Sewing & Embroidery Question!!!?
My mom bought an embroidery machine and we are having trouble figuring out something.
She has a Futura Singer Design software disk, but she thought she could make her own designs, and these are premanufactured designs.
I tried and tried, and I have no idea how to import new ones, so if anyone is familiar with this program, let me know!
And if you know of any other softwares out there that you can install on Windows and design your own, let me know!
[ use a MAC, but most of these programs don't take MAC and Windows is pretty weird for me......]
Thanks in advance!!!!
From their website, it looks as though the Singer software is a basic layout and conversion software. There is a support link – I would try to get some help there first.
DigitizerPro is a software through Janome that lets you digitize designs. You can create your own designs from clip art, photos, or from scratch. It is also a conversion software (change to the format your machine takes). The software allows for a direct link to your machine, too, so transfering designs is easy. I have an older version, Digitizer 10000. I love it!
I know Bernina and Viking both have softwares available, though I have not worked with those. Most manufacturers have a software of somekind that can do at least basic digitizing. These can all be expensive, so take your time and take notes and compare before buying.
I hope you find the answers you’re looking for.
Good Luck!
