VIP Multimedia Trunk Show - Stephanie Young |
Saturday and Sunday Classes Regular sessions are 1 hour and 15 minutes long
Envelopes and Baselines - Lisa Shaw How to use them in the Embrilliance platform and how to create your own in StitchArtist. Envelopes shape your lettering to fill and object like a megaphone, a diamond, a rocker patch or any shape that has two distinct sides and a top and bottom constraint. Baselines give your lettering a specific path to follow. We will discuss how these are used in the Embrilliance programs and design collections AND how to create your own using StitchArtist.
Don't LOSE your Stitches!! - Lisa Shaw When you are stitching on knit beanies, Cuddle or minky blankets, or even loopy bath towels, you do not want your embroidery design to be lost in the texture of the fabric. We will talk about what you can do in software AND at the machine to help your embroidery stand out when stitched on these types of fabrics.
Machine Embroidery Lingo - Lisa Shaw If you are new to Machine Embroidery it can sometimes seem like people are talking a foreign language. From acronyms (ITH or WSS) to embroidery formats to software terms like digitizing vs customizing or fonts vs alphabet designs and then of course there the digitizing terms like density, underlay and pull compensation - it can be overwhelming and confusing. This class will demystify the language of machine embroidery!
