The lessons

Work through them in order — each one builds on the last. Every lesson has the full video plus a written walkthrough you can skim or search.

1 Lesson 1

Upload Your First Design

Take a flat image and turn it into a stitch-ready file. You'll see how to upload, how the AI separates your design into color layers, and which images work best.

2 Lesson 2

Meet the Stitch Editor

Get comfortable inside the editor: the layout, the layers panel, and the three stitch types that are the foundation of every design — fill, satin, and running.

3 Lesson 3

Prep Shapes With the Toolbar

Go hands-on with the Split, Draw, Erase, and Fill tools. Learn how to slice wide or irregular shapes into clean satin columns and pick the right stitch for every layer.
