Just purchased my first home embroidery machine. I am very tech savvy and would like to learn digitizing. My daughter is an artist and I would love to bring her designs to life in my quilts. February 2,2024.
ngl being the last person alive trained on a certain machine is a pretty cool flex! thank you for the course. i get my sewing/embroidery machine in the mail in 5 days and am excited to start playing with it.
I’m watching on February 6, 2024. Honestly, I don’t even have an embroidery machine yet! I’m just getting into sewing. I bought my first machine 2 weeks ago, a Brother CS7000x. I’m also a Sew It Academy student. I’m just going down the TH-cam rabbit hole right now because I’ve been eyeing a Brother pe900 to get started with embroidery. Hoping to learn as much as I can!
I’m watching on February 25th 2023. I have only begun my embroidery journey a few weeks ago, I’m excited to unlock all my creativity and see where embroidery can take me 🙏❤️
Watching April 12, 2024. I have a 9 needle Brother BE-0901E-AC that is over 20 years old. My daughter bought it when she was 12 years old and used it's out dated software for her in home embroidery business. Now that she is married and moving on she gave it to me. It still works amazing so I finally invested in Hatch software! I still use 3.5" floppy discs to transfer my designs.
Starting my embroidery digitizing journey today, March 11, 2024! Coming at this with zero previous knowledge of the subject. Hoping to learn from the best right off the hop. Thanks John!
I’m watching this on 2.27.24 so happy I came across this video, I am looking forward to growing my business. Bought a single needle machine in Oct. 2023 and have been in love with embroidery ever since, thanks for this video! I wish I could have seen how embroidery was done when you learned it, that looks very interesting!
I'm watching this course on January 13, 2023. I've been learning so much from your website about embroidery and have purchased a few embroidery files that have stitched out nicely on my BabyLock Meridian. I just purchased one of the digitizing software programs and haven't been able to understand how it all works until now. This is a wonderful start to understanding the basics, and I look forward to learning so much more. Thank you for all you do!
Good Morning! I found your videos September 15, 2023. I am very new to embroidery and I feel your videos are so helpful. I cant thank you enough for them. God Bless
This class is the best, I’m been embroidering for last 4 years, I decided to take the digitizing class, the best decision I made. I own embroidery machine 10 needle Ricoma with Chroma software. I’m taking Floriani version that is similar to chroma. Not regret!
I am watching this on November 5th and was confused at first until I watched your videos,it helped me so much and hopefully start my own business soon ❤️
I have been searching, studying and reading about different digitizing software and the kind of support I may get to use the program for the past 3 months. I am very happy that I have bought Hatch software. I am much more satisfy after I noticed that I am receiving emails non-stop contains links to educational articles, demonstrative and descriptive videos and much guidance to walk me through. Thank Mr. Deer and thank to your amazing team/ family. This video is another informative and useful video.
Thank goodness i found this. Been looking to get into embroidery as a small business as me and the wife needed a change of pace. Invested a few thousand dollars into a Janome memory craft 550E and got digitizing software with it. Only after many hours of struggle (i was seriously up until 2am last night bagging my head against a wall) do i now realize i have so much to learn and i have answers as to why my designs are stiff and distorted. Also bobbin thread has been showing on top etc etc. Signed up for the trial immediately and am hoping i can learn the hatch software as i am currently despising artistic digitizer jnr atm. Wish me luck (August 13 2022)
I left this field in 1999 before fabric assist was a thing, but I'm grateful it exists now so that a single design can be reused without manually altering stitch settings in an EMB file. Not surprised Wilcom remains the industry leader; we started out when it was still a DOS application with a puck-based digitizing board and our digitizer pool was 50/50 art school grads/production workers to ensure creativity while avoiding horrendous problems. I'm sorry I had to transition to another field (relocated to somewhere without a local shop) but I also think I left at the top of my game. I might have mentioned the importance of double running stitches on wearables, but we were a polo knit shirt shop. Good video.
Hello! I really enjoyed your 101 lesson!! You are correct, I have my software and all they really showed me is where the features are but didn't really explain what they do. I watched your video on March 30, 2024.
I am so happy that you have this course available! I really want to do photos in embroidery so that they don't look like "a child ran wild with my Solaris!" Thank-you for allowing me this opportunity to do this!😊
September 16, 2023. Trying to purchase a semi machine to try and learn the basics. I also bought my ticket for the 65th anniversary webinar. Long journey begins!
I'm watching on 11th April 2024 and thank you for these amazing videos, I'm new to embroidery and about to purchase my first machine and want to learn as much as possible beforehand.
I am watching April 3, 2023. I've learned so much from your videos and lives and I want to learn so much more. I'm totally hooked on it. I've seen beautiful designs and wish to create my own and maybe start a business. I've also seen some terrible outcomes from some companies and have been shocked at how bad they were and I don't want to do that ever. So, let's go. Learn from the best so there's no regret. I'm so excited!
I’m watching 2/4/24. I purchased Hatch Digitizer & my SE1900 a while back but haven’t used it to its potential. It’s intimidating but I’m on a path to build my business on this ♥️
Watching August 26th, 2024, I have access to a Brother F 540E Embroidery machine and all the necessary supplies at my local library, sans digitizing software. I am just dipping my toes in the water so to speak. This looks like a huge creative opportunity.
I'm watching this today 4/13/22 as I learn to use my Elissimo Gold II. I purchased my first machine in 2001 a singer, then my second one a used Ellageo, in 2010, finally I got my current machine this year. So I'm a bit behind in learning digitizing. I purchased digitizing software back in 2012, but now it is no longer supported by the manufacturer, so I'm playing catch-up and have been traumatized by unfriendly programs that are difficult. I hope I learn at least the basics by watching this.
I have an Ellegante, I saw you mentioned Ellageo and Ellisimo Gold, which I believe is also Babylock. Which digitizing software did you get in 2012 & if you've purchased something new recently, which one was it? I originally (2012) looked into their software, but at that time, it was out of range of affordability
08/06/2022 Starting my digitizing journey. Somehow Trust is the first word comes to our minds when we were thinking about your company therefore we decided to enroll to this training course and we will order a ZSK machine through your company. As I said all of that was based on trust. Hopefully my wife will be able to quit her job and start her own business with my help as digitizer of our designs.
Hi John, I'm watching your video 101 for the first time, I've been searching youtube for information to learn how to use my new Brothers SE630 I just purchased. Thank you so much for your videos I'm excited to have found the BEST! in the industry. Chat soon!
I’m new to your channel recently purchased a Brothers SE2000 and just wanted to familiarize myself with digitizing and how to embroidery the right way.. Thanks (6-6-2024 )
Starting my digitizing journey on 12/10/2022! Just purchased Hatch via Digitizing Made Easy/John Deer’s Embroidery Legacy and very excited to see all the available training and to get started!!
Such a helpful video! I'm new to embroidery but am jumping into it for fun projects. This was super thorough. Thank you very much for examining everything so it was easy to understand everything.
I'm watching on April 20, 2022. Thanks for this course. It's helped me understand digitizing terminology better. I've downloaded & printed the the cheat Sheet which I'm sure I'll refer to often.
I'm watching on October 17, 2023. I have not yet bought an embroidery machine but am interested in getting one to make tote bags and labels for my yarn shop. I wanted to do some research first!
Thinking about purchasing an embroidery Machine & thought it would be a good idea to learn digitizing. As a beginner, researching what the best for a beginner.
Thank you so much for this video, ever since I started learning you have been the best for info to understanding and the hatch program is my favorite I've tried of the digitizing programs. So helpful and it's literally changing my life
I have been stumped on digitizing for 25 years plus. I have invested tons of dollars into software that has left me hanging. I got promises from dealers that never came through once I bought their product. I have been sewing since 1958. I have been making men's suits and shirts, all my kid's clothes until they entered high school and then some, wedding gowns, formals, boat covers, car seat covers and headliners, design and sew handbags for 55 years and so on, but this is the one thing I can't get. I even hang drywall and do carpenter work. When I need something, I build it. I still can't get digitizing. I am old now and it's on my bucket list. I am going to come to you and if I don't get it this time, it's the one thing I haven't been able to do with all my arts. I do stained glass and paint as well in all mediums. I paint on fabric. I'd love to be able to add embroidery to that. This video is great. A lot of the stuff I knew but there is also a good deal I didn't know, and I really appreciate this video. It's very clear on the subject matter. Thank you so much for your time and caring. It shows.
Starting on Sep 8 2024 I'm doing my own original designs (including my fashion brand logo) and copying images (pdf files and other logos). I'm an experienced hand embroiderer, but I'm using a Brother PE900 embroidery machine.
Thank you, Now I know what this words actually mean. I have Hatch 3 and I get confused at times. I have to go back and look at it again. I really like Hatch software, and John Deer and crew are very helpful.
Very good short presentation on the fundamentals of embroidering. Will definetly be getting some of the classes and try the Hatch program. Now I just have to see if it will work on the si gle needle Meistergram dinosaur I have 😄.
I'm getting to know my Babylock Solaris 2. My dealer included digitizing software, a generous addition, and I can see that there is a LOT to learn. After experimenting and watching a lot of utube videos, I agree there is a lot of information out there. I'm signing up for your 101 course because I've heard all those terms in this video and need more information. Thank you so much.

I have been stumped on digitizing for 25 years plus. I have invested tons of dollars into software that has left me hanging. I got promises from dealers that never came through once I bought their product. I have been sewing since 1958. I have been making men's suits and shirts, all my kid's clothes until they entered high school and then some, wedding gowns, formals, boat covers, car seat covers and headliners, design and sew handbags for 55 years and so on, but this is the one thing I can't get. I even hang drywall and do carpenter work. When I need something, I build it. I still can't get digitizing. I am old now and it's on my bucket list. I am going to come to you and if I don't get it this time, it's the one thing I haven't been able to do with all my arts. I do stained glass and paint as well in all mediums. I paint on fabric.

You got this Kathy! I’m on the same journey along side you. It’s 5am here and learning about this software is the first thing I’m doing this morning.
I'm starting April 4th!! Really hoping this helps me kickstart my new etsy shop!!
Thank you so much. I am watching on October 19, 2023
Starting on Sep 8 2024 I'm doing my own original designs (including my fashion brand logo) and copying images (pdf files and other logos). I'm an experienced hand embroiderer, but I'm using a Brother PE900 embroidery machine.
Brand new to embroidery completely! Watching 7/19/2024. Hoping to succeed! :D
Wow! I appreciate digitizers much more now.
Thank you, Now I know what this words actually mean. I have Hatch 3 and I get confused at times. I have to go back and look at it again. I really like Hatch software, and John Deer and crew are very helpful.
Very good short presentation on the fundamentals of embroidering.
Will definetly be getting some of the classes and try the Hatch program. Now I just have to see if it will work on the si gle needle Meistergram dinosaur I have 😄.
Hi just got my embroidery Machine and now I want to learn how to digitize
I am watching 4/14/22 and I just purchased a Ricoma MT 1501. I also have a Brother Dreamweaver XE
I look forward to learning more! Thanks for the information!
16 February had my machine for almost 18 months.
watching April 14, 2022. Am wanting to do more and create simple projects. Thank you for all that you offer.
I'm getting to know my Babylock Solaris 2. My dealer included digitizing software, a generous addition, and I can see that there is a LOT to learn. After experimenting and watching a lot of utube videos, I agree there is a lot of information out there. I'm signing up for your 101 course because I've heard all those terms in this video and need more information. Thank you so much.
Hope you enjoy the course! You've got this, appreciate the comment! :)

So happy to hear that! Thanks for watching :)
3/12/23! Doing my research before buying a digitizer software. Trying to decide between hatch and design doodler
Always best to try before you buy and remember, the proof is in the stitching :)
Thank you so much for all of your course , have a beautiful Easter week-end
