I appreciate your video! Thanks for not cutting out the error you caught! Too many videos make it look effortless! I’m looking at purchasing a multi-needle. I’m surprised the machine software you showed apparently doesn’t have a “center in the hoop” feature …? Even my slow single needle has that with the option to manually override placement. Does the BAI? It’s so helpful to me. Thx!
Yes. I know that I have not explored all features, but the re-centering is one thing that I have not found an option for other than manually using the arrows
Nice Video!!!! And Happy New Year 2024!!!! Could I use, as one of my stabilizers, a medium wight water soluble stabilizer instead of the fusible one. I nthat fashion, there would not be anything in the inside of the Hoodie. Thanks for your advice!!!!
Thank you and Happy New Year! I have never tried any type of water soluble for stabilizing garments, so I am not sure that would work. I have used tear away and it works, but I like the cut away because it helps to keep the form a little better. But if you try the wash away, let me know how it turns out and which brand you use.
Have you ever tried using knock down stitches instead of the film? I’m a novice but I’ve seen others do that. Just curious. I use Dawn to remove oil stains. Once I had some clothe on a chair and it was under my machine and the garment wicked up the oil. Folix and Krud Kutter also work well on stains. Folix is a spot cleaner for carpet/upholstery and Krud Kutter comes full strength and can be used full strength or diluted. You can use it all around your home.
HI! I don't use knock down stitches on sweatshirts. I do use them on towels, blankets and thing with higher pile so that the stitches don't get lost or sink into it. Yes, I have and do use the Dawn dish liquid and it works great for re moving oil. I have not tried Folix and/or Krud Kutter. I will have to look into those. Thank you!!!
I’ve been looking at multi needle embroidery machines and they can be quite expensive and way out of my price range. The BAI looks like a win on the price point. If you had your do it all over again would you still buy it?
Honestly, had I done my research, I would have waited a few months to get the Bai Mirror M22. It has an even bigger stitch field. But would I had still gotten a Bai? Yes, I would have.
Awe... yeah. It isn't an overly noisy machine... my Tajima Sai is louder but I don't think I would run it in an apartment unless on the 1st level and in a room that doesn't have a shared wall. I have mine set up on the first floor that is tiled in and on a slab foundation, so there is not a lot of vibration, but it can still be "heard" a little in other rooms, but not so much upstairs.
Look up videos on sound panels. Base Traps and foam panels on the wall for noise cancellation. Get rubber mat to absorb vibrations underneath machine. Foam panels work amazing and you can have a dead noise room where not much of sound will escape. I’ve done this to set up a music recording room in a apartment.
@SouthernAudacity I was thinking about purchasing one and was looking for some feedback. Take care of yourself, and I'll be sure to watch out for the tutorials 😊

Love the logo sticker on your embroidery machine.
Thank you
I’m so glad that I’m not the only one that has made that mistake. I second guess myself a lot.
Nope... we all make them...lol

looking at the BAi Embroidery Machine Multi Needle Mirror 1501 would you recommend?
I like my BAi...but I also like my Tajima Sai...and my Brother...lol as long as the machine works, I am an "equal opportunity stitcher"...lol
Great job!
I’m so tempted to get one, but I live in an apartment complex and afraid the neighbors will complain about the noise

Thank you and Merry Christmas to you!
Do you still have your BAI machine?
Yes. I do still have it and use it. I have been slacking on videos.... My apologies. Life is doing what life does.

OK !!!
