I wiped out my companies storage files of all their old, no longer used, floppy disks. Got a usb floppy read/write for $14 and a box of plain white labels and now I format, save, label and store in plastic, lidded boxes labeled according to subject matter, example "animal" "kitchen" etc. I only save to disk designs I actually use although I have tons saved on my computer waiting for their chance. I also digitize my own drawings as well [see S&S Computing, Sew Art]. I adore my designer 1 but I do have one question. Does anybody know how to get a chain stitch in free-motion with this machine?
