Hi ha1flosse, Sorry I have not replied to your post but been busy and time has flown. I have just posted a short message with a link to an example of my most recent work here: http://www.inkscapeforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=32063 From my experience over the years with all the surprises a desig...

I posted some months ago in a thread that I use Inkscape to draw designs I later digitise in an embroidery program. At the time I was working on something I could not share but I have now been doing some work for myself and I thought I would share how Inkscape works for me. I decided a while back I ...

After lots of compari...

I've been reading this post with interest. I've been doing machine embroidery for over 20 years - first digitising software was DOS based and it is great to see that somebody has finally started being interested in trying to make an open source program. I don't want to in any way discourage you but ...

Thank you very much Brynn for this; that has bugged me for a while
