I am very impressed with DRAWings PRO. It’s actually amazing! I’ve been digitizing since 1989, (I think I’m a fair digizer). I use DRAWings PRO for converting customer logos to embroidery. DRAWings has really cut down my setup time.
Words cannot express how much DRAWings PRO has benefited our business. It is simple to use. Working late one night, we realized our embroidery file was too small. We were able to import it into DRAWings PRO and increase the size and were able to complete the job. This is just one of the many reasons why we recommend this software.
I have been using Wilcom for several years, “struggling.” With the new DRAWings PRO, I could do more in just a few clicks than I ever could before. It is AMAZING! It is what I have been looking for! My first sew out looked great, and all did was dropped the graphic in, saved the file, and ran it! It is as easy as they make it look. Using the templates and graphics from Digital Art Solutions, I can screen print and embroider the same file! Can’t get any easier than that!

Redwork designs are a trendy yet traditional way of creating clear minimal designs which are beautiful and modern.
With the “Convert fill to center line” function you have the ability to change a fill area made with Satin, Step, Piping etc. into Satin serial or Running stitch. This option is very convenient especially for small text objects. If the text is too small to be filled with Satin stitches, the best alternative is to fill the object with Running stitches by applying this function.

You can control the gradient percentage and easily change its direction.
This is a new revolutionary feature which dynamically creates floral designs and fill areas to apply to your designs. You may combine this feature with your own designs and even set your own flower designs to be used by the floral creation. The combinations are unlimited.
The software implements an easy way to take any design and create a quilting block from it. Stippling stitches are automatically added around the selected object creating a beautiful echo effect.

Order numbers are added together with fill and outline colors for each object, to facilitate the re-ordering process. You can also group the objects by color and customize the information you view on the sequence manager, to minimize clutter when re-ordering large designs.
The Measure tool is enhanced with more measurement units that give you more flexibility. You can now make precise measurements with the unit you prefer, making your work more efficient. Special units were added such as “physical length” and “stitch length”.
Objects that are filled with Piping stitch type can be easily converted into spiral fill objects. You only need a point direction or hole in the middle of the design and your spiral is ready. You can even apply styles on the spiral stitches and get beautiful embroidery results.
The styles can now be mirrored Along, Across or to Both sides of the outline design. These style positioning options allow you to get exactly the embroidery result you want.
