How to create a ragged edge applique patch

Torn edge applique is perhaps the simplest type of applique that exists in machine embroidery. It is easy to execute and easy to digitize. This applique is very economical in stitching. I will be looking at the method of trimming the excess applique fabric by hand right in the wiper. https://medium.com/@dbuckley593/inscriptions-in-machine-embroidery-several-rules-for-digitizing-small-letters-with-satin-6d89a91a2a1a?showDomainSetup=true https://note.com/glassmirror/n/n8dd5493bafad https://www.bloglovin.com/@brookeroberts7/machine-embroidery-color-basic-concepts https://sole-digitizing.blogspot.com/2021/03/vector-control-in-embroidery-programs.html https://www.evernote.com/shard/s323/client/snv?noteGuid=282b5fcc-71a3-4125-dd0e-d2e1a2ddf334&noteKey=f251ddfa6d789c4ad4a93fde6c65beec&sn=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.evernote.com%2Fshard%2Fs323%2Fsh%2F282b5fcc-71a3-4125-dd0e-d2e1a2ddf334%2Ff251ddfa6d789c4ad4a93fde6c65beec&title=Fonts.%2BAnatomy https://soledigitization.bcz.com/2021/03/25/

Create cutwork by cutting holes with scissors

  I seriously took up the issue of creating cutwork on an online embroidery digitizing . I decided once and for all to work out the technique of creating a program for myself and to deal with the technological process of manual cutting in order to remove this question for myself forever. I have come across this type of embroidery quite often before. I even developed designs once, drawing them in CorelDraw. I'm not an artist though. Like most designers who draw for embroidery, I never thought before how to make a drawing so high quality that it could then be embroidered. To take into account all the nuances (what can be done and what is not recommended), it is necessary to understand well the creation and technology of creating embroidery. Hmmm ... And therefore, there were some complaints from the embroiderers about the created pattern. Indeed, for the most part, the final appearance of the product depends on the idea. In my grandmother's bins, I found a curtain with cutwor

Vector control in embroidery programs

  I suppose it's worth going back and taking a closer look at what vector illustrations are, which I already mentioned in passing in the post on Types of embroidery digitizing illustrations. All vectors are defined mathematically by a set of coordinates on a plane. The shapes of the objects are determined by the path created by the Bezier curve. The angles and shape of curves are determined by points (nodes) and their groups. I don’t want to look at specialized graphics software like Adobe Illustrator and CorelDraw right now. With them, and so everything is clear - these editors are sharpened for graphics. I want to consider what capabilities the user has in the embroidery editors. After all, embroidery programs all work with a vector.   I will try to explain why this mustache is so attractive from my point of view in working with vectors. Classically, there are 4 types of points in a vector drawing:   1. Straight - straight kink. The point has no mustache. All sides
