Introducing Embrilliance StitchArtist Level 2 - Create your own embroidery designs without breaking the bank!

Welcome to StitchArtist!

StitchArtist is a standalone digitizing software program to create machine embroidery designs from scratch. You start using existing artwork or by drawing with stitches. You control the shapes, set the stitch type and properties, and StitchArtist generates stitches for you. When you want to create stitches, thats what it does.

StitchArtist is a journey many years in the making, and has been designed for ease-of-use and digitizing education. The process of design creation, commonly called digitizing, requires a skilled person using a specialized tool. StitchArtist is that tool, but it is designed to take the difficulty out of the software, leaving the user to concentrate on their designs.

In a radical departure from the typical digitizing interface, StitchArtist uses a single mode to draw, set stitches, size, edit, rotate, sequence and set properties of design objects. It is easy and intuitive once you know the very basics, which are described in detail in the user guide.

StitchArtist is part of the Embrilliance Platform, therefore it shares one program with other titles, such as Essentials. This means that as you add titles, your features grow without having to switch between programs! StitchArtist is not dependent on another program; you do not need Essentials or Enthusiast, etc. The platform works with any embroidery machine capable of using a file off the computer; it can read and write at least one format that every embroidery machine understands: including all Brother/Baby Lock PES format, Janome JEF and SEW formats, Viking SHV and HUS formats Pfaff PCS and VIP formats, Bernina ART format, Commercial .DST, etc.

StitchArtist comes in levels which suit different skill levels:

Level 2 - Introductory price $379

Level 2 includes Level 1 and is designed for production and skills training for those who would like to create more sophisticated designs, as well as a more complete set of tools. It will allow the user to learn a wide cross-section of stitch types and properties, and have enough freedom to create virtually any design. You do not need to own level 1 in order to purchase Level 2. If you already own Level 1, and are looking to get Level 2, use the Contact Us button at embrilliance.com and ask about an upgrade at a lower price.
This is a full version at Level 2. You do not need to own level 1 first.

Easy to work with

Editing outlines is a frequent task when creating designs. StitchArtist is very helpful in this task:

1. Stitch generation is instant and automatic.
2. There are no mode changes for selection, editing, coloring, moving, sizing, rotating or adjusting properties.
3. You can work in any number of display options. No need for a specific one to be used during any process.
4. Users unfamiliar with Bezier can use a simulated spline system which is easier to teach, and can be helpful in the early instruction process.

How do you use StitchArtist?

Most users will begin by importing a background image some artwork that they want to embroider. Then you create objects, which are shapes that will be stitched, over the artwork. You decide the shapes, their order and their stitch properties. Those who are familiar with any modern drawing tool will feel comfortable with StitchArtist as it uses a Bezier model of shaping.

When assigning stitches to shapes, you have freedom to change your mind at any time; any shape can be made into any type of stitch as easily as clicking a button.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: What is it?
StitchArtist is a multi-level approach to machine embroidery design creation software. It has the easiest user interface that we have seen or could imagine. It makes the normally difficult process of design creation easier. It won't make you an expert overnight, but you'll be able to use it quickly and as you grow in your skills you'll be creating designs more easily than ever before. It is designed to go hand-in-hand with embroidery digitizing instruction, so that you can learn to create with lots of people offering inspiration and guidance.

It uses a normal Bezier interface for drawing, and a simple spline mode for those who are afraid of Bezier. It let's you draw, create stitches, sequence, set entry and exit points, edit, move, size, rotate, adjust properties all within one mode. No switching around or clumsy tool selection.

Q: Does it stand alone?
StitchArtist is part of the Embrilliance Platform, so it works together with other Embrilliance products in that platform.

Q: Do I need Essentials or Enthusiast?
It does not require Essentials, Enthusiast or any other Embrilliance title.

Q: Can I upgrade?
