Ready to take what you've learned and put it to work? In Classes 7–9, we move beyond individual tools and focus on specific digitizing techniques for specific embroidery outcomes.
We'll look at the why behind the process, the challenges that come with each type of project, and the techniques that help you achieve a successful stitch-out.
Topics include:
- Free Standing Lace — Two Techniques
Different approaches to creating beautiful, stable freestanding lace. - Hats — Bottom Up and Center Out, Except When You Can't
Understanding your options for hat embroidery and knowing when the usual rules need to change. - Resizing from Small to BIG — Why It Isn't So Easy as That
What really happens to a design when you dramatically change its size—and what you may need to do about it. - Build a Jacket Back — In Quarters
Techniques for creating large jacket-back designs while working within the limitations of your embroidery hoop. - Patches — Two Techniques
Two different approaches to creating embroidered patches, and when each technique makes sense. - 3D Puff — Not Just for Hats Anymore
Explore the possibilities of dimensional embroidery and learn how 3D puff can be used beyond traditional hat designs.
This final set is about putting your digitizing knowledge together, thinking through the project before you digitize, and learning how to choose the technique that gets you the result you want.
