Thank you for this lesson. Sometimes it is necessary to go back to the basics.
Yes, I agree with Gail, a light bulb moment. Now you have explained the process of looking ahead to see whether it should be a right or left click, it all makes sense and so much easier to make the decision. Thank you for an informative tutorial.
Gill Scarisbrick your most welcome.
Lightbulb moment here after watching this video - thank you. I was wondering why not all my curves were looking like they should - now I know to look ahead when deciding if it is a right-click or a left-click when digitizing blocks.
Gail Hardock glad to be of assistance.
Learning so much! Thanks for your training videos
Thanks John for the refresher! Can you add to your growing list of topics how to do various satin stitch techniques for wide columns? Eg: random split stitches to help blend away the split? (In Hatch)
How do I set up hatch to join closest object.? Thank you.
John, do you suggest using Wilcom Hatch's "auto spacing" or do you use manual spacing for your satin columns?
I had a digitizing program before i purchased. Hatch. I was able to widen satin stitches by percentage or mm's. Does Hatch have this ?
Do you have to set nearest joins in the settings or is it just there. I have Digitizer MBX V5.
Usually yes, unless I desire to go off “auto-pilot” for some reason.
what is the best pull comp and thickness for small blocks eg small wording
Here's a livestream I did on small lettering :) czcams.com/video/nBbKy7RZy9A/video.html
Thanks :) So once you've made the mistake of crossing over for the block, how do you fix the twist? I made a perfect, long satin block but when I viewed it, there's one small area that is messed up and I can't for the life of me get it to untwist :(
Michael C usually redigitizing the object is the easiest fix, otherwise you need to go in and manually reverse the nodes from each side from the point that you messed up.
@@EmbroideryLegacy Yeah, I tried manually removing and inserting points, but it was just a mess. I ended up "pulling up" the nodes below the twist to meet the nodes above the twist and that worked :). Now there's a secret twist !
Is brother pe design 10 pretty similar to the software you’re using?
NAHH PE DESIGN IS A TRASH , WILCOM IS THE BEST
Very interesting, thank you. What would the advantage be of using this method over, say, outlining a letter with just one segment (say, an "s") as a closed shape then manually adding stitch angles?
Stephen Lorimor personally I find it a bit faster as I’m essentially creating the outline and angles at the same time.
What software is available in the market and where do I purchase them?

It's, when you have something down PAT. A suitcase is packed. Good information though.
Jo Ann Padia once again this proves you learn something new every day :)
