Computer-Controlled Embroidery Machines?

Posted by Cliff on Wednesday November 12, 2003 @08:52AM from the sewing-in-the-21st-century dept.

Togashi Heiwa asks: "I've been looking at doing some embroidery for a project I am working on (I do costumes for LRPGs, etc.), and wanted to try a computer-controlled embroidery machine. This way, I could do uniform insignias, etc. without being limited to the collection of cartoon characters & flowers that come with most machines. A brief search on the subject turns up several machines or apps that do this, but they have varying formats, and I'd like to get a technical review, as opposed to just a typical home user. Anyone have any experience with embroidery software and hardware?"

No, I'm sorry.
No one cares about this topic.

And FP!

Somehow I doubt that there's much overlap between consumer embroidery equipment and Linux.
But the code is available -- write it yourself, you lazy bastard! Do you expect The Community to do everything? They're laughing at us so Ghahndhi says we're going to win.
