Embroidery Machine Basics

Curious about the embroidery machine sitting on the shelf but not sure how to start using it? This class will demystify the embroidery machine and software, setting you up to design and execute your own custom embroidery!

You will learn the basics of designing in the embroidery software Hatch, which is a professional embroidery design software and available to all members; how to transfer a design from the computer to the embroidery machine; and how to stitch your design with the machine, including a discussion on stabilizers. Unfortunately, due to the software license restrictions, there will only be a demo of the software from the instructor, students will not be able to use the software live unless they bring their own windows-based laptop and sign up for the free 30 day trial. After the course the instructor will send out a list of resources for learning how to use the software on your own.

What you get to take home:  Knowledge of how to use the Embroidery machine and software.

Whom it’s for: Anyone aged 11+ (youth 11-16 must have a guardian present) with basic sewing machine knowledge. You need to be able to correctly thread a sewing machine without outside help. If you’ve taken Sewing Machine Basics at Seattle Makers then you are good to go!

What we’ll provide: Computers and software, embroidery machine, thread, and backing material.

What to bring: A can-do attitude!
