Absolutely the best video I’ve been able to find on blending and shading! Your teaching technique was spot on! Thank you so very much!!!
Top class video ... Really appreciate the time you took to make this video. Waiting for more videos
Thanks! More digitizing videos coming so stay tuned!
WOW! Thank you soOoo much!!!
Yes, love to see lots of testing just to see what will look better, specially because sometimes things look bad on screen but awesome embroidered.
yup when in doubt, test it!
Amazing! I just started with Hatch and appreciate all the effort this video needed.
Great video, thanks for sharing
❤ Thank you so much for so wonderful detail and complete explanation. Amazing work 🥰🌹🌷👍
Very clear instructions thanks for sharing your knowledge : )
You are welcome and glad it was helpful for you!
thanks for the video. these are some advance digitizing
This is a spectacular video!
fantastic! Just what I needed
Thank you for providing your insights on this. Great lesson!
Thank you so much for this video. I've been trying to shade a flower design that I digitized and nothing was looking good or right. I tried to do what you suggested after watching the video and now I need to see if it's going to look ok when I stitch it out. One question, did you do the petals of the flower separately or as one big flower?
Glad you are finding it helpful! For the flowers, I did each petal separately because I wanted each petal to have a different stitch angle
@@lashleycreations Thanks for letting me know.
Hey i love your digitizing. I recently bought hatch 3 and the default tatami spacing is 0.016 is this the same setting that would afect the density?
Thanks for watching! And yes the tatami spacing is what controls the density. 0.016 sounds like you have your program set to display in inches vs millimeters, so you might want to switch to mm as it is easier to adjust the spacing
@@lashleycreations thanks a million
Great video, love your sharing,
What fabric is that white fabric with the speckles on it, I WANT IT!!!
I got it from Joann Fabric Store. Its cotton fabric with silver glitter on it. Really love how the glitter shines on embroidery projects.
I love your videos! Do you think Hatch is worth the money?
Sorry the late reply here! But YES I absolutely think Hatch is worth the money. It's been a great investment for me and I don't see myself needing to use any other software.
