What embroidery software is everyone using lately? I used to use Embird, but it's been a long time since I've been able to use it. Wanted to see what the latest news was.

I have a Baby Lock Ellure.

Thank you!

I use Embrilliance.

Hm, I haven't heard about it. Will check it out! Thank you!

I use 5D software!!!

Would that work with my Baby Lock?

Babylocks Embroidery works everday/advanced(Embrilliance with all the add on's and babylock online classes). Love it, super easy to use

Grid paper and pencil. lol

Most software now saves in all formats - except Bernina's ART at times. You can use whatever you like.

I have all Babylock Designers Gallery and I have a Pfaff 2170.

All machines will accept EXP format. You just have to remember to print out the color guide as EXP is digitized as color stops only.

I use 4D and love it

if you are already experienced with Embird, why not just buy upgrades? It might be less expensive than a whole new program...and the learning curve that would go with it. I, personally, could never figure out Embird...I use PE Design v5, plus several free programs....Pulse Ambassador, My Editor, and Thumbnailer for viewing so I don't have to open a program to see the image.
