My first suggestion would be to search here using the 'Embird', 'tip/s', 'software' and 'help' tags on the left side of the page as many of the previous posts answer many q's about Embird and there is so much help out there for it, it's impossible to remember everything. LOL!
Hope this suggestion helps, hugs n roses, M

Good on you!!!! Can`t help with how to use it but here is a flower 4 u anyway.....

Missi at Skeldale House has some free Embird tutorials. I don't have Embird (yet) but I have done some of her tutorials for Pfaff software, and she is clear, informative and generous with her informatin. She also has a Yahoo group with more information and some free samples. See links below.

I purchased Carolyn Keber's tutorials off of secretsof... she is a fabulous teacher! She will teach you the CORRECT way to use the tool and digitize... (before you develop bad habbits). lol... Good luck! Glad you're part of the Embird family. It's an AWESOME program.

Fabulous!!!! I use Janome Digitizer Pro, not Embird, but others have given you good info on that. You will just **love*** to digitize! Seeing stuff in you head end up on a shirt or quilt is so creative & satisfying!!! I'm so happy for you! Marji
