Hi Sharon, Join us twice a month on Tuesdays at noon for Software Success, an hour long online drop-in class about using various Dime Inspiration software programs. https://embroidery.com/machine-embroidery-events?p... There hasn't been one focused Perfect Stitch Viewer yet, but I'm sure there will be.
