What digitizing software to use?
I am a newbie to Embroidery Machines, getting my feet wet with a Brother SE350. While I know I can go out and begin purchasing embroidery files that others have made, but, well, I want to create my own.
I did get Embroidery Magic, but it's kind of confusing to use, though I'm getting better at it. Of course, I want something that converts automatically. I know that I have to pay more, but I don't want to purchase something only to find that it doesn't do what I want.
DRAWings4 looked like it could be a good program, and I was able to download an evaluation edition, but when I digitized a picture, it gave me more colors than I wanted. On one portion that had two colors where all I needed was one, I removed a portion, then was unable to get the vectors to move to where I wanted them. Upon reading more, it said something about needing a separate vector-manipulating program.
I'm just trying to get opinions on what others use. And maybe I shouldn't worry about creation of new designs - just use ones that I already have.
My problem is that I want it all and I want it now.
