Creating Sketching For Embroidery

A person who creates a design is known as an emrboidery digitizer or puncher. Before computers were affordable, most embroidery was completed by punching designs on paper take that then ran through an embroidery machine. One error could ruin an entire design, forcing the creator to start over. In 1980, Wilcom introduced the first computer graphics embroidery design system to run on a minicomputer. Software vendors often advertise autopunching or auto-digitizing capabilities. However, if high quality embroidery is essential, then industry experts highly recommend either purchasing solid designs from reputable digitizers or obtaining training on solid digitization techniques.
