Ink/Stitch
Topic illustrationWhy we picked it
A reference for reviewing the beginning and end of a stitch sequence.
Put it into practice
Choose a small test design and locate its starts and finishes in the simulator. Compare the relevant settings using the official guidance, then inspect the sample’s thread security.
Keep a useful record
Save an editable working copy and label your experiment with its intended size and material. Compare the preview with a sample before repeating the setup on a finished item. Note what changed and what remained constant so the next attempt answers a specific question. A screen preview helps with planning, while the sewn result shows how the material behaves.
