Maybe someone has software to convert a design for me or can direct me to a site that can do it? I need the free files from this site http://www.designsinstitches.com/Free_Sashiko.htm converted to .exp and I don't know how to go about it:< I used to have some conversion software, but it was old and I know it didn't convert to the newer .exp Bernina format. Thanks for any help.

The free download is on the far right. This is the one I use all the time to convert files.

When you download the free program first it gives you an advertisement then the program comes up,, Go to the file folder icon at the top and it will give you a list of what you can convert from and to. Yes it does do exp.

Do you know if Melco .EXP is the same as the .EXP currently running on newer Bernina machines? This stuff can be so confusing. And I guess Mac conversion software is too much to ask for...
I've also found some downloads for "StitchBuddy" that works on Mac.
