You might want to take a look at a product called Embrilliance. I believe they offer a 30 day free trial, the "essentials" product to you started is much less costly than most, it is compatible with all sorts of machine formats, and runs on a Mac or PC. I bought it a couple of years ago when my old Bernina software didn't work on my upgraded Windows. It works great, but I've been spending most of my time quilting, so haven't learn it thoroughly yet.
