Hatch Digitizing Level 1 Lesson 4

This lessons objective is to get you thinking like a digitizer. “Mapping or Pathing” is a digitizing term for learning how to logically plan your designs before you begin. In this last running stitch lesson we will be covering the “Redwork” technique, which means that every object within a design will have exactly two passes of thread in every area. This may sound easy but you will soon find out that unless you have a well executed plan it’s very easy to lose your way and get trapped. This is one of the reasons I find digitizing fun and challenging, every design is like a puzzle and is different every time.

Important: This lesson is no longer available for purchase individually. To help you save and because most embroiderers purchase all of Level 1 anyways, it’s now bundled in Level 1 of our Digitizer’s Dream Course. If you’re new to our site, you can enroll in our Free Embroidery Digitizing 101 Course.

Description

This lessons objective is to get you thinking like a digitizer. “Mapping or Pathing” is a digitizing term for learning how to logically plan your designs before you begin. In this last running stitch lesson we will be covering the “Redwork” technique, which means that every object within a design will have exactly two passes of thread in every area. This may sound easy but you will soon find out that unless you have a well executed plan it’s very easy to lose your way and get trapped. This is one of the reasons I find digitizing fun and challenging, every design is like a puzzle and is different every time.

We will start with a quick review of basic pathing and then digitized five different lessons. Each slightly different with respect to planning and how we are going to utilize functions within the software to make our jobs easier.

These pathing exercises will complete our theory for using the running stitch and will equip you for the optional Certification Lesson as well as get you ready for Level 2 which will begin our journey with the satin stitch.

The run time on these 5 videos is approximately 70-80min dependent on the software. However, because these are Interactive lessons, meaning that the user will be following along, pausing and playing thru the process of digitizing the exercises. You can expect the time spent completing all the exercises within this and all our lessons will undoubtedly take many hours. Please keep in mind that there are many factors which will determine how fast each individual is…. please keep in mind this is not a race.
