I'm pretty excited as I have found the perfect open-source project for me. The software is called Embroidermodder2 and it is hosted on GitHub. It's definitely been a learning experience and I had to learn how to use the Qt (platform). The program is mostly written in C++ which I'm not as versed in as Java but it's not a problem. So far I am loving Qt as creating UI designs is a breeze! The web site for more information is :
