Clearly illustrates how-to's and demystifies stitching issues,
By Ramona "Author of Dynamic Belly Dance" (Atlanta, Georgia USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Digitizing Made Easy Create Custom Embroidery Designs Like A Pro (Paperback)
I never thought I'd pick up a book about a subject like digitizing and find it fascinating---but this book exceeded my expectations. It is very clearly written and has helpful illustrations throughout. In addition to the how-to's, the author also covers the history of embroidery machines before the computer era, and how some of the knowledge from those early years helps with digitizing with a computer today. I just wish I'd bought this book from Amazon, because I paid list price for it at a sewing shop. I'd recommend this book to anyone interested in digitizing and computerized embroidery. It explains why designs sometimes don't stitch out as well as expected, how to digitize to avoid problems, and what to look for when shopping for digitizing software. The CD that comes with it is nice too.

digitizing made easy,

This review is from: Digitizing Made Easy Create Custom Embroidery Designs Like A Pro (Paperback)
I have had a digitizing program for many years for my home embroidery machine and never felt I had good information on how to digitize well. This book gave me the basics I need to feel confident to go back and make my own designs again. A must have book for new and seasoned home designers or beginners in the digitizing embroidery field as an introduction to the industry.

Only thing like it on the market!!,
By P. J. Martin - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Digitizing Made Easy Create Custom Embroidery Designs Like A Pro (Paperback)
I cannot recommend this book enough!! It is the only thing like it out on the market for the home embroiderer. It is not software specific. It picks up where the software manual leaves off. In this book John Deer talks about distortion, underlay, density, etc and shows lots of pictures that makes it really clear what he's talking about. You also get a cd with the book that has the designs that he uses as examples in the book. I asked the store where I teach embroidery software to stock this book & it's been flying off the shelves.Up until now I feel like the commercial embroiderers were trying to keep their tips a secret from the home embroiderers. I have to thank John Deer for sharing all of his great tips with all of his sitting at home trying to figure this out on our own!! 51 of 51 people found the following review helpful

All Machine Embroiderers Should Have This Book!,
By Bradonna K. Myers - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Digitizing Made Easy Create Custom Embroidery Designs Like A Pro (Paperback)
This is a truly fantastic book. Even if you don't want to learn how to actually digitize designs, you will benefit a great deal from learning how they are digitized, leading to better stitchouts and projects. The book is full of pictures that clearly demonstrate the easy-to-understand text. It takes what can be a very complicated process and breaks it down into simple steps that anyone can understand. I have an easier time choosing proper stabilizers and fabrics now that I understand the concepts this book presents. If you machine embroider, this definitely needs to be on your bookshelf!
