Embroidery Software 201: Editing an Existing Design

If you’ve looked at a design and thought “I’d really love this if only it had two flowers instead of three, and it had a different background stitch ... ” or “if only I could use my machine cutwork needles with this design ...” well, this is the session for you! Editing allows you to do all of that and more, as you add to your embroidery software expertise.
Write your awesome label here.
Learn how and where to add color stops, how to deal with jump stitches and extra stitches left behind, how to isolate parts of your design so you can work effectively and so much more, including how to create an applique from an existing embroidery design.

As always, Soni’s logical steps, repetitive habits and full explanations allow you to build your skills easily, and quickly. She’ll advise you about analyzing a design before you start to edit, why some designs are more easily edited than others, what makes a design a good choice for an applique and, of course, how to see your design develop before you even thread your needle.

Soni’s teaching style, honed over many years teaching both professionals and enthusiasts online and at live events, has been described as “the perfect combination of clarity and detail.” The lessons are not long – but WOW! Are they ever packed with information! Not a word is wasted as she clearly shows and discusses the "why and how" for each change she’s making on the screen. Her logical approach is so clear, even a beginner-beginner can easily understand each step in the process! Finished embroideries illustrate the results, as you get excellent advice at every turn.   

Follow along at home, as you become proficient using Soni’s easy path to success. You can work alongside her, making the same changes at home she’s making on screen, then stitch out your results. You’ll soon be making changes to all sorts of designs with confidence.
