do so they will still be OK to use? They say no more than 20% from what I have heard. Anyone know if they would size down to fit 4x4 nicely?

I was told when I bought my Elna embroidery machine to never increase/decrease size of design by any more than 20%

Hello Debra (and Sarah ;-),
Katulle is uploading her designs in the meantime in many sizes so I think she is a very helpful person who knows about the limitation with a small hoop. The other thing is the trick to rotate the design a littel bit if it doesn't fill the hole frame.
Hope this helps you a little bit :o)
Greetings, Bettina

Thanks Bettina, you are always there when I need help. Some of them are just too big but I see what you mean on rotating, I did a few like that several months ago that made them fit. I'll give a try to some.

Hi Debra, You and I are in the same boat. The designs you are talking about cannot be reduced by Trusizer to the extent needed for 4x4. I tried the other day and although it went to less than 20%, I know if it were stitched out it would be a disaster. A big shame as some of the designs are lovely. Sarah.

I know, bummer right? I know some of them would be very dense and make a mess.

I know my Ped Basic Box will only increase or decrease 20% so that says something.

Yeah, I feel like we are losing out on those and the digitizer is making so many designs!
