    Thanks for the tutorial. This software has a few of issues? One, when I went to change the hoop under my machine it didn't list my hoop size, so I had to create a custom size hoop, then when I went to export the file to the USB stick it didn't come up, it only had two options where to save. When I eventually copied the the file over to the USB stick my machine showed a greyed out image and said it was corrupt did I want to delete it, I said yes? Can you please explain why this has happened. Thank you.

    Thanks for this. It looks great. Question: on a fleece with this height of pile, do you think a knockdown underlay would be overkill? Some fleet is really flat, but this vest is a little more plush. I ask because I’m about to embroider my business logo on some work fleeces and they are similar to this vest. Or would that be something reserved more for towels, etc?

It's insane considering that we've already paid them for their software. Do I need to have more than 1 character in the name for each letter for the lower case? I see that you have a letter u after each uppercase letter.

      In theory, yes. You have to have stitch artist level 3, but don't expect them to tell you how to do it. They will not tell you how unless you have been selling fonts for over a year online. How can you sell online if you can't create to sell online? My question exactly!
