    Tracy Reeb replied to the topic Can't download the pdfs in the forum Forum: Freestyle Hoop Embroidery 3 years, 4 months ago

    I was able to download them. The instructions come up to read but there is also a link above. I just clicked it and the PDF opened. I was then able to save to my computer. I didn’t see any videos just PDF’s.

    Hope this helps.

    I’ve tried to download the pdfs, but get a message that it can’t be done. Please advise. Also, is the entire course made up of just these pdfs, or is there a video component, as well? i think I’m missing something. Please advise. Thanks.

    I will check with Dawn, but to me it looks like the sampler has some stitches that are over 1 thread and those would be more difficult to do 14-count Aida.
