Something for those who want to digitise and do it well. "Anatomy of a Design" by Amy Webster. ...... more below

I have known Amy online for nearly two years (through the Elna Exers Group) and her advice is what set me on the right path, right from the beginning. She is so knowledgable and explains thing so well and this free article is just the most brilliant advice for both beginner and experienced digitisers, alike. As digitisers, we never stop learning and improving so when I just found this site of Amy's I was compelled to share it with you all.

http://ww w.aldawldup.com/

On her site she has information on Pfaff Creative Designer, Embird and Xpressive, (Xpressive is the software used by Elna Xquisite machines)

I do hope some of you find this post helpful.

Hugs n roses, Meganne

    I refuse to read it...I know IF I do then I would likely be bitten by the "DIGITISING BUG"!!! I don't think my patience could stand it!!! But GOOD luck to all of you that do enjoy digitising:)

    Hey Reggie, My Dad's name was Reg but he didn't have my ability to read minds. LOL!!!
    Welcome to Cute, if I haven't welcomed you before. Please excuse my S.O.H. you'll get used to my offbeat humour when you get to know me. :-)

    Yes, I'm still awake, been in bed all day with a temperature and feeling lousy. I have an infection in the porta cath surgical wound. When they went to take the stitches out it had not knitted together after 13 days. (I'm coming apart at the seams!!! LOL!!)
    Anyway I'm back on anti-biotics and praying all these health problems will hurry up and leave. :-)

    As for the Digitising article, I have the greatest admiration for Amy so I know you won't be disappointed.
    She really helped me so much.
    Hugs n love, me

    Meganne,
    I will be praying in earnest, I wish you'd have let me know sooner Girl!!!! Please keep me informed. love, judy

    Meganne, I hope you get better soon. I also went to a doctor today, made some blood tests. I'll have the result next week. But it is all about my depression, it is affecting my health.
    You are always in my thoughts and prayers.
    Love,Yoriko

    meganne by meganne 04 Sep 2009     

    I am sorry to hear you are still having problems Yoriko but it's understandable with your Son & family all being back in Japan. That's enough to make anyone depressed and there's no tablet that can fix that longing.
    My thoughts are with you, always.
    Hugs n more hugs, Meganne

    Hi Gerry, I theink The Anatomy of a Design applies to all digitising, regardless of the program you use, as it is a basic standard.

    I'll keep my eyes open for tuts for PE Design as I also have that program, (though I don't use it)

    I receive Emails from Bernina and Husqvarner/Viking but none from Brother but I'm sure there must be help out there as there are so many help groups around the days.
    Have you tried searching the Yahoo Groups or even just Google Brother tutorials.
    I may even try this later myself, if I remember. LOL!!!
    Hygs n roses, Meg

    Gee DEB, has my memory got that bad?

    I only just discovered Amy's website tonight, and I know I didn't have this particular article, but I do remember she did write me a message about this subject in Jan 08. Maybe it was that message I passed on???? Or I'm going batty!!! LOL!!
    HNR, M
