Embroidery software used to be too expensive and complicated for individual use. But as personal computers have increased in popularity, embroidery software has become easier to use and more affordable.
Even though it has become easier to use, finding the right embroidery software can be very confusing. You may see many different components that are part of the same embroidery software package, with little explanation of what they actually do, or why you would need them. In addition, each manufacturer combines functions slightly differently, so it is often hard to compare packages to each other. Trying to find what you need starts to feel more like a chore than enjoyment.
The links below will help you understand the types of embroidery software available, what they do and how to find the best embroidery software for your needs. Each of these links has a lot of information, so read a little bit at a time. Take some time to absorb what you’ve learned, and then come back again when you’re ready for more!
