Intro to SewArt (Sewing Class) Learn embroidery in the Fab Lab

What is SewArt?

SewArt (SA) is an embroidery digitizer for converting raster image files (*.jpg/*.png, etc), vector images (*.svg, *.emf), and clipart into embroidery file formats. Image processing tools and a step-by-step wizard are provided to produce an image suitable for yielding a high-quality embroidery stitch-out. 

What will you do in this workshop?

You will learn how to open SewArt and learn step by step how to convert your images into SewArt files so you can embroider your images onto shirts, shorts, pillows, etc (the possibilities are endless). We will practice making the RedHawk (Lake Michigan College's mascot).
