Description

Ever try to embroider by hand? Wish you could bypass all the hand cramps and let a machine do it for you? Great news! This class can get you on the path to finally owning those custom embroidered towels you've always wanted. Participants that already have a knowledge and understanding of vector design can create their design in the vector program of their choice (Protohaven uses InkScape). Participants that do not have prior experience with vector design will be using the Janome Digitizer software. During this class you will produce a custom embroidered design created on our CNC Embroiderer going up to 1,000 stitches per minute! No clearance or prior experience required, however comfort using Windows computers is needed.
