#FREE EMBROIDERY SOFTWARE FOR BABYLOCK HOW TO#
In the end, I got it right even if it took me forever! The author has a very good tutorial on how to do exactly this, and it works, but the process is too long to describe here. I used the module for its digitizing capabilities exactly once, when I needed to digitize my logo.

The program is also offered for a free trial for a limited time, you can try it, and if you do not like it, nothing lost – simply delete it and that’s that. The price I mentioned is only informational, the author has frequent sales and the price therefore varies.
When I bought the program the first time ( I think I bought it twice, I ended up with two licenses, for my two active computers) there was no viewer, so I only have the first two modules: EDS Design and Converter. I think if I go to the movies, I will spend more, and I definitely have less fun at the movies than I have at my sewing desk! The price? Around $25 for all three, something I can appreciate, and under $10 for the viewer alone. They have three programs now, a designer, a viewer / convertor, and a simple viewer. Data 7 Consultancyīut I still needed a viewer, and for a long time I went through a number of alternatives, none of them satisfactory, until sometimes in 2014 I think this came to my attention: Data 7 Consultancy. I missed so much the capability to see the designs at a glance that I seriously considered shelling out the big $$$ to purchase a newer license, but then I remembered the difficulty to use it, I realized I will never design my own embroidery – much cheaper and faster to buy, so I came to my senses. That version of Embird no longer worked when I upgraded my computers, and I needed a replacement. You need a PhD degree in Embird to use it! But its add-on module “Iconizer” was what I liked most, because it allowed me to see at a glance the contents of an embroidery file, without opening the file. I bought an older version, without the option to upgrade, and I remember that even in its simple version from 15+ years ago I found it baffling.

No matter how you start, in time you will end up with thousands, perhaps tens of thousands, of designs and of course finding the right one for a project will be a big issue.Įmbird was expensive its initial price plus its add-on modules were a good 5 or 6 hundred dollars. I have seen on eBay offers for USB sticks with 260,000 designs (yes, two hundred sixty thousand!), or you can buy individual designs as needed from specialized companies for a couple of dollars.
Some time ago I talked to my friends in our sewing group in Naples, FL about this program, and every single one of them had difficulties believing me: how can one sell for $20 that which, if you buy from Brother, sells (PE Design) for well over $1000? But as I said: there IS such a thing as cheap embroidery software. I remember using an early version of Embird, and the main usage I got out of that program was to SEE what designs are on the disk. When I started in embroidery, many, many years ago, there were very few commercial programs and those had limited features.
