Color Selection for Fill Stitches for Digital Embroidery Machine Designs

Video Transcript

" Hi! I’m Anne Beckett with Anne’s Embroidery, we’re still working on Sebastian’s bird for Expert Village and right now I am working on the feathers the way Sebastian has drawn them. What I have done is I’ve done what they call a fill and the stitches are going this or the lines are going this way and the drawing therefore the stitches want to go the same way, okay so let’s fill it in. Magic. We need to get from here to here up to the blue without going across the yellow cause I’m going to use where this black is as a way of mapping around it. Oh yeah I don’t want to do that cause this is what we call an under the lay, under the line stitch that you never see or you shouldn’t see once everything is sown, it’s to hold the fabric to the actual underlay plus that you want to basically end up where you want to start the next thing. So I’m going to since I’m still on blue I’m using a split satin stitch because it just looks pretty, it gives it dimension, okay and after this next I’m doing the green so I want to be in that area already."
