Because I use both Hatch and Embrilliance, I often get questions along the lines of "which one is best?" Recently that question has popped up about fonts so here's what you need to know!

Based on the number of requests I see on Facebook and other lists for free embroidery design and fonts, I suspect that the average embroiderer doesn’t know what goes into creating one. And that’s rather to be expected with the volume of font sets being sold at $1.

Looking for high quality machine embroidery fonts that are keyboard-friendly?

Keyboard fonts, those embroidery fonts you can insert by simply selecting a font from a menu and typing as you would in most any computer app, instead of combining individual design files consisting of one character per file, are infinitely easier and more efficient to use.

I have a confession… yes, it's true, I am a junkie. A font junkie to be specific. As a long time Mac user (got my first one in March of 1984, the first one in the town of Chillcothe, Ohio where I lived at the time) I've had a head start on collecting fonts.
