Art and Stitch PLUS Ed
|
PLUS Ed is a three week class class. Lessons will be posted to the closed website classroom each week on designated Fridays. Three LIVE virtual meetings will be held to show your projects and ask questions. This class is larger and more intense than any of my other classes. It covers embroidery design and theory and encompasses my 20+ years of embroidery digitizing experience. **Depending on the number of participants and availability, I may schedule a morning and evening session or a different day. Classes will be recorded. Watch 24/7. And available even after the last class. Refer back any time to your purchased classes. |
Expectations:
- You must own a licensed and registered copy of Art and Stitch Base or PLUS. Files cannot be saved and transferred to an embroidery machine on a Trial Copy. You will also not be able to use the latest features of Art and Stitch PLUS.
- Please assure that you have the latest update Version 7. Check the Art and Stitch website for instructions. https://artandstitch.com/register.htm
- Art and Stitch (Base and Plus) FULL version is available for purchase on my website. Purchase Art and Stitch (FULL version 7) from my website here
- You will need to have a basic understanding of machine embroidery operations and Art and Stitch basic commands. Because embroidery machines vary, we will not cover hooping techniques or specific machine operations, functionality, or features.
- You will also need a good understanding of computers, computer basic operations, and how to save, organize and retrieve files.
- The ability to access and understand how to use ZOOM meetings. If you need special accessibility (i.e., Closed Captioning, etc.), please contact me.
Cost of the class is $200 for the 3 week course.

I am enjoying the class very much. I knew a bit about digitizing, and now your class is filling in a lot of the blanks. You are showing shortcuts that I didn't know existed, and your knowledge of the program is wonderful! Thank you so much for offering it online. I hope this trend or idea keeps on even after Covid, because it makes it available to so many more people.
