I am curious though if anyone has used the applique stitch function in Design Shop and can share their experiences. One of our users was quoted as saying "If you have Design Shop Plus, (not sure Design Shop has it), you have the capability of creating applique sew files by taking your vector file from the Roland cutter into DS+. It requires a few steps, but it costs you nothing." I really would like to know more and how well it works. At this time, I passed on the program you can buy called Twill Stitch Pro which creates the sew discs. It runs about $600. http://www.imprintableswarehouse.com/index.cfm/fuseAction/renMachine/index.html =========================================================== The AmayaUsers Mailing List Website: http://www.amayausers.com Discussion Board: http://www.amayausers.com/boards Subscribe/Unsubscribe: http://www.amayausers.com/list ===========================================================
