Simple embroidery effect?

I want to take a logo I created in Adobe Illustrator and give it an embroidered effect for use in a printed piece. I searched for a tutorial on how to do this in Illustrator, but all I could find were a few Photoshop tutorials on the subject. I did manage to find some software that does this, but it’s PC only. http://www.drawstitch.com/index.php/Products/Embroidery_Effect/

Can somebody point me in the right direction?

    Do a search for 'Embroidery i2' in case you need that frequently.

    Yes, I saw that but I'm spinning my wheels. It seems like Adobe should have a plugin for this kind of effect.

    Here is some of the stuff created with Drawings 6 from Corel. Why isn't this possible with Illustrator?
