does anyone know why all the new designs are larger now. some of us can only use a 4x4 design. Reducing would make it bad I guess. Thanks

I have a viking it's 4x4 design and I do have embird.I love the new bunny designs but I didn't think I could reduce the size without messing the design up.Not sure what 20% would be in size

The results from resizing depend on the software you use. Most good designs can be resized up or down 20% without distorting the design. There are several free software programs that do a great job of this if you don't already have that capability. My 4D has no problem resizing. Maybe someone with one of the free programs can point you in the right direction. I believe one is Wilcom, and also Pulse Ambassador. I have never used them so don't know how well they work.

Maryjo, Embird is good ?????

I have never used Embird. As I said my 4D software does everything I need so I have never bothered with any other software.

I don't know but I have a 4x4 combo sewing machine and a 5x7 embroidery. ;D *2U

i dont know what kind of sewing machine you have but i can reduce and enlarge up to 2 inches without any problems but to be on the safe side i would say you could reduce at least 1 inch with no problems your machine should take out the stiches with out any problems hope it helps mary

wish they were offered in 2 different sizes
