When you download digital designs from the internet, look for the specific design format for your machine. This collection has wonderful designs that are perfect not only for clothing, but for just about anything you can imagine! The designs have the perfect combination of light fills and unique outline stitches. I just downloaded this new collection from Scissortail STITCHES called Boho Soul.

The three letter extension at the end of the design name denotes the format. Many embroidery machines will read more than one format, but there is usually a preferred format which is dependent on the machine make and model. If the design is not in the correct format, the design will not show on the machine screen and cannot be accessed. In order for your embroidery machine to read a design and stitch it out, that design must be in the readable format specific to your machine. But if you download digital designs or purchase on CD media, you will need to transfer designs in the specific format that your machine uses. If you purchased designs or design collections in USB media and your machine is able to read directly from a USB stick, that is very convenient since you are ready to go. Most embroidery machines will be able to read directly from a USB stick.

Whether you purchase online and download, or purchase designs or design collections on media such as USB sticks or CDs, you will need to get them into the embroidery machine. When you purchase an embroidery machine, most will come with built-in designs that are easy to access and ready to stitch, and that’s great! But there are so many “perfect” designs to choose from for purchase.
