Is that the one that also has the quilting with it? I pre-registered for it in Oct. this yr.!

From what I have read it will mostly be about the new quilting
software. But you still get the free stabilizer, designs, thread and
such.

I watched a webinar video about the quilting software, but I am
not interested in the quilting stuff as much as I am in the embroidery.

I have been looking for at least ONE of my memory cards for weeks.
I have 4 cards (rewritable kind) and when I removing everything from
the sewing room to set up the new desk I misplaced the cards.

Since I have YET to finish in the fabric room and organize all that stuff
PLUS the stuff that came from the sewing room I know the cards are
in a box somewhere in there.

But darn it I can't embroider with my smaller machine because I HAVE
to use a card for my designs. So until I can find at least one of the cards
I am forced to using only the bigger machine since I can connect it to the
computer (netbook).

I have some towels, and bibs to get made plus finish a few mug rugs for
a friend.

Procrastination stinks (so does the lack of energy to clean).

LOL

Hope y'all are having a good day.

Quilty-Louise I truly understand you. It took me weeks until I found my memory card and the stinker was right behind my machine, go figure:D

Ok, I am sooooo new to doing this; just acquired a Bernette Decco 340 to do an outline embroidery of an outline of a guitar for a BIL on 120 squares he pre-cut. Only to discover I need to acquire the software from Bernina that's twice the price of the machine, to download my picture into the system...to say the least, I am not a happy camper at the moment.

Nor would she take it back even though its never been used here, for I was waiting to acquire the pattern first. Anyone have a solution? Thanks for the possibilities of some one having an answer.

This is not for editing but it is good embroidery software and it is free...used to have to pay for it. Anyway you might be able to find a similar guitar outline and use this software to transfer it to your machine...not fancy but still good and it works well.

I have the Bernina 440EQ with the embroidery arm. The software that comes with this machine is not user friendly, it uses ART format, but once edited, it will stitch our a PES format. Any editing that I do, I use SewWhatPro

My daughter just called me and said that she got me registered

for my birthday, and for the past week she had been playing phone
tag with them trying to get me registered.

I am so excited and can't wait.

I attended one in May, it was fabulous! Sooo much information, and the " gift box" (not really a gift since you pay to go) is full of stabilizer, thread, designs, and a wonderful cd about stabilizer. Take a credit card because if they offer the same products at this show as when I went, you will wear the numbers off your card. The boxed stabilizers are at a tremendous price. And the software is fantastic. All the updates are free! And no dongle as with other software. I had such a good time. Go and have fun, congratulation!

Bneighbor thanks for the info! I can't wait myself to go in Oct. I'm going to put my time in early so I can go on a Friday since this year is only thurs. and fri.
