Embrizo

SewArt alternative: auto-digitize in your browser

SewArt is S&S Computing's Windows program for turning images into embroidery files. You clean up the picture with its image tools so each color is a flat, uniform area, then auto-digitize the whole image or one color at a time. Here's how it compares with Embrizo, and when each one is the better choice.
