I'm not computer savy! I have alot of designs that are duplicates. Is there a way I can organize my designs into catgories, such as, flowers, babies and etc.? I appreciate your help.

This isn't an answer. I am in the same boat. I have hundreds of designs downloaded, no clue as to what some of them are. I also want to know how to fix this. Thnkx!

Go to Sands Computing, there is a program called Sew Iconz, for about $25, I think. This will show you pictures of your designs, like in "My Photos" the thumbnail view shows you pictures of your photos in the folders. Good luck, Marji

iris gave you a wonderful link. and yes it's easy if you make different folders for; flowers, animals, texts, kitchen etc. it's easier if you're looking for a design.

If you don't want to buy a program you can set them up on your own. I use 4D Extra for my software program. I created a folder called "My Designs". Inside that I just created a folder to correspond to the subjects of designs, ie- alphabet, birds, bookmarks, butterflies and etc. Inside of each of those you can make additional folders- ex- FSL bookmarks, fabric bookmarks, in-the-hoop inside of the bookmark folder. It takes time to start. If you come across a design that doesn't fit one you have then just create a new folder for that topic.
