Hi, jrob, I have Brothers PED vs 7. It is great for auto or manual digitizing. I have Pfaff creative, have it quite a while, it is excellent for cross stitch. Probably the most difficult one I used was MagicEmbroidery2. Not because it was hard but because it was so difficult to find a good tutorial. I guess you can do your work in most any program and then convert it to what ever you need, if it doesn't have your format built in. Thanks for all your answers and have a happy new year! Freida A

Sorry, I might have been a little off base with my comment. Just wanted to talk and say thanks for everything you and cutiepie do for everyone.

Dunno, Jrob, but it does great on my Janome 300E, too. It's such a relief to hoop up for one of these designs and know it's just going to work. I sewed out that pretty sitting long hair cat three times just for 'fun'. Try that one with varigated thread, by the way, it's so cool. This digitizer is one heck of an artist. Happy New Year, everyone.
