That will require that I modify any embroidery file for it to look right.
I purchased EQStitch, but I can't figure out how to import an embroidery file into it so that I can modify it. I'm still on the learning curve (huge).
I see a few quilt designs in EQSTITCH for quilting, but not many and none that will work with my quilt.
Any ideas or assistance is very appreciated.
I use Embird for editing embroidery files. Mostly for adding thread color changes so I get a jump stitch in a pattern. It has a way to split an embroidery file, but I don't know enough to help anyone do it. I have, also, resized the files, mostly on PES files.
