So it will take about 40 minutes to stitch out, not counting the time it takes me to rethread the machine between colors. Wilcom thinks it will look very nice! There are a little over 14,000 stitches. I tweaked the fill angles a bit and reordered some of the objects for easier to cut jump stitches, but otherwise left it as-is.
I ran it through the auto-digitizer, setting a blue fill for the body and white fill for the eyeballs. I used this adorable octopus, which Chris designed for hand embroidery on a dress I made a few years ago. So I’m playing around with it and today I gave the auto-digitizer a spin.
It’s a full featured digitizer with a (theoretically) easier to use interface. The prohibitive cost of the software ($1000+) means I probably won’t be doing so any time soon, but Wilcom has a new package called Hatch which I downloaded a 30 day trial of. I definitely want to learn to digitize my own files for embroidery.
