Discover Soni’s tried and true list of principles for digitizing embroidery designs — the ones you’ll go back to over and over again as you begin with a blank canvas and place every stitch yourself. It’s a mental shift, as you realize YOU are the digitizer. You’ll discover over time that you’re developing your own personal style — each digitizer’s designs have similar patterns, and yours will too.
With that in mind, Soni has put together a logical, reliable sequence for creating a design, and offers her fool-proof tips along the way. As each principle is discussed, see clearly demonstrated techniques, each illustrated with samples of finished embroidery designs. You’ll find lots of practical guidance and inspiration, as you realize there is more than one way to digitize a design! Explore what should be digitized first, second, third and so on (and why), how to use the different types of stitches effectively, and how to place each for efficient, beautiful stitch-outs.
All Start Anytime courses, are self-paced, and you can begin the moment you register, viewing the course anytime that is convenient for you. Many students watch it through one time first, and then go back to work alongside the instructor with their own project activities.
Soni Grint has been sewing since she was 8 years old. Her embroidery career began when she combined her formal education (M.S. Optical Physics / Computers) and her love of fabric and sewing. She started working with a sewing machine dealership in San Diego, California before she moved to central California, where she worked a short time for White Sewing Machines.
The real break through came when she was asked to be a part of Viking Sewing Machines Product Council in Huskvarna Sweden. She represented the market place expressing what people want in their embroidery and embroidery software. She traveled frequently to the product developers in both Sweden and London England. Soni lived in Jonkoping Sweden for two years as she headed up Husqvarna Viking and Pfaff’s international education departments. After coming back to the United States, she continued with her love of embroidery and sewing while heading up the Software department of Husqvarna Viking and Pfaff, eventually becoming the Global Product Manager for this division.
Soni now directs her own sewing, embroidery and software consulting business. She travels throughout the United States holding seminars and training sessions sharing her joy of sewing with others.
