We have recently updated our website to a new system as of 4/5/23.
If you need to download again, please contact us with your order number or your email for your account, and we can re-enable the download link with the most updated files.
We apologize for any inconvenience, this may cause you, but hope that the new system we have transitioned into will serve you better.
Embroidery files are loaded into embroidery machines. They are a set of instructions to the machine on how to sew a particular design. Embroidery formats listings provide different sized letters in individual files. Each digitized file is sewn and tested to work on standard material. We use lots of underlay and close stitch spacing for good coverage. You may need embroidery software to group the letters into one monogram. (see recommendations below)
We use Wilcom to create our files so if you need to resize, we recommend using our native EMB files with Wilcom software. These are the original condensed versions if you need to make adjustments to underlay, stitch spacing, pull compensation, and so forth to fit your project.
Embroidery designs are sold in different sizes. Each size has different properties so the stitches lay perfectly and these properties include stitch spacing, pull compensation, underlay, jump stitch lengths, layering, and more.

The general rule for resizing expanded machine formatted files is 10%. However, this may or may not work depending on the fabric and artwork. The stitch count does not change, meaning if you are sizing down, stitches are just more packed together into a smaller area. If you are sizing up, stitches are spread out and you have more spacing in between stitches. Depending on the fabric, this may or may not work since some fabrics require more coverage than others.
With that being said, some software will allow you to process or convert expanded machine formatted files into a condensed format that can be resized and the stitches will automatically adjust.
Please keep in mind that if you modify these files, you may get mixed results. Always do a sewout on similar material.
We cannot be held responsible for the quality of the stitching once you have modified the file.

Vector graphics are a series of points, lines, arcs and other geometric shapes. They are the original graphic files of most illustrations that can be manipulated using graphic software. We recommend using graphic software such as Adobe Illustrator or Corel Draw to manipulate our files.
The vector alphabets we sell provide the entire alphabet grouped in one file to save space. You will need graphic software to open or import the file format you need, and then ungroup the shapes. Copy, Paste, Resize as needed.
