These are digital machine embroidery design NOT a finished product. You must own an embroidery machine. You must know how to unzip your files and transfer files to your machine.

Our designs are manually digitized and test stitched before release. For best results we recommend stitching our designs unaltered on projects hooped with stabilizer appropriate for the material being used. We cannot guarantee results when our designs have been modified in software or non-traditional hooping methods are used. We highly recommend doing a test stitch on an altered design before putting it on a valuable blank. That being said, we are often asked for a recommendation for embroidery editing software for customizing purposes:
Where hoop sizes are mentioned, we are referring to standard hoop sizes: 4x4 (100mm x 100mm) 5x7 (130mm x 180mm) 6x10 (160mm x 260mm) 8x8 (200mm x 200mm) 7x12 (180mm x 300mm) 8x12 (200mm x 300mm) 9.5x14 (240mm x 360mm) 10.5x16 (272mmx408mm)
Due to the numerous types of embroidery machines and software programs available, we are unable to offer technical support for machine or software questions. Please refer to your machine manufacturer's manual or software's help feature if you have questions.
