How to Digitize Gradient Fills - Machine Embroidery

Ойын-сауық

If you’ve ever wondered how to blend colors with thread, this video is jam-packed with foundational theories to learn from.
We’ll use the gradient tools within our digitizing software to blend fill stitches together while still making the design machine friendly. More importantly, having the design run with minimal trims and jumps.
Blending colors is the first step; the second step is making sure the design is visually clean and crisp. Be sure to tune in to this video for tips that will make that happen and to see the results… the proof is always in the stitching.
Thanks for watching!

    Hello, thank you very much for a great tutorial. I would also like to learn how to make a satin stitch gradient. I saw this embroidery and I really liked it.

    Why don't I have this option? I have the "Hatch Embroidery Digitizer" and I turned my underlay off. Under "Effects", I only have Feather Edge, Radial / Curve Fill, and Elastic Embossed Fill.

    I have a project that contains a round shape that needs a gradient from the center out. Is there a way to do that? It is darker in the center to light outside. I was thinking I would have to shade it freehand, but welcome using a way to make it look better than my freehand shading will.

    Thank you so much for this video. I have a question. I am working with the letter G so the angles of the Tahimi stitch are varied so that they run perpendicular to the outline. In the video you say to change the angle from 15 degrees to zero. What should I do in the case of a curved letter? (The software established the many various angle, not I).

    @John Deer's Embroidery Legacy Very nice. Thank you. Gradients are something I'm working on but haven't quite mastered yet. A couple questions: Instead of redigitizing the gradient area why not use the knife tool a second time at the top of the area and duplicate the middle section? Also why run a run stitch between the two "legs" of the R? I would have run the Orange first. Then switched needles and run one leg, then the red gradient and then the other leg allowing the gradient to get me to the other leg.

    My base was a ESA Flexi-Fill font, I’ve found that on detailed shapes can create a mess when “broken apart” and it end up taking me longer to edit than to quickly digitize. The run between the two red bottoms it to keep all three objects stitching from bottom to top and not changing the stitch direction so they start opposing each other. Both would work with such a small design, I’ve become a creature of habit with keeping foundational rules as consistent as possible.
