To Monogram or Not?

My sewing machine is broken, sigh. It is time to buy a new one and I've been tossing back and forth getting a machine that will also do embroidery. I love the Pottery Barn Kids look that has everything monogrammed:

Isn't that sweet? So. . . is it worth the extra money? Could I charge people to monogram things and that would help pay for my machine? Will I loose steam when the next new thing comes along and then I'm stuck with a machine wanting something new? These are the questions I think about in the middle of the night (why don't I sleep?).

On a side note, it seems as if everyone has vinyl lettering around here. Very cute way to decorate without it being permanent. There are some cute little ones at http://www.vinylwallart.com/. I love the trees and the little animals. You might want to check it out!

Have a Great Day.

I say go for the monogram. There have been times that I wished I had one. You could probably charge people here and there, or make things are sell them too. That is a fad that goes in and out but the new machines do some pretty cool things.

Laurel, I really like the vinyl art stuff but you need to check your link. I think you have one too many ://. I would love to put a crown in Hayden's room because she is our little princess.
