Not interested in digitizing,but would like to 'arrange' my design on the computer before it's sent to sewing machine. Any cuties know of a suitable free program that will do that. Thankyou.

It would help to know what machine you have.If you have a Janome you can do it in your Customiser.
Does your machine not have software that came with it in which you can do this?
Do you mean sort your designs in folders? You don't need software for that. Just make new folders and/or subfolders and sort your designs in those.
Or did you mean combine several designs to make one picture?

I just right click and make a folder and then sub folders within that folder and so on. I do have Ped-basic which puts designs onto a card that I use in my machine for the designs but I still have to use many folders. Some are just generic things and others are more specific, like FSL/FSL ornaments/FSL doily, etc. Have fun, I have to organize mine over and over so I know what I have and I still don't know!

Do not know quite what you mean. I have a feeling that you might be talking about rotating and mirroring your designs? I have a free version of Wilcom Truesizer e1.5 - it is great for doing simple things. Good luck. *4U

yes, moving the design and perhaps adding some text. My machine is Pfaff 2140,has the ability to do this on it's screen. But it's small and I thought it would be good to do it on computer first.
