I can't help with your Singer, but I can sympathize. I wanted to make labels using my machine (Bernina 440QE with embroidery module) and always found that the software to make the lettering was awkward and time consuming. I wound up buying EQStitch, which is a module for EQ7 that provides a stitch-out of EQ designs. I haven't tried it yet, but I know it will be easier to use and will hopefully encourage me to (1) use the Bernina's embroidery module and (2) put labels on my quilts.
