Anyone know of any Embroidery Software for OS X? I am wanting something like Wilcom. http://www.wilcom.com.au/es/ My wife would like to use a Mac to digitize the designs. Right now she must use a PC... Any ideas???

Long list of needlework apps

There is some mac software in this list, but I didn't see any OS X native apps.

I feel your pain. Gave up looking for an OS X quilt block building program for my wife.

That coupled with the dearth of OS X edutainment stuff for my soon to be 3 year old made her utter the horrifying "I love our Macs and all, but maybe we should just get a cheap pc for the basement."

Aaaargh!
Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal!

How about digitizing software? I only know of a couple of programs on windows so I doubt there is a Mac port. Oh well, guess we must continue to use winblows...

At the worst, you could use Virtual PC. Keep your Mac, but add the ability to use those specialized apps when you need. Not perfect, but it should at least work...

Ahh but it uses a dongle and I do not know if Virtual PC will allow the use of a usb dongle.

I just downloaded the Stitch Crafts Pro demo.

Seems to run fine in classic.
