machine embroidery on the road

We took our machine (Brother Innovis 4000D) along for a while, but not any more. We tried selling things at craft shows, etc but it just too much time to sew out designs. We still have a few items left that we display every so often. All our work is now done at home for family and friends. We do have a continuing project selling 4" patches to a local motorcycle dealer who sells the bikes our group rides. We've sold patches to several groups, but it's not a regular money-maker.

As for digitizing - I use Brother's PEDesign. Been using it for about 5 years now. If I'm in a hurry for a design I might buy it from emblibrary.com but I usually do my own digitizing.
