Hi everyone,

I am brand new to both this forum and embroidery machines. I have a small home-based business embellishing yoga & fitness wear and want to start adding simple embroidered elements to some of my designs.

I scraped together as much money as I could and purchased a Singer Futura 150. I plan to use it for the 90 day trial period to get some experience then upgrade to something better.

I do ALL of my design work in Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator. I don't really need digitizing software that gives me drawing capabilities and I especially don't want to have to redraw something I just spent hours doing in Illustrator.

Is there some kind of software out there that will simply use the vectors I've already drawn or "auto-trace" my shapes and "auto-digitize" the shapes into stitches that doesn't cost $1,000+? (I have a spending limit of about $300)

Thanks for your help in advance,

Patty
