Zip Instructions

Zipped files allow for a smoother and faster way of downloading.

Here’s how to unzip:

Right click the zip to bring up the options menus. You will have the option to extract it or Extract to… The dots will allow you to navigate to a particular folder. Click; Extract.
Wording may vary slightly, but just follow the prompts.

Most designs will only need to be unzipped once to reveal the embroidery file, ready to be used.

All designs include a text file or PDF with directions, and color list.

Most computers can unzip a file by highlighting it and right clicking it. A Mac, will simply do it for you without prompts.

If a design includes several embroidery files, then the formats will be zipped individually to make things easier for you. All of the zipped formats will then be combined into one zip for uploading. Simply repeat the above steps a second time, for the format you need.

You can see the format label in the name of the file.

For example, the downloaded file may be named like this:

Heirloom Roses Needle Keeper

If unzipping it reveals a second set of zips, they will have the name of each format near the end of the file name, like this. ( Highlighted in red here so you can see more easily what I mean):
