When was the first home embroidery machine available for sale? Was it before 1992, pease? I am trying to learn about the history of machine embroidery and I was wondering what year did the home embroidery machine become available, please? What brand was that? I am aware of the Pfaff, Viking & Janome in 1992, but I was wondering what was the date of the first home embroidery machine & what brand was it? Further, what was the year of the first commercial embroidery machine? Was it around 1980? I've tried to find this info on the web and have been unsuccessful. Thanks! JosyMaude Machine Embroidery Designer & Enthusiast! I was wondering when the first hooped robatic machine embroidery was available for home users? In the 60's my Aunt had the Singer with the cams that did do fancy embroidery stitches and my Kenmore had cams also. But, these 60's machines did NOT do machine embroideries in the hoop. I was wondering what year did the first robatic hooped home machine come available and what company started it for the home? In 1992 or 1994, I became aware of Janome that embroidered in a 4 X 4 inch hoop. Yet, I suspect that there were machines earlier thna Janome, such as the POEM or maybe Singer had a embroidery only machine...maybe before the 90's but maybe around the early 80's...in 80 or '82, IBM had the 86 PC. So, my question to sum it up, is when did the home embroidery machine (robotics-hooped embroidery) become available and what company started it, please? I also wonder what year dis the Commercial embroidery machine become available and was it hooked to a mainframe? Thanks!
