StitchArtist is a program for both PC and Mac to create or 'digitize' machine embroidery designs from scratch. You can start either by using existing artwork or by ‘drawing with stitches.’ You create and control the shapes, set the stitch types and properties, and StitchArtist generates stitches for you, outputting to a file your embroidery machine will understand.
Level 3 includes Level 1 and Level 2 features; it is designed for someone who either loves to create designs or works commercially in the embroidery field. This level includes advanced items such as Styles, QuickStyles, an Eyelet tool, Carving lines, graphical operators such as Cut, AND, Union, Flatten, Inflate/Deflate, Re-construct and Break. It also allows for the content within the product to be expanded by publishing Motifs and Embossed effects. Additional controls are available to work how you like. Font makers and patch creators will find special tools exclusive to StitchArtist 3 for scaleable BX font publishing, faux-overlock edges, and full-stack patch digitizing.
StitchArtist is not a photo-to-stitch or autodigitizing program. It focuses on straightforward design creation and enabling users to learn embroidery digitizing fundamentals. If you want to make designs for hobby, cottage industry, or professional use, this is for you. If you really want to learn to digitize, StitchArtist will give you the control you need to create any design and know how it’s put together.
Most users will begin by importing an image they want to embroider over which they’ll draw ‘objects’ that will be stitched, over the artwork. You create the shapes, set their order, and select their stitch properties. Those familiar with any drawing software will feel comfortable with StitchArtist. When assigning stitches to shapes, you have freedom to change your mind at any time; any shape can be used for any stitch type.
Stitch generation is instant and automatic. There are no mode changes for selection, editing, coloring, moving, sizing, rotating or adjusting properties.
If you already own StitchArtist Level 1 or Level 2 do not buy this. You can just buy StitchArtist Upgrade Level 1 to Level 3 or StitchArtist Level 2 to Level 3.
