What do you know about this site? I see several freebies, but just want to make sure it is legit. I'd appreciate input from you all. Hugs and Merry Christmas. http://www.embroideryshristi.com/

She is a member here as well as at other sites for quite a while; aka kaustubh. The company is located in India. Have never seen the designs offered elsewhere. I have NOT been overwhelmed with e-mails from this site; only weekly notices of new free designs, then a follow-up request to post a review of the design. Further insight can be obtained by reading the "Terms and Conditions."

I had never heard of it so went and had a look. I could download some free designs without giving my Email address but when I looked at the designs in my Embird program there were mistakes in the designs. I don't know if it was on purpose or not but looked at 2 and the left side didn't match the right where it should have been a mirror image. On the other a border design the top row stitched off centre. I would not like the end result on either of these. My theory is a free design is to show you how good the digitizing is so you will buy their designs after seeing this I would not buy. Just my opinion maybe I chose a bad selection of samples and someone else had a better experience.

I downloaded some beautiful designs from there, but at some point I became uncomfortable with their constant e-mailing, and decided the free designs were not worth the risk.

good to know. I noticed they are in India and I don't know how well they honor copyright.

I had the same feeling.
