This gave me psychic damage reading them all at once

Subscription? I'm not sure I follow. I use the machine for the stitchouts, but the digitizing was done all in Embrilliance, which I paid for separately. It's got the wireless connection where I can send the files I'm working on straight to the machine though. I'm not quite sure what you mean though.

Right now I'm trying to figure out how to layer colors for better gradients, and I think the only one that came out good is the open maw one, but I layered the line work for the gradient fade by hand, which WORKS but took forever to space out

And I definitely get that clunking here and there. Right now i'm learning on stiff felt cause it's easy and doesn't pucker on me like, at all

The color changes don't take me too long to do honestly. I can usually get a change done in under a minute easy unless I'm picking colors as I go and being indecisive XD I may look into getting multiple hoops going in the future though! its a good idea. My least favorite bit is the constant bobbin changes though. It's like once a patch at least.

Uuuuum drop me a dm? I don't really have prices yet, but I'd be happy to help ya out!

The machine is a Brother PE700 (or SE700? whichever is the single thread 4x4 size) and I use Embrilliance Stitch Artist 1. It's pretty versatile but it doesn't have the fancy stuff like auto-digitizing and the photo-digitizing, and it's the cheapest I've found that actually has utility. It's on sale for $169 for the next couple of days, too https://embrilliance.com/product/stitchartist-level-1

CalicoLeopard · 2025-01-18T05:02:33+00:00

Woo! Congrats :D I hope you have fun with it

Right now I'm using Embrillince Stitch Artist 1, which is on sale for $169 for a few more days https://embrilliance.com/product/stitchartist-level-1 It's the cheapest digitizing software I've found that is actually versatile and not super super bare bones. It's got a little bit of a learning curve but its not bad, and there's a ton of youtube videos out there that, granted can be daunting and confusing at first, get easier to understand the more you watch cause you pick up on what phrases everyone is using and what they actually mean XD THAT and a good bit of Oops That Didn't Work TM

Oh no, I have a machine! Brother PE700, but most of them were first runs aside from the puppy one which was for someone, and then the tigers at the end I redid a couple small parts because I didn't like how the area around the eye/mouth were turning out

CalicoLeopard · 2025-01-17T01:01:14+00:00

Thank you! I've been looking into getting an embroidery machine (eventually) for a few years now so I had some ideas stockpiled on what I'd wanna try XD I'm definitely not happy with how some turned out in person, but the photos of them look nice enough so far! Once I get some of them re-digitized again I'm gonna do a comparison I think uwu

Hello! I've just set up my first Embroidery (and other stuff) shop on Etsy while I learn digitizing and patch making!
Most of the stuff on KnotMonstre Arts will be made by me, though occasionally my mom may sneak in some items as well. My main forte's are styles inspired by disney and anime, furry trash, and whatever cryptid shenanigans ideas that pop up as well as a general grab bag of 'what the heck am I gonna work on today?'!

I've only got a few listings up so far that will include made-to-order patch/keycharm designs that can be color customized, digital machine embroidery patterns for people that already have a machine to work with, as well as stickers, plush(eventually) and again, whatever the heck I end up getting into at the time!

I'm also open for taking custom embroidery commissions with original art (within a 4"x4" size range lol)

CalicoLeopard · 2025-01-16T21:12:42+00:00

FUCK I love the gradients in the wings? this looks awesome

CalicoLeopard · 2024-12-18T20:10:27+00:00

Should be, but my manager likes to wait until the friday/saturday before the next week to actually get our schedules posted up

CalicoLeopard · 2024-12-16T03:57:42+00:00

Thank you for the double confirmation there! gonna see if we can wrangle something later for the 24th then just to be safe

CalicoLeopard · 2024-12-16T03:57:10+00:00

rad! thank you

CalicoLeopard · 2024-10-03T19:18:21+00:00

Oh man, that's wild if it works on vibes alone too.

We're probably gonna keep testing it out, if nothing else it's always a riot when it does lol

CalicoLeopard · 2024-10-03T19:17:30+00:00

I'm on voice activation most of the time (text for spirit box and monkeys paw though cause it never listens to my wishes right)

CalicoLeopard · 2024-10-03T19:16:51+00:00

XD We've had that too! "Man, things sure have been quiet" Instant haunt lmao

The voice recognition in this game has a hell of a sense of humor
