  • Re: So lost!!!!!

    I understand. You cannot do an "add" or "merge" with another design, i.e., letter then add the frame in the machine. What I do (I have a 10 needle but sometimes have to use the PE770) is to carefully make sure that both my designs are centered. I always use metric. It takes some time...

  • Re: So lost!!!!!

    Ken Parson has one of the least expensive and best software that I personally have used. It has a large number of Monograms built right into the software. You can find many frames here as well. I like Anna Bovee for monograms. They are currently on sale for as little as $2.50 for whole sets. You do NOT...

  • Re: Embroidering an Arch

    If I understand your question, you are trying to manipulate a shape into something else. To my knowledge, that is not really a good idea. You couldd make an "O" from an arc, but that would be about it. If you are relatively new to embroidery, you need to read, read, and then read. There is...

  • Re: Brother se 400 or pe 770?

    Thank you for your input! I mainly wanted the se 400 for the sewing component (it'll be space saving and cost less, but I'm sure I'll grow out of it!) I don't really plan on starting any kind of business but I'm sure the gifts I will make will entice those friends/family to want me...

  • Re: Issues with PE 700II

    I remember when I first started, I wanted big lettering. I purchased them, and frankly, they have never been used. First, you are working with a monogram, not a font. The difference is that monograms are for lettering and fonts are mostly for lettering/words. For instance, you would not use a monogram...

  • Lettering, Fonts, Monograms and all that jazz!

I have downloaded sever fonts but I can't figure out for the life of me how to get them into my machine...

  • Re: PE770 - Newbie!

    There is much to learn grasshopper newbie - welcome to the wonderful world of machine embroidery! Keep in mind that the computer on your embroidery machine is not a computer in the same sense of your PC. The computer on the machine is just to tell the machine how to embroider and a few things, like resizing...

  • Re: Tracing design without sewing

    You might consider using the 'frames' group Brother has already built into your machine. Place your fabric and the place where you will be entering the letter, and use the 'square frame' with a single line. Enter your letter into the machine as if you were ready to sew. Place the square...

  • Re: font cd

    You may want to clarify what you are looking for. CDs with monograms and designs are available almost anywhere. It is recommended that when you download monograms and/or designs that you do back them up on CDs or USB Drives. Buying a monogram set on a CD would be in the $80 to $100 range for 8 to 10...

  • Re: Monograms/alphabets

    PattiAnn is right, you are a little unclear on what you really need. That problem probably stems from your newness at machine embroidery. We all have been where you are, be patient and I demand that you are patient NOW! A PED-Basic program generally comes with a blank card. The blank card won't help...
