Hi everyone I am new to this forum. I have two embroidery machines...janome 9500 and a pr650. I hope to learn more about the pr650 this machine is still very new to me. My favorite is applique designs. I just got a set of fast frames so I could use more knowledge on how to use these. thanks sheilajaneb

Hi and welcome to ATW! I know nothing about either of your machines but wanted to say welcome. Look forward to getting to know you thru the forum and seeing pictures of your work.

Welcome to ATW Sheila. I have a Janome 300E and love it. I'm guessing the fast frames are used on your PR650. I don't use them, but others on our site do so I'm guessing they'll be along with answers for you. What was your specific question about the fast frames? Sometimes if you do a search and use the subject matter of your question "fast frames", you might find previous postings about that subject. Someone suggested this yahoo group in a past post: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/PR600-EmbPro_Machines/ Della

Welcome, I love applique designs too. Don't have a big machine like you but I'm sure a lot of the members do and can help you with the frames...

Hi Sheila!

Welcome...
I have an EMP 6, the original version of the 6 needle by BabyLock. The Brother and BabyLock are twins you know... 8-)

What question do you have about the Fast Frames. I have used them, they are tricky because you MUST "trace" your design before stitching to be sure you will not hit the needle.
The machine will not recognize any after market frames. I use the Quick Snaps now with the magnets. I love them, but again, you need to trace the design before stitching.

Let me know if I can help...

Blessings and Welcome! Nope I can't help you but it looks like some folks are jumping in. I know nothing about fast frames either. Hope you get your information so you can show off your work in the Photo section!
