Unfortunately, next week I'll be away for a coference (AGU Fall Meeting 2018). So I won't have too much time toexplore all the great opportunities of this week... However, I had sometime this weekend to try some...
...Embroidery!
This week I acually worked in two different spaces, trying two different work flows: CBA + Architecture. In booth spaces I use the PE Design software. (1) The version they have in CBA was a loittle bit more complex: you imported the lines (PNG), then select the type of stitch, filling, switch between two different programs, etc. (2) The architecture workflow was much simplier: you import the image (full color), and the program will automatically generate everything for you. Of course you can play with colors, filling types, etc.
For the assignment, I wanted to embroide something for my girlfriend. And what's better than her cat?
