Machine selection

Different embroidery machines speak different languages. Before you can stitch a design, it must be in a file format which can be understood by the embroidery machine. When you select a machine format, Hatch Embroidery uses it to translate digitized designs into machine-readable form. The software supports various sets of machine model. Most machine models can read USB memory sticks. These are convenient portable memory devices which can hold large amounts of data.

Note: Some customers want to connect Hatch Embroidery directly to machine. If your embroidery machine can be seen as an external drive in File Explorer, you may be able to send designs directly. For instance, some single needle Brother machines have a mode which enables them to be set up like this. See Transfer designs for details. See also FAQs on the Hatch Embroidery website.
