Thank you! I’d rather learn this than pay for hatch!!!

[@keiralewellen2902]

Thank you so much for these tutorials! This is exactly what I needed, so glad I found your channel. I would love to see a basic patch tutorial built in Ink/Stitch!

[@CamilleTheCancer]

Thank you!

Thanks for this video. I already watched some of your videos as you take your time to explain why you do certain things. Most of the stuff you showed I had already seen in your previous vids but it's a nice summary/refreshment. Didn't know the flatten image... remember you used so subtract objects to cut them out or you could start from a png to trace them back... this is much better😅. Maybe one thing you could show to people beginning as I'm also still learning (2 months tinkering in spare time) is maybe showing how to group objects by fill or stroke color and put them in a good logical sequence to avoid having to switch colors more than needed on the machine. Thanks again! Looking forward on learning more

Tha k you for the reply. It's refreshing to hear that I'm good for repeating myself. As you get older you like to hear that's ok lmaolol... The grouping by fill color and objects list will be on the fill video.

I just wanted to say thank you so much for your tutorials. Last week I bought a brother se700 and was surprised to see how much hatch was for what I wanted to do as a novice. These tutorials saved my life and now I can embroider my heart out.

[@learebecca8285]

Thank you so much for these tutorials. I keep wondering why other programs cost hundreds of dollars while ink/stitch is free for everyone to use. It seems to me like you can do everything you need to do for embroidery with ink/stitch. What's so different about those expensive programs?

[@LoVeisnevertheawnser]

The difference is the amount of time you’re willing to spend learning a program. I’m a newbie to machine embroidery and I have the 30 day hatch trial and from what I can tell I was able to take my drawings with little effort and make it a digitized file with basically 2-3 clicks of a button in hatch. Versus with Inkscape you really have to do your research and learn how to do everything. But yes you can basically do everything hatch has to offer in Inkscape. It’s just more work 😅

Thank you for the amazing tutorial! Very detailed and easy to follow and understand! absolute pleasure to watch :)

[@LowTechLinux]

thank you

[@rebeccajenkins2834]

can you do a video on splitting a design

[@LowTechLinux]

I'll do it. Been meaning to do that again for quite some time now. Not sure how soon but it's on the list

[@plutorocks1]

waiting for new distro contents or related to opensuse

[@LowTechLinux]

It's coming. I'm doing the inkstitch series then I'm moving the channel in a Linux only direction. Except I am fixing to throw in a review of cosmic alpha

[@plutorocks1]

@@LowTechLinux Eager to see what's next. Cheers!

[@angieseamans6490]

Quick question, the font I chose to follow along did not have a stroke outline. Will this only work with specific fonts?

[@LowTechLinux]

If it's a system font go into fill and stroke and set fill, no stroke. Duplicate that layer and go into fill and stroke on that new layer. Set no fill, stroke, set stroke to about 1.5 mm. Inkstitch > tools: satin > convert line to satin
