Another excellent video👍. Also, I do believe there are no downsides to the way it is patched; a clean look inside the hat is what I would have preferred. At section 6:20, the embroidered threads are not looking good. The bottom of the “L” and “N” in “Lineman” looks as if it was about to create a top bird's nest. It seems the PP1 isn’t consistent once again. Anyhow, fantastic job!!!!!😎
Ya, it tends to happen in the same spot on this patch. Could definitely be Skitch related, but my other theory is the amount of stitches in that small area. Probably a machine downside.. 😂
great video on the skitch. I have 2 brothers one a dual embroidery and sewing machine and the other is the prs100. I am debating if I want to get this to do small designs like onesies. Only thing you missed was cutting the jump stitches, No biggie but it would have made the patch look cleaner!
If I am being completely honest, I wouldn’t recommend this machine. The software greatly limits the versatility and the machine itself has very few tuning features. I love having one, don’t get me wrong, but had I had one for a month to test, I would not make the purchase again. If it wasn’t $500 I’d say it’s worth having for individual products, but it just seems too expensive for that. Thank you very much for the tip! I was actually curious if I was supposed to cut those or not! 😅😂
@@LadyandTheLineman greatly appreciate the feedback on the machine. I keep going back and forth. Also you are welcome yes sir on some of the larger machines it actually cuts the jump stitch or leaves very few and I thought this one was supposed to of it as well. Use fine detailed scissors to cut those so you can get super close. They turned out great though!
That makes sense! I think it may be another minor defect of the/my machine. I have noticed the jump stitch is removed/cut on some projects, and is not on others. Thanks again!
Hi, nice video! Can I ask you which program you use to create PES files and how to import PES files in the Artspira APP? I notice that in your creation you have some pes files. Thank you soooo much, this would be so precious for me!!
I actually have a few different methods for acquiring PES files: If I make it myself, I usually use Ink/Stitch for lettering/font work Or Hatch Embroidery for pictures (my membership lapsed and it’s very expensive currently) So what I generally do is either find what I’m looking for on Etsy, or I send my digital art to a digitizer (I can connect you if you’d like) and he makes the file for me and sends it back. Let me know if you need more help, thank you for watching!
I outsource my detailed images such as the Deadpool Wolverine Hat on our website, but using ink/stitch or Artspira for Simple font has been easy enough. My digitizer charges $7-$12 per design and is very quick. If you’d like, I can send you his info. Alternatively, you could join an embroidery Facebook group and make a post asking if anyone can digitize a specific file for you. You will be overrun with offers to help. Let me know if you have any more questions
Honestly I would prefer having no inside excess scratching & rubbing my forehead. I believe if a customer came in & had both options shown - they'd probably agree. It's still 100% an embroidered patch but it comes down to whether or not it matches the pros without the cons & if that's the case it's a no-brainer for me
I couldn’t agree more. Also, if you were REALLY tired of the current patch.. you can pull it off and put a new one in its place! 😝 Thanks for your input!
No, but you are limited to 25 files saved in the app when using the free version, and 100 with the paid version. The fact that the machine does not have a usb port is a huge downside in my opinion.
@@LadyandTheLineman Hi there, hope you doing well. Could you tell me please . If we have all 25 positions filled, can we replace them with new samples, removing unnecessary ones?

@@LadyandTheLineman it may be how the file is digitized. Don’t quote me on that though 😂😂

@@LadyandTheLinemanthank you so much!! I didn't start yet but I'll ask you in case I need a digitizer. Thank you again!!!
What brand do you use for the sticky back side? Thanks for the video. I’m on the same boat. :)

Do you create your own files to embroider? Having the ability to or a source to convert my vector designs is the missing link for me.

@@LadyandTheLineman ty. I'm a learner & will be doing my own merch. So I appreciate any tips as useful as something like this.
All the best
@@LadyandTheLineman times are changing 👏
Does thr artspira app still chsrge you monthly to upload uour own designs??
