Have an embroidery machine, want info on how to put my own ideas onto garments?
The embroidery machine is brother 190-d using a memory card, but as i can download free patterns or use my own want to know how.
By reading another persons answer to a different question I have just found a great site for you to look at. It has a list of sections on machine embroidery, and has a section on exactly what you want. Its called digitising step by step. There are also many things that it will clarify for you which you can do with your machine.
