This month, in a bid to become more user-confident with the Hatch Embroidery digitizing software, I intend to take a dive into a range of tools, options and features that I have rarely touched on in previous posts, starting with redwork.
Missed Something?
Want to start at the beginning? If you have landed here from somewhere around the internet and have missed any of the previous posts in this series, you can find them all snuggled in this archive.
Look At What I Made!
For my first steps into redwork I decided to use one of the built in designs that comes bundled with the software just to get an idea of how redwork looks when stitch out on a machine.
This is what I created.

Nice! I do think that I need to work with a coloured bobbin thread in the future though as you can see the black bobbin thread peeking through.
Anyway, I liked the style and the look of this technique so will be doing my own design next week.
In the meantime, here’s a quick video of this week’s playtime. Enjoy!

All the best,
John.
