That is a lovely quilt and I love the idea of incorporating embroidered blocks with the rest of the quilt. Just purchased a Baby Lock Ellure machine in April, but so far have only embroidered with it.

Am I doing something wrong? I downloaded all the design from Tuckers Treasurers and got hundreds of designs. My problem is to get rid of all the formats I don't need. The only way I can see to do this is open each design and delete unwanted formats. That will take forever. Is there another way?

If you had THUMBNAILER, or a similar software, the images in your format would show and you could delete the rest. Otherwise, I only know to R-click then open 'properties' of ea to find your format. After you find it (say it's the 5th in the row)--then start the next search at the 5th icon to see if it's yours. For each design can be tedious. There are some free softwares that might help...Pulse Ambassador will let you set to 'open' only your format; Wilcom might (I've never used it). Maybe someone else has better advice.

That is pretty much what I was starting to do also.
But gave up now I am "rethinking" how I want to go about
it.
Although in the past what I have done is "extract" ALL my
zip files into the folder I saved them in once they had all
been extracted I "sorted" by file type.
From there I highlight and cut (or copy) JUST the format
I want/need to another folder and do the same for any other
files I want to keep such as jpg images or pdf/text files that
may have any special instructions.
Once I remove those files than I save the zip file to another
for "burning" to a disc to keep a "backup" copy or memory
stick if you have extra of them (I have a total of 15 jump drives
from 1gig up to 32gig).
Of course I KNOW there has to be better and/or easier ways
of doing things, but for now this works for me.
