Digitizing Tips:
Create a digitizing plan:
Decide which shapes to trace first – look at the image and think of it as layers. Trace the layers in back first. Trace the shapes that should stitch first and leave the details for last.
Here are some suggestions for this image:
- trace the yellow moon circle first
- trace the text
- trace the bats and witch hat
Determine the stitch tools for each shape:
Consider what stitch to use for tracing each shape. Here are some suggestions for this image:
- moon – applique
- text – text tool
- bats – fill stitch – (trace one – copy, paste and resize to create the others)
- witch’s hat – fill stitch
Digitizing Steps:
Follow these 5 digitizing steps for each shape, as a guide, to get you started.
