Part 1 of this two-part series focuses on using the appliqué-specific design program to create sew files from vector images in just a few steps.Stahls’ TV educator Courtney Kubitza provides an overview of the software and a step-by-step demonstration of its tools and features in action. You’ll learn how images created in Adobe Illustrator®, CadworxLIVE® and CorelDraw—as well as predigitized art— can be imported and combined for namedrops, personalization and more.
You’ll also see how you can set thread types and colors and adjust thread angles and densities, stitch widths, placement lines and holes to avoid overlaps and minimize stops for seamless workflow. There is even a quick tutorial on preparing art for Rip-Away Applique™.
