A New Class!
"Do I have to have software to get the designs onto my embroidery machine?"
This is a frequently asked question and the answer is a resounding yes and no. Yes, there are machines out there that you do have to have some software to enable you to get the designs to them in the language the machine understands. But for the most part, no you do not need software. This class will teach you how to get the designs to your computer (in the correct language) and then to your embroidery machine.
