    Hi Kim, I don't know anything about the Inovi 750. I have the Brother SE400. But if you're using PED-Basic to write the cards, you can put more than one design on the card. You click the browse button and navigate to the folder where your embroidery designs are. This can be a folder on your hard drive or on the CD. Then in the box on the left -- the "Available Patterns List" you'll see the designs you can copy. Click the pattern you want to write to the card. Then Click the arrow button in the center of the boxes to move the design to the "Selected patterns list." Do this for all the designs you want to write to the card.

    If you already have designs on the card that you want to save, you must select the card first and move those designs to the "Selected patterns list."

    Be sure to keep checking the "Card capacity indicator" because the card may not hold all the designs you want, especially if you have a lot of them on CD.

    You can also select multiple designs by, holding down the Ctrl key or Shift key while clicking the designs. Or you can just drag the designs from the left box to the right box.

    All the designs in the right box will get written to the card.

    Hope this helps. It's a bit hard to write it clearly.

    Thanks for the lens. I have been online researching to see if I can do applique with this. A friend of mine has PE Design and can do applique, but I'm not sure if this can. She said she has .emb files not .pes files... *blessed*

    No, PED-Basic won't do qpplique. Its editing functions are very limited. What it's good for is to write embroidery designs (including appliques) onto embroidery cards to import into embroidery machines that don't have USB ports.

    To do applique you would either have to buy or download a free applique design or create one yourself with embroidery editing software such as PE Design or Embird,

    Thanks for the blessing and blessings to you too,
    Kamala
