Background

Many people have expressed interest in using an embroidery machine and I think getting a new one that has more capabilities will be better for the space. I have researched many different machines and have decided the Brother Persona PRS100 Single Needle Free Arm Embroidery Machine is the best for how PS1 works. It has a simple user interface that many people can use and does not require software yay! It also comes with different attachments that you can embroider onto hats, and clothing, make patches and even quilt on.

The machine costs $5,000 https://www.kenssewingcenter.com/32549-brother-persona-prs100-single-needle-embroidery-machine-3.html

Language of the Vote

Authorize the Board of Directors to spend up to $5500 to buy a Brother Prs100 Embroidery Machine and supplies for the machine.
