I never thought I'd pick up a book about a subject like digitizing and find it fascinating---but this book exceeded my expectations. It is very clearly written and has helpful illustrations throughout. In addition to the how-to's, the author also covers the history of embroidery machines before the computer era, and how some of the knowledge from those early years helps with digitizing with a computer today. I just wish I'd bought this book from Amazon, because I paid list price for it at a sewing shop. I'd recommend this book to anyone interested in digitizing and computerized embroidery. It explains why designs sometimes don't stitch out as well as expected, how to digitize to avoid problems, and what to look for when shopping for digitizing software. The CD that comes with it is nice too.

I have had a digitizing program for many years for my home embroidery machine and never felt I had good information on how to digitize well. This book gave me the basics I need to feel confident to go back and make my own designs again. A must have book for new and seasoned home designers or beginners in the digitizing embroidery field as an introduction to the industry.
