I can’t believe that was over 40 minutes. It sailed ⛵️ by! I loved this lesson. Thank you for the instruction, Lisa.
I am new to embroidery but not to sewing. This just felt like the next move in my apparel business. I bought the stitch artist 3 so I could skip to having all the additional options. I figured I’d self teach. Long story short I’m glad I found this video. It’s very helpful and informative. Thank you for the content!😍🪡
Thank you for the tutorial. It was very helpful! I loved following along and creating this cute sail boat with you!
This was wonderful! I still haven't decided which program I want but this is what I needed to see. This makes me want to learn more! Thank you so much!
This was an amazing tutorial! Thank you, Lisa Shaw!!
This is a FANTASTIC hands-on video! I am so excited to see the dramatic, simple commands. Thank you so much!
I just purchased the Embrilliance Stitchartist 1 today! Thank you for this video!🤍👏🏻
Lovely teaching style. The right amount of encouragement without being patronising ☺️
I bought the Stitch Artist software today and I’m so excited to learn it!
Although I don't want to learn to digitize, I feel that it is important to watch these kind of videos to help me be successful as an embroiderer. It helps me understand the process, so I can judge the products that I buy. Plus, you sound so patient, Lisa.
This is the very first one I have been able to understand. You explained everything in a way that I understood it. You are a great teacher. Thank you
This is perfect timing! I am trying to duplicate a small religious symbol for some friends in a monastery for their personal use. I was able to find all the symbols they use except for one little tiny one! Now maybe I can take their drawing and digitize that one little piece I have left to do! Wish me luck! Thank you a million times!
Your an excellent teacher, I just purchased this program because my grandmother and I are taking up embroidery. Thank you so much 😊
Once again a fabulous instruction video so you can utilize all the functions in Stitch Artist. Thanks.
Thank you very much for a great tutorial. I started to learn digitizing almost 17 years ago when I bought my software and at that time there were not any resources to find out what tool does what function and I had to wing it! But I wanted somebody to navigate through the process in an organized manner and you nailed. I really appreciate this video tutorial. Thank you very much.
This was a superb video it helped refresh my digitizing that I was taught many years ago. But I was taught using Embird which is Windows program. But having to use a program to work in Windows but using a Mac .I thought what better way to work in Mac on a Mac. So I bought Embrilliance and been slowly learning again. But I understand the concept.This video was really great. I have a company logo to do for my son on a jacket he want to have of his own company to advertise when he's out in his off time. This video will help me immensely.Thank you !
This is a fantastic video. I would love to see a video like this showing how to make a appliqué!
I love this video!! So informative and enjoyable. Thank you so much!! :)
Excellent video - excellent teacher - to the point, clear, perfect descriptions of steps - just purchased StitchArtist 2 and made my first digitized design! Bravo and thank you!
Wonderful!
Fabulous video. So clear and everything explained. I have just digitised a leaf from a photo. It stitched out great the second time. First time the leaf veins were all separate stops and starts. So I made it a continuous line for the second attempt. Now I realise how much I have to learn!!! Thank you so much for making this video.
Best simplified teaching video. Thank you
Thank You very Much Lisa!! This is exactly what I was looking for! You have done a wonderful job in this tutorial!
Glad it was helpful!
I had been using my Singer Futura software for years, full of frustration! I wish I would have found Embrilliance long time ago! This is a wonderful demonstration! Thank you so much. I am excited to get started with my first design with Embrilliance.
Thanks for sharing your enthusiasm!!
Thank you, what a great tutorial. I am very new to this so has been a great help 🙂
Great explanations and easy to follow! Thank you
Great tutorial! You explained everything very clearly. Thank you!
This was great to watch and learn. You made it look so easy.
I've been trying to decide whether or not to purchase StitchArtist. Your great video made the choice a lot easier. Can't wait to download this software! Thanks Lisa!
You are so welcome!
New to embroidery & Embrilliance modules- love this and was able to complete in SA1!
love your videos. i am learning a lot from you Ms Lisa.
Thank you Lisa, just the video I needed to decide what package from Embrilliance I required next.
Perfect! I am ready to puchase emboidery software! But I need to update my laptop first! Excellent instructor! Thank you!
Amazing tutorial
I’m an experience vector artist who normally works in illustrator for vinyl prints etc. over the years I’ve been considering adding embroidery digitization as some clients has inquired.
Over a few weeks now I’ve been looking at several digitizing software, however not much detail tutorials seems to be available with proper steps explained.
You did great with your explanations and just with this one video I have made a decision on getting level 3. Also, I will now order a single needle embroidery machine to test designs and refine and improve skills.
Thanks again for taking the time and effort in putting together this comprehensive tutorial
Thanks for the feedback! Best wishes on your journey in machine embroidery!!
You are the BEST teacher!
I want to thank you because I bought a Janome Embroidery machine and Embrillance software, although a little expensive on the software I am going to purchase the Stitch artist Level 1 software because I am wanting to learn digitizing because the embroidery with digitizing is so beautiful. I never understood anything about digitizing because I couldn’t understand the people who where explaining the instructions until I found your video, thank you so much and you are so patient!
Glad to hear you like our videos! Be sure to subscribe to our channel!! Happy creating!
Such an excellent teacher!
So much valuable information, thank you 🙏🏾
What a fantastic video!!! Thank you so much!!!
Great explanation! Love your video . Thanks
Such a helpful video, great pacing! Thinking about investing in level one :)
Hi Lisa! Thanks to this great video, I was able to digitize my 1st ever original design! So thanks a lot. However, after stitching out my design, I found that I did not line up my outline bean stitch neatly and would like to line it up better. I brought the working file back to the program but I don’t know what I need to do to get it back to my nodes to move the lines around. I hope I am making sense here
Looking forward to doing this for real! Thanks!
Thank you so much I just shared your vid with a fellow digitizing newbie
Your a Great teacher I understand that very well
I like the way you teach you are the best
Awesome Video, Thank You
Thank you so much for teaching
Brilliant!
Thank You Lisa.
Great lesson!!
I enjoyed this video. It is a helpful introduction for those new to software. I might make a suggestion. As I don't know the software, and exactly what you're doing, I often did not know where the cursor was. It would be helpful to add directional language. Rather than say here, over there, etc... Say top right, bottom center... Thank you
Thank you 🙏🏽
I am inspired!
Awesome tutorial!!!
Glad you liked it!
So helpful!!!
niceeee video, thanks so much!!!
So basically, essentials is mostly for designs armrests bought? If I want to insert an image like you, can I do the basic stuff in artist 1? Do digitize?
Does either version of StitchArtist allow me to automatically create an outline or do I have to draw that on manually?
More pieces of Embrilliance to buy?
Great video! Do you know if Stitchartist has all the features of Essentials or do I need both?
Thank you been putting off thinking it to hard think I can do this
Yes you can! Enjoy!!
Thank you!
Thank you, I learned so much today. Could you please make a video explaining how to go about when digitizing two or more objects in sketch style while they are overlapping. How do I digitize it so that the bottom layer does not show through the top layer. I know how to remove the underlay and adjust the density to get to the sketch part, but don't know how to
remove the overlap with both the sketch stitches as well as outline (hope I make sense to you)
Reshape your objects so that they are not overlapping! You have complete control over the shapes of the objects.
Thank you!
You're welcome!
Excellent video! Would it be possible for you to do a video or point me in the right direction to digitize small letters? the only stitch i can get to look halfway decent is a run stitch for the outline. It looks so shoddy in the software I didnt bother finishing. Again, even a website will help. I am having no luck trying to find info specifically for stitchartist lvl 1.
Since you don’t have controls of The higher levels you will need to break your objects and possibly digitize your own underlay separately. Look at small fonts that stitch well in your software and practice replicating what you see.
Great Video! You must have been a teacher at some point in your life.
Lisa has been teaching people to use embroidery software for over 20 years.
Fantastic
This was a very great video, i enjoyed this so much, i wanted to know can you do a class using a picture like something for a busines (ect) aging this was helpful and i have learned a lot from you, thank you
As this video says - make a plan and follow your plan! Doesn’t matter what the picture is :) study your test sew from this project to see what can be improved or changed the next time. The process is the same no matter the subject!

Hey Lisa. Great video. I have wondered about the ladder stitch and followed your procedure in my software as I watched your video. My question is, how do you get the nodes to automatically open as cusp. I've noticed in other tutorials your nodes will automatically open as cusp. Is there a way to choose which type of node I want before before I begin drawing with points? I know I can change them one at a time, but getting them to start out that way is a huge time saver. Thanks. So glad we can find these videos and learn on our own time.😊
You need to hold down the shift key when creating them. Be sure to watch the draw with points videos on our StitchArtist playlist!
This is one of your best videos, for me. I get distracted too easily when too much chatter and actions going on. I am looking at the SA series; already have Essentials. Do I need to buy SA 1 first, then add SA 2? You've also shown a video on Thumbnailer that explained it much better. Going to get that as well - one pay day at a time. I'm going to view more of your SA videos, too! Thank you.
You can start with Level 1 and upgrade to Level 2 OR you can get StitchArtist L2 full version. Glad that you enjoy our videos!
Hi Lisa, can you help me please, If you wanted to put a number on the sail or a name on the hull, would you fill the space and then put the number on top, or would you put the number in and surround it by the fill stitch?
You can have up to 3 layers of stitches without any issues at all! In fact you will get better coverage and NO GAPS if you do layer them.
Thank you for the video I want to learn how to digitizing but, I don't have the create botton in the bar tool, how can I find it? my software didn't come with that tool? that's possible?

Hopefully someone can help me... How do you get the scroll bars on the top and side of your 'work' area?
did you ever find out? i need help with that too lol
Hi, could you please tell me how you access the "right click" menu on mac(15:36min.), to cut or break apart. I have been trying but its not working for me. I'm using a demo version and the mac's track pad, as I don't normaly use a mouse. Thank you for your video*
Your right click settings on Mac are set in your Apple Settings. Most likely it is a two finger click on the trackpad but check your Apple settings.
Bravo madam !
What kind of embroidery machine do you recommend for someone using Embrilliance StitchArtist 2 and with a design that involves a lot of color stitches?
Embrilliance works with all machines!
I'm here to prep for the CT workshops. I really need a translation tool for the commands of my old software>Embrilliance Stitchartist 3🙃.

Very nice. More please.
And if possible Digitizing 202..
Thank you.
Digitizing 202 happens when you start pushing buttons :). Can’t wait to see what you create!
@@Embrilliance OK. Challenge excepted.
Can do. How do I share?

How do you scan your drawing into your laptop in the first place
Using your scanner software or taking a photo and transferring it to your computer.
im digitizing a logo and the first step for me is to make a square but the lines wont go straight....i hope you could help me what to do...thanks!
Check out the draw with points videos to see how to use the SHIFT and CTRL keys to change your nodes as you draw.
Totally Bought essentials when I should have bought Stitch Artist *groans*
Remember that they have different jobs - There is a great overview video as well as beginner info on this page. www.Embrilliance.com/start
Did they split out some of the features in Level 2 into Level 3? I'm seeing that SVG support is no longer in Level 2 and only in Level 3. Seems like a recent development given that this video was uploaded in January of this year.
dang, really? do I have to buy level 1 and level 2 before I buy level 3?
No, SVG is still part of level 2.
You can purchase StitchArtist L3 completely. Upgrades are available to those that have purchased an earlier level so that they do not have to purchase twice.
Where do I get sailboat ?
I want to work along
The blog post with the files is linked in the description of the video
Why does my oval look like an amoeba when I close it instead of a nice pretty oval like yours? I can go and adjust the angles afterwards, but I am wondering if something is set squirley in my software.
Not sure. Probably not the software but something in how you are drawing with points. Our videos are made by someone who has done lots of practice :) I’m sure their first ones were amoeba looking until they learned where to click :)
Also for ovals- why not use the shapes flyout? Support can send screen captures or explain more if you need more info. Http://embrilliance.com/contact-us-2
5:30 I do not have the image button. I have level 1. Maybe I’m missing something?
Never mind, I found it. I had to click on the "create" button. smh
Can i add a jpeg fr the internet and digitize in level 1
Yes! There is a great overview video as well as beginner info on this page. www.Embrilliance.com/start
Hi team! Thank you for providing this video, I understand how to digitize. But what I can't seem to find any information on is how you digitize an embroidery design that is meant to be embroidered on cardstock? I know the stitch length needs to be changed... can you kindly provide any information on this? Type of stitch? Single bean? Stitch length?Thank you 😊❤
You need to choose the stitch types and styles that you want. Study designs that you’ve stitched and measure them to replicate the settings. Enjoy the process.
thank you for your response. I guess my question is, when digitizing using Embrilliance do you know what the correct stitch length is when creating an embroidery design that will be embroidered on cardstock? @@Embrilliance
@@quiltsofhousewives9394 study other designs you have successfully stitched on cardstock. There are so many styles that can be stitched on cardstock- your experience and test sews will help guide you in your artistic choices. Enjoy!
Can stich artist level one digitize photos and logos (eps , jpg files) ?
There is a great overview video as well as beginner info on this page. www.Embrilliance.com/start
Yes, it is digitizing software to create embroidery designs from jpg files. EPS is not supported.
Can you make an applique out of a shape
Sure! Assign the applique stitch type.
how do you turn it into a pes file?
This video shows you exactly how to create a PES file from a graphic!
I would have liked to see the finished boat
check the link in the video description :-) Not only do we give you the graphic files, but you get the BE files to look at in your software! The stitchout of both is shown on the opening scene of the video.
Hello, when I followed long, when i click the fill button, my design looks like rat nest, can you help me please
Best bet is to save your BE file and send to support with your questions. Digitizing is art. There could be 50 things causing the situation.
