#InkStitch
Bisschen unsauber an den Rändern, aber für die erste selber erstellte Stickdatei über #Inkstitch wirklich ok.

For some reason, my machine won't listen to the cut commands that InkStitch will write, but it'll cut if it's a color change. So I'm tricking the embroidery with different colors so I don't have to trim most of the tiny sewing jumps.

since i'm getting my own embroidery machine finally (!!!!!!) i'm looking into embroidery digitising software and most of it's rly expensive but I've found a couple free options like inkstitch and ember and am watching some tutorials on using them

Inkscape is awesome! So is Inkstitch for machine embroidery!

Playing around with updating an "old" patch design for the 6-needle machine. Still touching these up before stitching them out.

Fun that I am able to work on these on my Steam Deck.

I did this. I drew it on InkScape, converted it to InkStitch, solved issues, and stitched it with my embroidery machine twice to make a border.

The design is simple, but I am stupidly proud of myself. Now to stitch it on my daughter's RenFest costume!

There's a Discord!

(NOTE if you are reading this and are a digitizer who would like to spam everyone, don't bother: we're a bunch of hobbyists who don't hire digitizers, we use Inkstitch and premades. You'll just catch a ban and make it on The List Of Skeevy Digitizers)

Neuer Versuch (rechts unten). Leider war die oberfadenspannung zu hoch und deshalb sieht man den schwarzen unterfaden teilweise. Außerdem ist mir zwei mal der oberfaden gerissen (fadenspannung?) und zwei mal die Nadel abgebrochen. #inkstitch #machineembroidery

also be aware that embroidery programs can be extremely pricey, but inkstitch is a free alternative when you start. :D

some brands also have free apps i think? like, brother has an app for making embroidery patterns but i havent tried that one myself... 🤔

Gibt es hier jemanden, di:er #inkstitch regelmäßig benutzt und Bock auf ne Art Co-working hätte? Man arbeitet an eigenen Entwürfen, aber sitzt online zusammen und kann sich gegenseitig helfen.

2 steps forward, 2.5 steps back. I'm improving with inkstitch but I still have lots of room to grow.

First rough of Adventurer 2's face.

The offset thing isn't inkstitch but inkscape itself.

The biggest downside is that the easy programs for digitizing (converting art into things you can embroider) cost like $2000, which is more than the machine, especially if you get a little one like mine.

I’m getting better with InkStitch, which is free, but it doesn’t have the same functionality.

If you wonder what goes into the patches I'm making: I'm using an extension for the program InkScape called InkStitch! It converts a vectored image to something an embroidery machine can read, and you can do something similar to a merrowed edge (it's a bitch to outline, you have to do it manually)

Ugh, I love making patches but I wish I still had the good software. The InkStitch stuff isn’t terrible it just takes a lot more effort to create.

I’m getting better at it, it’s just taking a lot of thread.

Not bad for using InkStitch (the freebie program)
April 2, 2026 at 12:05 AM
im no embroidery doctor but very happy with this

-used an SS of the original plush's shirt text
-put it into inkstitch to get the vector
-digitized in inkstitch

added hook/loop as the back closure

just need to finish wingies

Ich benutze InkScape mit InkStitch als Erweiterung. Das ist kostenlos.
Ich nehme mal an im Vergleich zu anderer Software wahrscheinlich sehr basic, aber für mich reicht und klappt das gut.

I currently use InkStitch, which is free and works for simple designs but is lacking (and requires knowledge of vectors)

The process of creating a design from scratch for our new embroidery machine is quite fiddly and the supplied software limited. Members have been coming up with a workflow for inkstitch.org that means we can use open source software to produce designs for it. We're almost there...

I clearly have a lot of adjusting to do with tollerence, tension, whatever, but its a proof of concept!
I also need to figure out how satin fills work in inkstitch

A software like Embrilliance, InkStitch, Hatch..... will allow you to customize & digitize (aka build stitch files)
