I really appreciate this video! I started learning Inkstitch about six months ago, and this was one of the first videos I watched. At the time, it felt really advanced. Now, after months of practice, I see what a jewel it is! You cover so many great features, commands, and tips. If I had understood more back then, it would’ve saved me a lot of time and trouble. Great job, and thank you!

Very neat. Wish we could see what this looks like actually stitched!

This was very helpful, thank you! Is there another video adding a satin stich around the flower? Also, how would you add in the flower details inside each petal ?

Gus, this is an absolutely fantastic walkthrough. Thanks so much!

Thanks for the video, I've just added Inkstitch to the extensions. Easy to follow explanations. I noticed you kept changing the line thickness, might make it a little quicker if you altered the default setting... 🙂

How can you say this is "start" but you do not tell me how to get inkstitch into inkscape?

Thanks for such videos I learned a lot from this great video I really appreciate your work sir

Thank you for sharing your knowledge!

some time back you created a lesson in Inkscape for a merrow stitch motif. I was wondering it you could make the motif so that it would make a sharp corner.

Amazing, thank you for taking the time to share this!

hello, thank you for this video :) i want to do sharp corner for a patch, how satin corner should look like? I need the corner not to fall apart..

Thanks for the video! It's a very clear and easy to follow tutorial. Also thank you for explaining the differences and the reasons why some things need to be done in certain ways, that's also very helpful and informative. It turns your video into a real educational video and not just a how-to follow-me instructions.

dank je wel Gus.

Love your videos, but I would really like to see your stitch out, really.

Thank you very much for another great tutorial!

Excellent tutorial. Can you please explain how you get the satin columns to start with? That is, you start with two approximately vertical bezier paths and a couple of horizontal ones, and then, what is the next step to create the satin stitches? I cannot replicate even the simplest one! Thanks

Gus is there a way to do an oval column?

Un grand merci pour cette vidéo ! J'ai mieux compris les paramètres des colonnes satin ! Super !

you have to hit the solid arrow then go back to what your want to change

are you using sir alot

Wow. Just wow. I tried it and it came out marvelous. At least in it's digital form. Can't wait to see it stitched out. Does it work the best with comletely no underlay?

Nice Gus 👍 thanks for your video 🙏

I haven't done much digitizing lately but still enjoy your videos. Thanks Gus!

Thank you!

I wonder with the clover one if the 1st page was 100% but the rest changed to fit which was why it was bigger. I set things in inkscape and then notice that they have changed by moving the mouse or using the scroll wheel etc.

Thank you so much! You're a lifesaver. The invalid pair error was driving me crazy! Do you have any tips for how to avoid making those invalid pairs in the first place? Thanks!

Thank you Gus. Stroke of genius ( ‾́ ◡ ‾́ )

Wonderful! Thank you.

Gus, I love your tutorial videos! I have a question about convering lines to satin in Inkscape 1.2 / Inkstitch 2.2.0 on my Mac. now when I draw lines and convert them to satin stitches, the rails are going in different directions by default & won't stitch as satin lines until I reverse one of the rails directions. Have you seen this issue, and how can I fix this once instead of every time I make a "custom satin stitch"?

Your tutorials are wonderful. Thank you so much for showing the steps necessary to create a satin stitch. I really appreciate your demonstration of the rungs and the rails. Also reversing the path to get the desired result.

Great analysis. From my experience, 45 or 135 deg angled stitches can greatly reduce stitch count and operation time. Also it gives a more uniform look.

thanks for the vid! I learned the use of Auto-route running stitch!

Great video, highly appreciate that you don‘t edit the parts when the program is not behaving „accordingly“😅

Your tutorials are excellent! Very logical step by step and not too much talking or jumping around with 98 ways to do one thing. Keep it up please!

Thank you for this video, i was having so much trouble with the hole sewing and the invalid par selected error message! you have solved it for me!!

Thank you very much.

inkscape often decides it wants to keep objects in a certain order and ignore you moving them, glad it's not just me it does it too. sometimes I have to save the file, close it and reopen it before inkscape will let me reorder things but sometimes, selecting the object and using the raise/lower buttons will work those jump stitches, you could convert them to running and route them along the other stitches to hide them and give a little more strength to the finished stitch out

Thanks. I find that, with the rectangle, instead of using two rails, one on each side of the curve, placing a single 45° rail directly through the corner works best for me. The same seems to work well for other curves and corners, too.

Please help. Is there anyway to put a border on text that was created in the Lettering Extensions? I don’t know how to remove the lines it’s created

Ripples is a very, very exciting feature in Inkstitch. Thanks!

my inkscape boarder is black. how do I get it to appear like your program?

Hi Gus - when I draw a line - I used be able to see the path arrows on my line. But now I am not seeing them. Do you know how I can make it come back? I must have clicked on to something that made it disappeared. Thank you.

Thanks always Gus! Great stuff!

Thank you for teaching us!!! Very Helpful!!!

Thanks Gus! This really helped me out. You're the best!

Thanks!

Thanks for the video! You're missing a step though. The reason it stopped (and started where it did) was because of the placement of the start and stop commands. Once you add these commands, you'll notice that they get added in their own layers and include a circle and a line. As you drag the circle (the icon that represents that start/stop point), the line gets updated automatically. The end of this line -where it connects to your design- represents the exact point these commands will be executed at. So adding the start/stop commands is not enough; you also need to drag them to the exact location you want them. In your design, you could have made the machine start and stop in the flower stem if you had dragged the commands all the way to the bottom.

thanks for video

This is a very interesting workflow for creating a pattern. Thank you for posting! Is there a process for creating, say, a 'weave' repeating pattern in a large fill object like some other software can do?

Il me semble qu'il vaut mieux réduire la largeur de la sous-couche de contour plutôt que de modifier les points courts qui sont précieux pour éviter les amas de points dans les angles.
