Already own Hatch Embroidery?
If you already own any level or version of Hatch Embroidery (versions 1 to 3), simply sign in to your account at hatchembroidery.com and your personalized upgrade price will be presented automatically based on the version and level you own. Plus, embroidery designs you created in earlier versions can be opened and edited in Hatch 4.
Does Composer work with my embroidery machine?
Yes. Hatch Embroidery Composer supports the file formats used by most major embroidery machine brands, including Brother, Janome, Bernina, Baby Lock, Singer and many others. Hatch 4 also adds direct wireless transfer to supported Brother machines.
What are the system requirements?
Most modern Windows PCs purchased in recent years will meet the requirements, but we recommend reviewing the full system requirements before installing for the best experience. Hatch 4 runs on 64-bit Windows 11 systems and performs best on modern hardware with a multi-core processor, SSD storage, and 16GB or more RAM.
Is Hatch sold as a subscription?
No. Hatch Embroidery Composer is a perpetual license you own, with FlexPay available if you prefer to spread payments over time.
How is FlexPay structured?
FlexPay lets you spread the cost over monthly payments while getting immediate access to the software. No waiting, no feature limitations.
