How to Organize Your Embroidery File Library

Don't Let Your Files Chaos Control You

As you collect designs, organization becomes critical. Do not save everything to 'Downloads'.

The Folder Hierarchy

We recommend organizing by Category > Vendor > Format.

      /Embroidery
        /Holidays
          /Christmas
            /UrbanThreads (Vendor)
              /Santa_Claus
                Santa_Claus.PES
                Santa_Claus.DST
                Color_Chart.PDF
      

Asset Management Software

Consider using software like "Embroidery Explorer Plugin" for Windows, which allows you to see thumbnails of PES/DST files directly in Windows Explorer, rather than generic icons.
