Go for Cute unless you have alot of time to search for designs. In Amazing, you have to go through every page to find something. You can't search for anything specific. There are really cute things there, but I don't want them all. I am going to renew Cute, because I can at least go backwards from the "latest designs" until I catch up with the designs from the past 6 months, and search by topics. Unless there is a design I can't live without, and as long as all designs are available for download,I'll just renew maybe once a year.

THANKS EVERYONE.....I like the idea of alternating....since I have dial-up it's hard to do a lot of looking at both sites, I will probably go to the library to do downloads.....again thanks so much......blessings Janet

I had once a membership at amazing but I prefer Cute cause the designs are in categories and you have a possibility to search a design. I think this is the most uncomfotable thing at amazing and also at adorable applique: Always have to go through all pages :o(

I had the same wonderful problem! I really like the amazing embroidery because they seem to have more variety that I will actually use, so I got that. But, I told him I would really, really like a gift certificate from Embroidery Library the best, since I love to get their $1 designs. I think i'm getting both!!! I haven't been very good this year, though..... I keep buying designs! Is this an addiction???

I had both but now can only afford one so I alternate between them. Find that is a great resolution.

See you've gotten some great suggestions. Another would be to scroll through both sites and see what interests you the most and make that one your first choice.

Alternate, choose one now and the other in 6 months. See which has the designs you want most and get that one first. In a year you will have all the designs, then renew in the same order so you can get the designs you missed while subscribed to the other.

Good idea.

I was going to suggest the same.

That's what I would suggest too. Have a look at the designs on both sites, see what you would like to download and use now and let that help you decide which of the two to buy a membership for first.
