I spent the entire day organizing my embroidery files, using your ideas and direction. I cannot tell you how much it's helped me wrap my mind around the file system. My files were all over the place, but not any more. They're organized and I hope to keep them in good order. Your instructions are so clear and easy to understand. Thank you so much.

Thank you so much for your Service and continued Service from an Air Air Force Veteran and long time former AF spouse. You are truly inspiring to me. Just doing embroidery for a few years and truly a novice about so many things, especially the Embrilliance software. Your video content is easily understood and comprehensive. I am your new fan! Look forward to learning so much more without being so intimidated. Bless you. 😀

Great information. I love my embroidery machine, and making in the hoop designs. I can’t always remember all the short cuts, so it was great to see them in action.

OMG thank you so much. I purchased my embroidery machine, got about a 20 min walk thru and have been left to my own devices!! Great information!!

Becky, I am relatively new to embroidery and quite a novice when it comes to computers. However I like alot of people use my cell phone for everything. So convenience sake I'm wondering if there is a cord or gadget or app that i can use to download embroidery designs directly from my cell phone to a usb drive and then to the embroidery machine. I've asked in my Bernina 830 group and no one seems to understand what I'm asking for. I've purchased a external cd drive because I have several Anita good designs and my new laptop doesn't have that drive available.

Thank you SO much for this video! As a new owner of an embroidery machine, I am still learning! Your info is so helpful!

Aw, shucks, 3 yrs ago for class. I am so very thankful to have found you. You truly are a great teacher!

I've been downloading for a few years and I still found this video helpful! Thank you.

You are a fabulous teacher. Please keep making these instructional videos for embroidery. I appreciate that you show your goofs...(Uh Oh!). I know I will make all of those plus many more and seeing how you fix it is so important.

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I’m really happy you are taking your time to do these tutorials. I’ve been looking and reading about Embrilliance. Also, as I’m purchasing designs I want to store them appropriately on my computer and not have them all over the place. You are a treasure! Thank you!😎❤️

Thank you Becky! I just spent the last 2 hours learning to use my new 'embroidery only' laptop (I'm an Apple gal, and this one is Microsoft), and downloaded several hundred files! Your tutorial helped me so much!

I just want to thank you so so much! About a month ago I got a new computer. Went from a Mac to Windows. I have been going around and around with zip files and how to open in Embrilliance. So amazingly simple. Your the best. For you 💐

love this video. So glad you are teaching us. I have an embroidery machine, but have no idea how to get started. Thanks for doing this for us.

Excellent. I have a 2 year old Babylock hardly ever used and a new computer still in the box. Tomorrow, I am going to unbox that computer and get to work. Saved your video and plan to watch the follow up. You are a great easy to understand teacher. Thank you for your help.

How funny. I started a "how to embroider with the Solaris" video tonight. Someone asked for it. I'm not showing all that stuff you are doing. I just showed where I get my designs and how they keep them for you and you can download them forever. Very nice! I don't want to go through the zillion kinds of stabilizers either. I'll let you do that. (-:

Hi!!! Just purchased the Embrilliance software. I have four Brother machines X 4 years and ONLY NOW, getting to know how to best utilize their capabilities Thank you for this video!!! I am 57 years old but DESPERATELY needed to learn new baby steps in order to “walk” with my machines:-). Since I am not computer savvy, with YOUR tutorials, I FINALLY “get it” and understand how to do more. Being new to You Tube, well, wow!!! So much info available. But I must say, I have subscribed to a few channels, but YOUR channel is the ONLY one that I turned on the notifications bell 🔔 ;) I look forward to “catching up” with ALL your videos that I have missed. Your time and dedication for helping novices such as myself is truly appreciated 🙏

I love the way you explain things! Great job!

OMG thank you. I am a beginner with machine embroidery. Just got my first machine for Christmas so I have been watching video after video and your video is awsome. I do domestic violence work in the court system so I sew and am venturing out to learn machine embroidery as my relief. My Mom taught me to sew when I was 13 years old and I am thinking about retirement. I have saved your video and will be looking for more of your videos. Thanks again and wish me luck.

First I would like to Thank You So VERY much for your service!! 2nd I absolutely love your sewing room!, I watched your video showing your sewing room, I am completely new at all of the embroidery stuff following your videos have helped me like no other. You are an excellent teacher and I will follow you on all your videos!! Thank you!!! Lisa:)

Great INFO! I have saved this and now will purchase downloads and save! Many Thanks

OMGosh thank you so much for this instructional video and explaining how to be organized when downloading embroidery files. I chose to purchase my first previously owned baby lock ellisimo embroidery machine during the Covid pandemic thinking I’d be able to take lessons locally only to find out the closest dealer is more than an hour away and due to the virus not holding classes. This video will be most useful to me and I’m sure others as well

Thank you for such a great tutorial!! I did purchase embrillance as well as the thumbnail program.. I'm starting to organize my patterns that I purchased so much easier. The company had the software on sale so it was a great decision for me.

OMG, the fun begins. Thanks for this!!

Thank you so much. I was having trouble figuring out how to get my embroidery design from embrilliane to machine. You md it so easy ❤

Thank you so much for the detailed instructions!! Thank you for your service and for serving our country!!

Excellent Thoughts! I have a separate book for fonts, with pictures of fonts to make it easier to choose. I remember downloading one letter at a time to my emu machine, rather than download it into digitizing software, which takes up valuable memory space. Good idea to clean off machine occasionally, too.

Oh this is gonna be fun! Thanks for all the info. Great job.

Hello Becky. I am not new to machine embroidery. I began back in 1995. Needless to say it’s changed over the years. Back in about the year 2000 I purchased a program called Embird. It did all of the things that both of the software programs you were using and even more. You could digitize your own designs in it, you could turn a photo into an embroidery, instead of using just the file name it also had a thumbnail of the embroidery, so if you didn’t know the name you could just look for the picture of the embroidery. I’ve been sick and haven’t embroidered for about 8.5 years now, but I did try to keep up with progress by watching KZread and visiting stores that had machines and fabric. I said all of that to say that I was afraid I wouldn’t understand the new way of doing things, but you made it so easy to understand. It really hasn’t changed a lot. Mostly what you use to get the designs to the embroidery machine. Thank you so much for this video. It has encouraged me that I may still have the ability to use my embroideries I saved to discs for a back up. Embird gave a free 30 day trial and then the full program (which had a lot more to it than I could put in here) was around $89. When windows went from a 16 bit system to 32 I think, they took a long time trying to convert to the new. It was about the time I got sick. I don’t know if they ever made the switch or went out of business. I’m going to try and find out. I hope they are still in business. It was a powerful program. I’ve got some research to do. I still have My Husqvarna Viking #1+ machine and back a few years ago my husband got me a Singer Futura Quintet. I would never have gotten a Singer if I were involved because I’ve heard they are junk. I sure hope not because it has some really big and nice hoops to go with it. I have just unboxed it. I haven’t used it yet. Thank you for the encouragement to get in there and use it. Things haven’t changed so much that I can’t understand it. If I don’t I’ll ask you, LOL. Have a blessed day. Thank you again. Elizabeth

Adding to my previous comment, I got it on my machine. Now I have to figure out how to make it do all of the stops and change the colors and stuff. woohoo making progress. Thanks Becky.

Thank you so much. This is not in the manual with the machine and without this you are so limited. I too got about a 20 minute teaching session and have struggled trying to figure out how all this works so just started doing more quilting. There are not so many KZread sites for instruction on embroidery. I think much comes because there are so many different machines. I will really start again working on more embroidery thanks to you.

Thank you for your service. My father was retired Air Force as well

Good place to start Becky. Welcome to the addiction folks. LOL. I've been digitizing for 10 years. Lots of training courses and I still have a lot to learn.

Yay Becky!! Fantastic job explaining each step of the process for the embroidery files. I have struggled with saving my embroidery files and being able to remember what they are based on the weird filenames, not to mention remember what they look like. I recently stumbled across Embrilliance Essentials. I have the free version, but will be purchasing the product as it seems pretty easy to use and also a powerful tool for editing or adding to designs. I love your idea of a zipper pouch for your Handycam and the gnomes are super cute!! Can't wait to see your follow-up videos on this subject. Thanks for educating us and taking the time to do so!!

Here's a GREAT detailed resource on Embrilliance. It's part 2 of a 4 video series. If you look up the channel, you can see the rest of them. I loved it. kzread.info/dash/bejne/h6xomKtqftKtoqg.html

Thanks for sharing this video. I'm getting back into computer jargon but I will say I have figured out most of what you've already told us tonight. I do a little extra step. I save it into three places once in a file folder (vendors ) I set up listening all the different vendors I use. Next I save to a file folder (My Designs) in that folder I break everything down by subject (Animals, Flowers, Poodles, Misc, Quilting, etc) and save by subject then copy to my USB stick. I do rename the files and print out the design with the color change sheet from the web site and catalog into a binder under subject. That way I can flip through my book looking for designs. I Premier +2 as my software , when I pull up the design I can change colors to see how the look and reprint the design once I've finished editing. I find I change colors a lot to my preference. I scribble all over sheets I keep in my book recording which fabric /stabilizer I used, and if I changed a color again. I just got my embroidery machine this year and I have been testing the designs I like and thanks to you I have been introduced to different designers (if you mention someone I go check it out). I hope to design my own (after I find the time to learn my software) . Love your channel. The biggest problem I've had so far is selecting the stabilizer. I had one design shriveled up after pressed it. Currently I'm making a Dog Grooming apron for a friend " Poodle in a Tub" I have a lot of Poodle friends and if I make the something I change the Poodle to match the dog they are currently showing. When will you give out the information for your Embroidery Along you are I think I want to try it. I have downloaded several EIH projects but haven't had time to try them yet. Trying to many DIY projects at the same time on the house, plus train and show dogs. Really need to Fix a leak on my travel trailer!

Yes! Get to it. Files that can't be found, can't be used and then are just a waste of money in the long run. I have a bunch myself that still need to be organized from when I first began doing machine embroidery. Even if I just have 5 minutes (and I think about it), I create folders and add in an "orphan" here and there to put it in its rightful place.

Thank you for this helpful video. I really struggle with finding the files, unzipping them, and organizing them. And I DO end up asking my kids and grandkids. lol I just bought Thumbnailer thru your link, so I think that will help as well.

No, I have the same machine as you and I have not hooked up my laptop to the machine. Using a USB stick is much easier to me than dragging my laptop around. However, manufacturers have made that possible because many users are unsure of how to do the transfer process I describe in this video. It's nice that they allow us to do what works for each user based on their skills. I'm pretty sure our machines don't read Windows 10 which is what I'm running. Thank you so much for watching & commenting!
