" Hi! I’m Anne Beckett with Anne’s Embroidery in Austin, Texas. Now I need to change to a different type of stitch because that’s so thin, we don’t want to try to do a tagemey stitch actually I can show you the difference on there but I’m choosing a tagemey stitch as a flat stitch. The options are it is a type of a back stitch and the options are to when the machine sows it’ll sew in a line, jump over and sew back, jump over and sew back, so it’s a nice flat stitch. I’m going to go with we call a satin stitch which is just a zigzag type of type zigzag type of stitch, depending on the fabric that you’re using, we’re using wool this time and so I want to have it at least .4 the spacing for the actual rolls of stitching. This program is so easy in fact I’m going to intentionally in a second I’m going to make a mistake so I can show how easy it is to go back and fix that mistake, this will make that really fat there, see that’s a mistake but you’ll see I’ll go back and fix it. I’m also faster than most embroiders so I charge by the hour rather than by the stitches cause this is going to be a lot of stitches but it’s not going to take a lot of time, I studied the actual software the book that comes with the software, it’s a huge book that comes with it I studied it for a good six months before I started actually digitizing and boy I use to be really bad."
