I've been faffing around for several hours trying to figure out how to do lineart. Let's say I want to trace an anime frame, but I need to figure out how to do the lineart without it devolving into a million jump stitches and /or crossing thick satin stitches over each other, I'm really stuck and would hugely appreciate some help.
Thanks so much!
Hey all! I'm working on my first practice digitalization piece using ink/stitch, and I've just run into some issues with jump stitches. I'd really appreciate some help.
I managed to sort out most of the issues I had before by reorganizing layers and breaking some down into further paths I can reorder, but the final black outline is giving me some grief. I started with a bitmap from an image, then edited the nodes to be tidier.
It just seems that it's doing many large and unnecessary jump stitches in the second half of the black section. I'm very much still learning, and have done my best to research, but none of the methods I've found and understood worked on the black when they did for the white / red.
When I tried to "break down" the main lineart path with CTRL + Shift + K in an attempt to reorder elements, it seemed to just break it. I'll attach images below of what happened to it.
I'd really appreciate any advice on how to fix this, ideally without taking too many shortcuts, as I'd love to build up the fundamental knowledge, painful as it may be. Thanks so much!
(p.s. I'm going to bed since I'm nodding off, and haven't looked at it properly, but if anyone can tell me why only the base layers of stitching are showing up on params, that would be lovely too lol.)
Edit: I've fixed the "Needle" layer to be under the skirt to hide that jump stitch.
Hi there! I hope you're all well. I'm about to get my first embroidery machine, and I'm just in the opening phases of learning ink/stitch.
I was wondering if anyone has a premade sample "sheet" / "grid" anywhere, which shows different stitches / settings within the software? Something similar to this (link), except not for errors, just for standard embroidery options? Here's another example in the context of dyeing. I would almost describe it as a grid with control variables and then the independent variables that change it. Hopefully this explains what I mean, but I'm happy to try to explain more if needed!
I'm slowly whittling through Project Anonymous's tutorials, but I'm really into sampling right now across the crafting board, and it would be really nice to have physical references of what I can do, and what variations there are on that.
Thanks so much for your help and / or your time, I really appreciate it! Have a lovely day.
