Digitize using the PSW 2.0

At Jenny's Sewing Studio  PSW 2.0 monthly club we practice the art of digitizing with the PSW 2.0. Some of the designs we work on are quite nice. I will share the "Red Hat" lesson with you. If you would like a free download of the red hat image to digitize click here

The image is our first step. 

 

 

The first thing we looked at was the order to digitize the colors in. Usually this is done from the background to the foreground. We choose the hat inside brim as the first section and we decided a textured fill was best for such a large area. We did the hat body in a different textured fill to show a nice contrast. Note the face was done with a complex fill in step satin and the lips were done in a branches fill with satin stitch.

Continuing through the design, we used a branches fill and changed the density to do the cheeks and we used a step satin branches fill to do the hair.

when we got to the eyes we used a complex fill step stain and then outlined the eye and the lashes with a step 3 outline.

We added the outline in a step 3 line stitch. We also added a satin hat band in purple.

The final step was to add the purple lace dress. This was done with a special motif fill in the complex fill stitch type. We then placed a satin outline around the dress for definition.

As we worked on the design we constantly edited our work  and changed stitch types if they did not work out. Looking at the design in a realistic view really helps to see the finished product.

I hope this demo gives you a little idea of how the PSW works. We sell instructional CD's on the program to help you with your digitizing skills. Click on this link if you are interested in purchasing one of our many CD's.

If you would like to purchase the Singer PSW 2.0 or any of Singer's other software programs, we offer the instructional CD's free with the purchase.
