February 2010: Letter from Lindee

Here we are in the midst of National Embroidery Month and I hope you’re celebrating it appropriately! If not, here are some ways to grow your skills and share your love beyond the special Valentines in your life.

Free Weekly Digitizing Workshop Webinars

Please join us for a live weekly digitizing workshop generously hosted by embroidery.com and yours truly. Together, James Lyman or Darin Andersen and I will be hosting this free webinar demonstrating digitizing techniques to answer your burning questions.

Topics covered so far: auto digitizing a hand drawn image, creating redwork from an image downloaded from the internet, free-standing lace, Building Blocks, monograms, and motifs.

New! Quick Projects for Digitizers

If you have some basic experience with Generations and just want to learn some specific techniques, then these new Quick Projects are just the thing!

These projects are designed to teach you new ways of using your digitizing software to create a specific embroidery technique or learn how to use specific tools in Generations™. You can pick and choose from a growing library to learn the types of techniques you are most interested in learning. In time, projects will be added for other digitizing programs.

Embroidery Tip

  • Your embroidery is not finished until the last trimming is done. Use tweezers to pull up the thread on the front and snip closely to the fabric. The tension will stretch the thread and after clipping will disappear into the fabric. Leave thread tails on the back 1/4” to 1/2” long to prevent raveling. Trimming too closely can cut lock stitches.

Mission

To inspire and nurture personal creativity and productivity by connecting embroiderers and digitizers with innovative, high-quality products and information that significantly elevate their enjoyment and experience while maximizing the use of technology. In other words, more toys and more fun!
