Congratulations! I am a professional embroidery digitizer (Wilcom) this software (inkstich) is very simple and the best for novice users! I´m from Brazil !
I wish I had found this before I spend many hours trying to figure out what I did wrong in my personal created art (I get a little obsessive compulsive when something does not work). This has been wonderful in showing what I did wrong and how to fix it. Thank you so very much. You two did an exceptional job.
Something id love to see is a break down of the settings for the params menu. What does what and what small changes to the coloumns change the design. Great job on the vid and ive been using your videos to learn how to make designs. Just would love to see a break down of what the options can do as i stare at them blankly every time lmao
Thank you. I am watching again. Still learning how to get the outline to be satin and the orders. This helped a lot. Will follow along as I create something. So much to learn. You both explain things very well! Keep it up!
another trick i learned when doing color fills. instead of adjusting scale and shifting. You can enable stroke, make it the same color, and adjust stroke width to fill the gaps
Thank you so much for an informative video that I could understand. I have watched a few videos about using Inkscape to digitize an image but none were as understandable as yours. Once again, thank you!
I've gotta say, you two do well teaching this! I had dreaded the idea of having to buy expensive software, especially when this tool is available for use without needing to pay out the nose. You just need to be willing to take the time and go through it!
Great video. Thank you! I've learned so much from you about Inkscape/ Inkstitch. I'm trying to figure out how to subtract one shape from another, so thread doesn't get laid down under an object (as in text over a shape). It isn't as intuitive as one might think it is. :)
Nice to see a mac user doing this you can also adjust the fill by changing the threshold and/or growshrink by sating stitch/outline - you could try centre line trace in inkscape 1.0 and above - that might work as it will give just the single line you can then set to the width you want. to select the black you can right click on hte black object and select select same stroke. it should then select all the black which you can then move to the new layer (create the new layer first of course)
Hi there. Thanks for the tutorial. it helped me a lot. I downloaded the program 6 months ago but I got discouraged and paid someone to digitize my project. They did a great job, but will try again. I did one using the auto stitching and will see how it stitches out, but the 2nd would not work. Perhaps it is the image type I imported? Will try again with your tips.
Hi guys Love the video. It's exactly what I'm looking for. I've been watching low tech Linux too which has been helpful. I just wanted to ask a question about the berries. I notice the top of the is very thin. Is there a way to a a slightly thicker stick to just the top? Or maybe a better way to ask is, is there a way to add a thick edge to the whole image to make sure I can sew it after it's been made?
Hi guys, great video. I´ve found a solution how you can avoid the "error: Fill: Shape is not valid. This can happen if the border crosses over itself.". Highlight your design/object and go to: - Extensions - Ink/Stich - Fill Tools - Break Apart Fill Objects This option break apart your design an repairs all the little twists in the corners. Then you can hit params and it works perfectly without errors. An alternativ is: - Extensions - Ink/Stich - Troubleshoot - Failures on Objects (or similar, sry I´m translating from german) This alternativ is showing you all the problems in your design, so you can fix them. Hope this helps some of you. Cheers.
Thank you so much for this video on Inkscape & Ink/Stitch. It has been very helpful for a beginner like me. Love all your other embroidery videos too. Would love how you to see you use a bigger hoop than 5x7 for a large design with text. Thanks!
thank you guys... you're simply lovely! i've one issue I can't fix :( maybe you can help me!!! when I make a drawing with path + satin as border, even if the drawing is perfect on inkstitch and the simulator works fine... in reality i have some gap between the fill and the satin. this happends not everywhere. it's almost perfect, but in some parts there is a clear gap... Can you help me???
Do you cover how to do text in any of your tutorials? I found your first one very helpful to get started, but I am finding that even when I add text on inkscape I am not able to use the ink-stitch extension.
Hi, thanks for watching! We have two different videos covering information about text, one about Lettering GUI in Ink/Stitch (m.ruclips.net/video/ebV-T_ovGh0/видео.html)and another about the “Text and Font” tool within Inkscape (m.ruclips.net/video/Uj1P3Xbkx-s/видео.html). Hope this helps!
for text I'd think you need to type out the text, select it and then go path>object to path, this should convert it to a path so then inkstitch should work on it. BUT once you do that it's not text anymore so text operations (text on path etc.) won't work anymore so do those BEFORE you convert. also keep a note of the font you used in case you need to edit or change the text at any time (personalisation etc.)
Love your videos guys! I’m struggling with jumpstitches. I’ve just designed something with only the ink stitch lettering.. all are different fonts yet still all attached to each other with jumpstitches. How can I change this?
If your machine supports it, you can add "Trim" commands to each letter (Extensions>Inkstitch>Attach Commands to selected objects). If not, another easy way, is to change the color of each letter in the embroidery file. Hope this helps!
Thank You for this video very helpful! Do you know how to format a USB floppy disk emulator for a brother ult2002D. I have a mac and not sure what to do. Every time I put the USB stick in the brother I get an error....
Sorry, not really sure what you’re talking about. Our usb stick was plug and play for us, no formatting needed. You might want to try using a different usb stick
Hi! To export your design as a pdf you will want to go to File, Save As, Click the drop down menu with different types of file options, click “Portable Document Format (*.pdf)”. Additionally, if you’re wondering how to get a pdf of the simulator/realistic preview, you may want to just take a screenshot of it (Shift, Command, 4 on mac) and change it to a pdf in the images preview (go to file, export as pdf).
I have the next earlier version (windows 7) so am having to translate a bit. I imported a 3-color graphic in 3 layers prepared in photoshop, and then traced each layer and moved the bmps into separate, hidden layers... all good! But when it previewed the stitchout,, the first 2580 stitches were all over the place, seemingly unrelated to the image and very very spiderweb messy. And then, when it began actually to stitch the image it jumped all over, not doing things adjacent in order, even words were stitched one letter here, one letter there then back-and-forth to fill in the skipped letters... nearly as much thread in the jumps as in the stitching. Is there any rationale for such scattered stitching, or will I have to manually edit the code (or, do you have a video of exactly that issue resolved?)
This seems to always be an issue with the tracing feature no matter how you do it, we don't have a true fix for this or know why the software isn't smart enough to order stitchouts in a more deliberate way with less or smaller jump stitches. As a work around, when we encounter this issue, we use the "re-stack objects" feature to manually select the order of objects that stitch out. We did a quick video about how to use this feature here: ruclips.net/video/qfQXwfrNlks/видео.html
How do I get help with the trace function? I imported a logo, followed the Trace Bitmap step by step for colors and multi scan. I have the copy, but there are no nodes. How do I get the nodes to show up? I am able to size up and down each element of this very simple logo but cannot get the nodes to pop up so I can see what corners might be flipped in order to save as a vp3 and stitch out.
I’m not exactly sure what the issue is but just to clarify you pressed “apply” on the trace bitmap tool? Additionally, make sure you are on the ‘node’ tool and not the ‘selector’ tool (you can get to the node tool by pressing “N” on year keyboard). Hope this helps!
Thanks for the video it's great! i have some problems with making satin letters. The Ink stitch program doesn't go from left to right, it goes every where.. I have made my letter seperate in layers with the bezier tool . Please can you help. Greetings from Holland
Are you making your satin letters from scratch? Or are you using the "Lettering tool"? We cover the lettering tool here: ruclips.net/video/ebV-T_ovGh0/видео.html This tool will give you great results from the font selection. If you're making your letters from scratch (each rail and track), once each segment is combined, try using the "raise" and "lower" buttons (looks like a stack reorder button) within a layer to order your paths. Hope this helps!
My hoop size is 7x5. When I save my design it’ll only show up on my machine sometimes and I have to save it to my USB multiple times for it to work do u know why this is?
Can't say for sure why this is happening to you. I can only suggest you ensure you are not saving your embroidery file in any kind of subfolder within your usb device, save directly to the usb folder... Additionally, something we ran into a while ago, if you inadvertently export your embroidery file twice (with the same file name), when you export, the file will be saved as "filename.pes.1" That, ".1" at the end will cause your machine to not recognize the file. So suggest you check your file names for that as well. Hope this helps!
Thanks for your useful videos. I like the way you and your daughter complete each other. I hope one day I ll be able to do something similar with my daughter. 1 question: how can I set keyboard shortcuts for params ? thanks in advance and keep the great work))
Thank you so much for this comment! As to your question, it caused us to have to do some digging, as we didn't think much about our shortcuts and this will be a great video idea for us to do in the future. In order to customize your shortcuts, go to Preferences>Interface>Keyboard shortcuts. In the main field of your Inkscape keyboard shortcuts window, expand "Extensions," then scroll all the way near the bottom where you'll see "Params" and select it. Once the row is highlighted, select on the highlighted line again, but over the "shortcuts" column until you see "New Accelerator..." appear. Then simply type the shortcut that you would like to use to bring up params. You will see that command appear in the shortcut column, and you're done.
Hello there! No, in this video we cover custom satin stitches at the 14:56 mark, which will show you how to turn objects (other than strokes) into a satin stitch.
After I hit ok on the bitmap and close the bitmap out I don’t the image doesn’t get traced I’ve moved the image and there wasn’t a tracing any recommendations or trouble shooting
A few things to consider, make sure your image is selected prior to attempting trace bitmap. Second, make sure the layer eyeball is open, otherwise, if you are tracing to a hidden layer, your trace will be hidden as well. Hope this helps!
Juste mentionner quand tu veux retirer l’arrière plan donc le blanc Qd tu vectorize et tu vas ds couleur Tu coche, retirer l’arrière plan, c’est beaucoup plus simple que tout les étapes que tu as fais ☺️
Cant say for sure hat is happening, but it looks as though this could be due to outdated security updates on your operating system. Issue is posted on the ink/stitch issue page here: github.com/inkstitch/inkstitch/issues/1195 The suggestion is to install security updates.
Love these videos! I am trying your technique for satin stitches and keep running into this error message, any insight? rect1116-1-8: error: Satin column: Object has too few subpaths. A satin column should have at least two subpaths (the rails).
Thank you for the comment! We have seen this before and is usually a result of one of three things. Either your rails don’t completely cross over the tracks (so the program isn’t seeing at least two rails) the fix: check to make sure you have overlap. Two, the tracks and rails are similar in size (so the program doesn’t know which way you want to stitch), the fix: add another rail in the direction you want your machine to stitch. Three, we forgot to combine the lines (all of your track and rails should have the selection box around them when selecting one of the lines. Hope this helps!
Just to clarify, has the Troubleshoot "cleanup document" ever worked for you? Or are you having issues with a particular project that it's not correcting your design for embroidery? If it's never worked for you, try re-downloading/installing inkstitch. If the later, try adjusting the thresholds in the cleanup document popup window, or try running the Troubleshoot>troubleshoot objects command first to identify the objects causing your issues. Hope this helps!
@@ProjectAnonymous_Duo Thanks again! Its all working fine I saw just now your clip "Lettering GUI with inkscape". I am making a embroidery of a boy playing piano - a cartoonized . image- and after all done, I will write the name of the boy. So I hope it will works, I need lots of layers, for the background, for de clipart, it will be also broke in parts, and at the end I will creat a layer for the name .... hope every thing - all parameters I learned will work!! Have a GREAT YEAR of 2022 🍷🍷🍾
Already done! Thanks for all I learned from you two! Now the problem is that the usb is not recognized in my machine - janome 550E, I think because its to heavy, 64gb, and I need one with just 16 gb ... So just tomorrow I will embroider my FIRST stitch !!!!
Looks like really good tips unfortunately there are too many fast forward bits. I am totally new to this so when you fast forward I have not idea what you have done. Still very informative though.
You would have to import it and use Trace Bitmap. Then we have a few videos that might help you with creating your project. Here is a video on How to Create a Satin Stitch + Difference between Stroke & Satin in Inkscape/Ink/Stitch: ruclips.net/video/uFk_aE03wlk/видео.html Here is another video you might want to check out, which is our video on the latest Ink/Stitch version: ruclips.net/video/wc9AtYD4lZk/видео.html
We just did that for illustration purposes (to show what you can do)... Obviously, for quicker results, we would just use the color trace, but that does come with some nuances that we cover in future tutorials (such as the color layers becoming stacked). Hope this helps explain a little of our madness.
Hi, hahaha me to after looking the first video it’s been a week that I working on a image very complexe that I have to do embroidery patch for a customer. Ok I really need some help Do you have a video for some complex png When it’s transformed in svg, I’m French and will write to in French because I don’t find my word J’ai beaucoup d’étapes une par dessus l’autre Et quand je sépare les chemins, j’essaye de garder l’essentiel, mais cela fait qu’il me manque beaucoup de points. Quand je simplifie les points cela me fait la même chose. Je copie et je met de coter ensuite je prend ce que je veux faire en différence cela fonctionne, mais je me perd avec les étapes de ce que je dois faire en différence pour avoir un résultat finale. Pourriez vous faire un vidéo sur une image complexe svp Merci Sofie
If you click on the “A” (text and fonts tool) in the left hand tool bar, or press the letter “t” on your keyboard, you can add text to your design. Hope this helps!

Great video. Thank you! I've learned so much from you about Inkscape/ Inkstitch. I'm trying to figure out how to subtract one shape from another, so thread doesn't get laid down under an object (as in text over a shape). It isn't as intuitive as one might think it is. :)

Or maybe a better way to ask is, is there a way to add a thick edge to the whole image to make sure I can sew it after it's been made?
Hi guys, great video.
I´ve found a solution how you can avoid the "error: Fill: Shape is not valid. This can happen if the border crosses over itself.".
Highlight your design/object and go to:
- Extensions
- Ink/Stich
- Fill Tools
- Break Apart Fill Objects
This option break apart your design an repairs all the little twists in the corners.
Then you can hit params and it works perfectly without errors.
An alternativ is:
- Extensions
- Ink/Stich
- Troubleshoot
- Failures on Objects (or similar, sry I´m translating from german)
This alternativ is showing you all the problems in your design, so you can fix them.
Hope this helps some of you. Cheers.
Thank you so much! We can't wait to try this out, a time saver for sure!!
Thanks! That worked for me!
Worked for me thank you!!

So easy to follow! Can you show a text image please :)?! I've been trying for several hours and cannot figure it out.
Thank you for watching! We’ll be sure to add some text to the next video! Thank you for the suggestion!
for text I'd think you need to type out the text, select it and then go path>object to path, this should convert it to a path so then inkstitch should work on it. BUT once you do that it's not text anymore so text operations (text on path etc.) won't work anymore so do those BEFORE you convert. also keep a note of the font you used in case you need to edit or change the text at any time (personalisation etc.)
Love your videos guys! I’m struggling with jumpstitches. I’ve just designed something with only the ink stitch lettering.. all are different fonts yet still all attached to each other with jumpstitches. How can I change this?
If your machine supports it, you can add "Trim" commands to each letter (Extensions>Inkstitch>Attach Commands to selected objects). If not, another easy way, is to change the color of each letter in the embroidery file. Hope this helps!

How may I print the embroidered file to a pdf?, y want to print on a regular printer, not an embroidery machine
Hi! To export your design as a pdf you will want to go to File, Save As, Click the drop down menu with different types of file options, click “Portable Document Format (*.pdf)”. Additionally, if you’re wondering how to get a pdf of the simulator/realistic preview, you may want to just take a screenshot of it (Shift, Command, 4 on mac) and change it to a pdf in the images preview (go to file, export as pdf).

Either your rails don’t completely cross over the tracks (so the program isn’t seeing at least two rails) the fix: check to make sure you have overlap. Two, the tracks and rails are similar in size (so the program doesn’t know which way you want to stitch), the fix: add another rail in the direction you want your machine to stitch. Three, we forgot to combine the lines (all of your track and rails should have the selection box around them when selecting one of the lines.
Hope this helps!
Do I have to trace bitmap if I import svg image
No. If you import an SVG, it should be ready for Inkstitch. Hope this helps!
Hello I have Inkscape 1.1, and the Troubleshoot, "cleanup document" doesn't work!! Can you please help me?! Thanks
Just to clarify, has the Troubleshoot "cleanup document" ever worked for you? Or are you having issues with a particular project that it's not correcting your design for embroidery? If it's never worked for you, try re-downloading/installing inkstitch. If the later, try adjusting the thresholds in the cleanup document popup window, or try running the Troubleshoot>troubleshoot objects command first to identify the objects causing your issues. Hope this helps!
Does Ink/stitch give you a fault in a fault window? If so, what does it say?
@@ProjectAnonymous_Duo Thanks again! Its all working fine I saw just now your clip "Lettering GUI with inkscape". I am making a embroidery of a boy playing piano - a cartoonized . image- and after all done, I will write the name of the boy. So I hope it will works, I need lots of layers, for the background, for de clipart, it will be also broke in parts, and at the end I will creat a layer for the name .... hope every thing - all parameters I learned will work!! Have a GREAT YEAR of 2022 🍷🍷🍾
Already done! Thanks for all I learned from you two! Now the problem is that the usb is not recognized in my machine - janome 550E, I think because its to heavy, 64gb, and I need one with just 16 gb ... So just tomorrow I will embroider my FIRST stitch !!!!
Looks like really good tips unfortunately there are too many fast forward bits. I am totally new to this so when you fast forward I have not idea what you have done. Still very informative though.
Thank you for the feedback! We’ll try to slow it down a bit next time.
I just pause and look closely at the movement of the cursor.
How to export the .emb file?
how can i convert an image i found online to a satin stitch?
You would have to import it and use Trace Bitmap. Then we have a few videos that might help you with creating your project. Here is a video on How to Create a Satin Stitch + Difference between Stroke & Satin in Inkscape/Ink/Stitch: ruclips.net/video/uFk_aE03wlk/видео.html
Here is another video you might want to check out, which is our video on the latest Ink/Stitch version: ruclips.net/video/wc9AtYD4lZk/видео.html
How can you design puff embroidery ??
We’re looking into this... perhaps a future video! Thanks for watching!
How do you delete the outline
Thanks for watching! To delete the stroke (the outline) you can hold down shift and press the x on the left side of the color pallet. Hope this helps!
I don't understand why you do the second path in color if you're just going to fill in the color manually on the original path with no color.
We just did that for illustration purposes (to show what you can do)... Obviously, for quicker results, we would just use the color trace, but that does come with some nuances that we cover in future tutorials (such as the color layers becoming stacked). Hope this helps explain a little of our madness.
@@ProjectAnonymous_Duo Thanks for clarifying. Was trying to figure out if I needed to do both.
Can you do letter logo please
Thank you for the idea! We'll try and work it in soon. Thanks for watching!
Hi, hahaha me to after looking the first video it’s been a week that I working on a image very complexe that I have to do embroidery patch for a customer.
Ok I really need some help
Do you have a video for some complex png
When it’s transformed in svg, I’m French and will write to in French because I don’t find my word
J’ai beaucoup d’étapes une par dessus l’autre
Et quand je sépare les chemins, j’essaye de garder l’essentiel, mais cela fait qu’il me manque beaucoup de points.
Quand je simplifie les points cela me fait la même chose.
Je copie et je met de coter ensuite je prend ce que je veux faire en différence cela fonctionne, mais je me perd avec les étapes de ce que je dois faire en différence pour avoir un résultat finale.
Pourriez vous faire un vidéo sur une image complexe svp
Merci Sofie

How do you type?
If you click on the “A” (text and fonts tool) in the left hand tool bar, or press the letter “t” on your keyboard, you can add text to your design. Hope this helps!
What is a "satin stitch"? You just talk like everybody knows what that is.
