Poolin EOC05 Embroidery Machine | Poolin Embroidery Machines

A reassuring way to start embroidery properly

The POOLIN EOC05 is designed for people who want to get into machine embroidery with confidence — without feeling overwhelmed, oversold to, or out of their depth.

If you’ve been sewing for a while and are ready to add embroidery, or you’re brand new and want something that feels proper rather than toy-like, the EOC05 is a brilliant place to start. It’s beginner-friendly, but not limiting — giving you room to learn, experiment, and grow at your own pace.

This is often chosen as a first serious embroidery machine, especially by people who want support, guidance, and a machine that feels capable from day one.

Who the EOC05 suits best

The EOC05 is a great fit if you:

• Are buying your first embroidery machine

• Want something intuitive and forgiving while you learn

• Enjoy making personalised gifts, clothing, and home items

• Are testing the waters with small paid projects or a side hustle

• Value having real people to talk to if you need help

If you already know you’ll be working on larger designs or using your machine very regularly, you may also want to look at the POOLIN EOC06, which offers a bigger embroidery area and more long-term headroom.

What you can realistically create

With the EOC05, customers commonly use it for:

• Personalised clothing and accessories

• Gifts such as cushions, bags, and baby items

• Small logo work

• Craft projects and home décor

The generous embroidery area means you’re not constantly re-hooping, and the clear touchscreen interface helps you build confidence quickly — even if embroidery software feels intimidating at first.

Key features (and why they matter)

Generous embroidery area – 4 × 9.25 inches

Large enough for most everyday projects, with both a 4 × 9.25 inch hoop and a 4 × 4 inch hoop included. This gives you flexibility for both detailed and larger designs without unnecessary complexity.

7-inch colour touchscreen

The clear LCD screen works much like a smartphone, making it easy to select, resize, and position designs without endless menu diving.

Institch i2 computer system

A straightforward, beginner-friendly system that lets you combine designs, add lettering, and work with multiple colours — helping shorten the learning curve.

Built-in designs and fonts

Includes 96 designs, 8 lettering fonts, and support for 10 languages, so you can stitch your first projects straight away.

Use your own designs

Create designs in embroidery software, save them in DST or DSB format, and load them via USB. Simple, flexible, and future-proof.

Time-saving automatic features

Automatic needle threading, bobbin winding, and thread trimming take the frustration out of setup and colour changes.

Everything you need to get started

The EOC05 arrives as a true starter package, including:

• 6 reels of polyester embroidery thread

• Pre-wound multi-coloured bobbins

• Stabiliser

• 90/14 needles (ideal for fabrics up to 4 mm thick — heavier fabrics may require coarse needles)

Delivery – what to expect

These machines arrive with us in regular batches, usually every couple of weeks. Orders are dispatched in the order they’re placed.

We don’t always receive a firm delivery date in advance, but as soon as machines arrive, yours will be sent out on next working day delivery. Ordering sooner simply secures your place in the next available batch.

Support you can rely on

Buying an embroidery machine can feel daunting — you won’t be left to figure it out alone.

• You can contact Fabric Mouse by phone or chat if you need help choosing or getting started

• Many customers meet us at shows or demos before buying

• You’ll also have access to the Poolin user community and online tutorials for ongoing learning

Support is there when you need it, from people who actually know the machines.

A confident first step into embroidery

The POOLIN EOC05 is about making embroidery feel achievable and enjoyable from the very beginning. It’s a machine that builds confidence, encourages creativity, and gives you a solid foundation without pressure.
