Product Description

NOTE: Embrilliance Essentials does not create new embroidery files using existing graphics files like JPG or SVG; Creating new embroidery designs requires a different Embrilliance platform program.

Every embroiderer needs the tools to make basic changes and additions to their embroidery designs. These elementary alterations should be easy and fun to do, but without capable software they can be difficult. That's why we made Essentials, to give everyone access to tools that work and make embroidery fun again. With Embrilliance Essentials, you can merge, resize (recalculate stitches) remove overlaps, colorize, print templates, add lettering, and so much more.

Using your Mac or PC (regardless of Windows version) you can:

  • Merge embroidery designs in almost any format, even while they are in .ZIP files
  • Resize embroidery designs with stitch recalculation
  • Colorize machine embroidery designs
  • Convert embroidery thread brands in your designs
  • Add embroidered lettering in Multi-Line, Monogram and Circle modes. You can even spiral text or make really LARGE letters
  • Split embroidery designs automatically for some multi-position hoops
  • Save stitch files in your embroidery machine's format
  • Save working project files so that you can edit your embroidered text later
  • Overlap embroidery designs and have unnecessary underlying stitching removed
  • Run a stitch simulator to preview the way your embroidery designs will sew out
  • Group and Ungroup elements
  • Change or remove individual thread colors in an embroidery design
  • Step back through changes while you work with many levels of 'Undo' functionality
  • Use special interactive embroidery designs called 'Moddies' that calculate their stitches as you play with them! (Free examples are included with the software)
  • Print applique templates for manual pre-cutting - no more cutting in the hoop!
  • Save applique elements as cutting files for industry standard cutting machines like the Silhouette, Scan 'n Cut and more.

5 Stars
Great if you have the time to learn and create
Love that I purchased it from amazon because I got a hard copy via DVD. However, if you buy it via the Embrilliance website, you can download it immediately. YouTube has a lot of videos to teach you how to use it. Love that you can make and creat a lot of designs and give it away as personal and meaningful gifts.
Thank you for your feedback
