Hi Aren...are you talking about patterns you purchased here at Cute or somewhere else...If you purchased them here on Cute, did you buy a 6 month Membership...or purchase a individual design? It makes a difference on how we can respond to help you...Also BIG WELCOME to Cute...

Dragonflyer is right. We need more info in order to help.
Welcome to Cute. Looks as if you are a newbie around here.

When you say patterns do you mean embroidery designs?
If you can answer the questions asked below this comment it would help others to guide you through the process.
What computer system are you using ( which Windows or Mac)
Where did you buy patterns from?
Are you going to the download section of the site?
There are some very good computer people here that can guide you through just give them the information they need.
Put your answer in this same post so it all stays together.

Yes need more info, please

Do you still need help or did you solve your problem?

Moving this to the top. Hoping you will see it and let us know if you still need help,

Welcome to our great site, there is a wealth of knowledge here so don't be afraid to ask. No question is a silly question. Marian/Sydney Australia
