StitchLink testimonials & media coverage
Carol Ann Peterson, Owner of Janome Memory Craft 10001
“StitchLink is a wonder! I really prefer to use the StitchLink for my design transfers because of the convenience. I do not have to scroll through a whole list of designs on the ATA card. I just transfer the ones I have edited in Customizer and are ready to embroider – and away I go! I love it! I’m pushing 70 years old and have some physical/health issues. I got StitchLink because I felt it would make getting designs from my computer to the machine so much easier. I found the setup to be quite easy with the step-by-step instructions. It was amazing to me how smoothly it all went. I was worried that the setup would be too confusing, but it really wasn’t complicated at all and StitchLink was up and running in a very short time. I’m one happy senior citizen!”

Randy Thomas, Senior Vice President, Janome America, Inc.
“Sewing space is at a premium for most sewers, many of them simply can't afford to dedicate a whole room to their hobby. And, a lot of families share a home computer, which means it has to be located in a central part of the house. But, with a range of up to 300 feet, StitchLink allows the computer, with its messy tangle of connection cables, to be well out of the way of the sewing machine. It can actually eliminate the need for a separate sewing computer with its own scanner, printer and Internet connection. The silex StitchLink opens up a whole new world for our customers. By adding wireless capabilities to our USB-enabled sewing and embroidery machines, our customers have more freedom to create. We're proud to bring the Wi-Fi revolution to the world of home sewing.”

Soni Grint, Embroidery Software Product ManagerPfaff Sewing Machines
“The StitchLink wireless connection gives Pfaff creative 2170 (2144/2140) customers the ability to embroider more.Most households have one computer that is shared by all members of the family. This computer is usually placed in a den or family room far from where the Pfaff creative 2170 (2144/2140) is used. By using the StitchLink, designs can be transferred easily without having to move the computer or embroidery machine.There are so many wonderful design collections that are on CD. StitchLink makes transferring these designs a breeze. Personalize designs with the 3D Embroidery Artist and then use the Send to function. The new design is on its way. Embroidery is so easy with the StitchLink and the Pfaff creative 2170.” |

Katherine D. Soja, Embroidery Software Trainer Pfaff Sewing Machines
“StitchLink is also great for laptop users. Imagine getting comfortable on your deck or front porch or even in front of the fireplace...where ever you can relax and create within about 100 meters of your Pfaff creative 2170, 2144, or 2140 (the beach might be too far). When you have finished creating your beautiful design just send your design from the comfort of that chair to your Pfaff creative machine without leaving your seat until you are ready to sew.” |
