for it and......nothing yet! I'll keep waiting!
Hi. I wanted to get into embroidery 🧵 but this machine is a little pricey for me. Could you give me the model of the machine under this one or give me a suggestion on a good or decent machine within the $300/$400.00 price range ? Thanks

What kind of fabric is it so I can order it
Letisha 239
Just go to your local fabric store, Joann’s or hobby lobby and ask for knit cotton- the kind T-shirts’ are made from. Hope that helps
Correct....as you stated it is finding that correct tension. I too went through many needles until I found the right zone per say. It was/is frustrating at first however once you break it in.... a beautiful machine
Great Tutorial for those who already have this machine I know this helps them alot. Thxs for sharing.
That metal piece for the bobbin is like using a magnetic bobbin it helps to ensure the right tension Angela.
I did not know that metal piece was even included. Do you mind doing a video on how it works.
@@bridgetgainous5487 all you have to do is put the metal piece into the bobbin case and slide your bobbin in onto it. It's pretty simple and I never had to fiddle with the tension using it.

Awesome video, thank you so much! I have the SE1900 and it seems much slower when I do embroidery, not sure why?
Hi!
I recently purchased this machine but I’m having so much trouble with tension and how the inside should look when tension is correct.
Are you going to start making your own tees? This was great! thanks sugar
I'm getting a pe 770 and I wanted to see videos but I didnt see none on your channel. Can you do a video on that machine?
Thank you, Angela! God Bless 🙏☺️
Can you put a smaller piece of stabilizer behind and glue it with temporary adhesive spray to the fabric or do you have to cover the entire hoop with the stabilizer?
Can you show how to start where you left off? So if my tension is fine or I run out of bobbin. How to I pick up where I left off?
I love your channel by the was...you are so inspiring and your video are so helpful. Can you setup at shirt on the PE800 to embroider ? Thanks in advance
Hey, love your videos. I just bought this PE800 and I'm looking for someone that can digitize artwork for me...any suggestions
Hi Angela! I love your videos! I just had a question about the adhesive spray, is there anything else we can use besides the adhesive spray?
Is this mechien useful for narmalstich?any fabric and do heavy duty?and stich any dress and babyfroks etc and embraidaring work.please explain to me.
Can you add fabric to that like you do with your big machines I’m just curious,,,,I can’t wait to get me one

You may need to tighten the bobbin case tension screw. Your manual should explain that:)
The bobbins you linked to are 60wt. You said you use 90wt. Which was correct?
Thank you Angela
What do you think about the baby lock Destiny 2?

Do you have the link to that video? It might help me with my old machine. Thanks
What do you do if the bobbin thread is showing on top?
Can you show us how to cross stitch on this machine? And what the back looks like afterwards? Can you show how to create our own stitches?
That hast to be done by acquiring a digitized design that stitches it to look like cross stitch.
why my machine those the embroidery from the bobbin in not from the top ?
What replacement needles do you use
So I’m new to this machine + embroidery but my machine is messing up and hopefully someone can help!

This Brother PE800 is just a embroidery machine? or sewing as well?
I wish there was a magnetic hoop available for this machine.
There is a magnetic hoop available for this model
Ms. Lilpinkslip Lee . Info on which magnetic hoop please🎂🤗
@@ms.selfdefensediva7748 it is the LM6 from Snap Hoop Monster
Amazon 5x7 metal magnetic hoop for brother/Babyock $59.99. Check it out
Love magnetic hoops! My Pfaff uses many sizes
What tension is good to have to not break the needle?
Are you using the needle that was already pre installed? When I try to thread the machine it doesn’t go through the needle
What speed is your machine at? Should slow it down a little
Why do you want the pe800 when you have the multi needle machines with the magnetic hoops? Just curious 😎
I got it to help out a lot of my subscribers since it is the best starter machine
I am having trouble with my thread breaking and needing to rethread the needle. I am not sure why it keeps doing this. I have adjusted the tension, which has helped, but other than that???
i’m having the same problem but my machine also doesn’t embroidered as in the thread goes into the garment but once the needle comes back up nothing is on the garment does that make sense?
What do u think the tension should be for a crew neck?
yes!!!! i need to know this
Thank you
Hi ANGELA! What font is that?
Angela, I have question, I have the brother persona, just got it 1 week ago, and I work for a medical office. We want to embroider our logo. How can I do that??? Thx Giovanna
Send a file of the logo to a digitizer and they will digitize an embroidery file to you it will cost you a little bit but then you will have the file to embroider what you want.
They usually want a vector or svg of the logo so they change it into an embroidery file.
Lilpinkslip Lee thank you!! Is there a way I can do this myself?
MizGiMunoz if you want to do it yourself, you’ll need to get a digitizing software. They can run pretty expensive, up to $800-1000.
Kellie Hughes thank you for all info. I appreciate it
That's too much noise. Put a rubber slip mat under machine. Use a ball point needle for tshirt fabric. It sounds too noisy. Mine does that only if needle blunt or not a stretch needle.
I did not know you had to adjust the tension with embroidering
Yessssss very important!
How long did it take to get your machine? Ordered it thru EBay 2 months ago and still haven't received it! Is this normal for you?
I got mine off of amazon and it took 2 days.. usually shouldn't take more than 2 weeks. It must be coming from over seas

Can you do ordinary sewing?
Janine Bell she doesn't sew
Janine Bell This model only does embroidery. Brother and Singer offers models that can do sewing or embroidery
When you loosen the screw at the bottom and hoop the material, don't you have to tighten it before you start?
Usually yes but because it was the first time using it right out of the box it was tightened all the way so I had to loosen it to be able to use it
Do not use with my prewounds
The Brother Bobbin Center Pin converts smaller 9.4 "L" sized bobbins to fit 11.5 "15J" size bobbin machines. Mostly used with prewound bobbins.
I’ve had this machine for like 2wks and I haven’t been able to make anything successful
