Embroidery Machines Lets Chat & Have Fun
#231
I have the Singer Futura CE250. I can use the xxx format is what the machine calls for but when I get designs from embroidery library they don't have the xxx so I get the hus format. I don't change it or worry about having to make it a different format. I use the hus format and it sews out great. I bought my Ce250 from HSN a little over 3 yrs ago and I just love it! I have used it a whole lot for towels, tshirts, baby blankets and you can see my unicorn quilt I will send in with this email. Some of you may have already seen it.

The Singer Futura machines do not use a memory card. You have to have this machine hooked up to your computer and have the design in a folder in your computer. The futura should have a disk with the program to download to your computer. Turn on the computer, hook the usb cord from the embroidery machine to the computer. Open the futura program on your computer and then turn on the sewing machine. In the futura program find the design you have saved in a folder on your computer and it will open in that program and then you can embroidewr the design....after you have put the hoop and fabric set up on the machine. May sound hard but it is not. You can not open up embroidery designs on your computer without a program to view them. Your computer does not normally have any program installed that will be able to view these files. If you have any questions just holler....I will try and help

A local Janome dealer told me to use serger thread in the bobbin, but do i
dont have every color in that kind of thread.

I have the same machine and I use it as much as I can. I just order the updated software for it. Didn't get the software that even sews your outfit for ya and then washes the car.. or it should for the money. But my machine came with a nice little program called Editor Lite. But while there are downloads to upgrade it to work with win 7, I still decided to more up to the Editor Plus. And while it was just under $1,000 including tax, it was still a heavy hit. But we know that there is the surge for better sand new soft ware and with in reason, we need to keep up.. if it's something we can get something out of it. I have the med, large and the maga hoop and it's a wonderful challenge to learn something new.

I'm attaching a couple of pictures of things I've done with mine. It's so much fun to make neat things with it.
