I have recently been lots of in the hoop projects, especially cosmetic cases from Pegboard Crafts and I love doing these. My question is what kind of software would I need to be able to design similiar bags myself? I have Embird and Iconizer, but none of the other plug-ins. Would I be able to do this with Embird"
Thanks,

I would be interested in learning how to design these as well. I have 4D Extra. There is definitely a lot of thought that goes into these types of designs. :)

I’ve tried Embird before and it’s pretty good for embroidery work, but if you want to go beyond plug-ins and start adding your own twist to cosmetic bag designs, you might need something with more flexibility for editing files and graphics. I’ve found that using an easy video or photo editor to plan out the layout and color ideas really helps if you’re new to making your own patterns. Visualizing your concepts first makes the actual stitching part smoother and less stressful.
