I have a baby lock Ellisomo which uses the same format as brothers. If you want more info PM me I thousands of designs. I put on a external hard drive and as I need them move them on to a flash drive, then take them to my Ellisimo and stitch them out. I would be glad to help you get started.

I would be glad to email you some pictures of things that I have embroidered.

If you have windows on your computer it will unzip your downloaded embroidery files and you can put them on your zip drive and plug that into the machine. I would go on www.sewforum.com. There are a lot of embroidery people on that forum with a section dedicated to just embroidery. I wouldn't put your email on forums like this because they are public and you can attract a lot of spam. It is always best to just pm someone with your questions. as for the open toe plate it is a new attachment for the muvit foot that allows more and it has 1/4 inch markings on it.its like having an open toes walking foot. I have already used it the part is sa195 you can get it from kenssewingcenter.com shipping is always free. There are some free programs to download to view your embroidery files. I have software so can't remember what they are, but almost all softwares have a free 30day trial so take advantage of that. embird is the cheapest with the most features. I have pe design plus, have only used it once, the only benefit I can see is it comes with the card reader so I can buy brother cards if and when I want. you can get pe basic for 100 off of many websites, which just allows you to view your designs and comes with a card reader. pe design plus has a few more features but you will not be able to digitize like embird and embird is a few hundred dollars cheaper

format
 

i need to convert designs from floppy hus format to pes format do you know what I need thank you for being so kind I am not too swift when it comes to do this kind of work.

You don't need special software, the things I have found that I did need was a external hard drive to keep all my designs on. As far as downloading designs, you need to have unzip on your computer, I have a couple on small programs to be able to see what the design looks like, and there are a couple others out there that can resize or do others things to help you. One is called Embird, you can review that on line and also download a trail version before buying it. I have thousands of design on my external hard drive, there are a lot of free ones out there, also embroidery library is a great place to check out, they often have sales where you can get them for around a dollar or so.
If you have I any questions you can PM me.

Shrabar, I sent you a PM
