I would like to ask all you cuties .....what makes a GOOD DIGITISER. Is it patience do you need to be artistic, can anybody do it. I can't digitise at the moment but I am curious to what you all think

In a well digitzed design the colors changes flow easily from one to another with few jump stitches.
Has texture from the way stitches are laid in different directions by the digitizer.
Has highlight colors to set off the design.
Having a design with minimal stitches so the design stitches out easily and is not bullet proof or too heavy for any fabric.
I am sure there is lots more to learn about digitizing a great design but this is what I notice makes up a good design as an embroiderer! LOL.

7969I digitize the way I know I want it to sew out as an embroiderer. I hate a million jumps, and I like the colors to flow in a good order. I take my time and if a design frustrates me or I get bored with it, I come back to it another time. If I am bored with a design, the quality will be poor.

And I rarely ever charge for any designs I digitise for other Cuties, so you don't have to make money to be a good digitiser.

This is a great article for digitzers to read and also for embroiderers so they have a better appreciation for what digitzers have to consider when digitzing a design.
Thanks Mops!
145304A good piece of artwork to work with, a lot of patience, a lot of tial and error and sometimes to be able to accept I can not do that (yet). Also people who are able to help you if you get stuck. Sometimes you are in luck and find good tutorials.
