Embroidery Software and Designs

Thred is a versatile and free digitizing program for embroidery machines. It has many features that make digitizing easier and faster. The name Thred comes from the words thread and editor combined, but it's more than just an editing program for finished designs. All of the designs we offer for sale on this site were made completely with Thred, as were many of the free designs.
