Hi grammy, I have Embird 2006 Build 5 and am still investigating it. I have made many changes to patterns, delete stitches, rearrange stitches and change colors to suit wahat I want. I have digitized several patterns and made several of my own and am happy with the program. BUT I do need to really study using the program for digitizing but am very happy with it.

Asked and answered many, many times.

I use an old version of EMBIRD, 2003. And although it's old,I like it. I wanna save some money to upgrade it!

Hi Grammy,
I use Embird and I love it! You can try the 30 days trial on their website.

Have Embird Studio as well and although I don't do a lot of digitizing have given it a try and find it great to work with, certainly looks like the experts listed below agree...x0x0x0x

love it !!!
I have iconizer as well which puts an image of the design onto your thumbnails for you..
I did get Pe design with a machine I purchased last year.. I pur it on my pc.. But I much prefer embird
maybe because I am used to it :-)
Big hugs - Mooie xx

I use Embird 2010 and love it. As Meganne said, you can find many answers about Studio in 'software' on the left. Try out the trial version - which is exactly as the paid version, but you can't save the designs.

Father christmas bought it for me to my request but I haven't gone far with it. I resize design, I run the sew simulator and created some text. It's as far as I've been able to do !!
I saved on the side those sites to help me but I need time to go throw them.
I guess you need to learn a lot to use it and after it is fun according to my friends cuties.
Good luck
Cathie

I HAVE EMBIRD 2010. AND BECAUSE I AM NOT COMPUTER SAVEY I CANT US IT ,IT IS NOT AN EASEY SITE TO GET A ROUND ON,BUT THEN AGAINE I HAVE A HARD TIME ON IT,I ACUALEY HATE EMBIRD..BUT THAT ME,, LUCY

I've used Embird for 2-3 years and love it. Those that don't, as with any other tool, haven't spent the time learning how it operates.

I would strongly encourage you to go beyond the initial software investment and purchase some of the tutorials out there. You may as well get out of the program all that you can since it's not cheap. :-) Good luck!

I have it for 4 years, but now is when I started to realy play with it. I have done some very simple flowers and doodles I have a long way to learn.
