Feature

Overview

Photo Flash

Reef PhotoStitch

Create embroidery from photographs and other bitmap images. The effect is reminiscent of a coral reef, hence the name.

Color PhotoStitch

Create embroidery from photographs and other bitmap images. This technique produces variegated stitching using multiple thread colors.

Results depend greatly on the resolution, color depth, and quality of source images. For best results, use crisp images with well-defined subjects and strong contrasts.

In addition a degree of preparation is needed. This may involve preparation using third-party graphics applications such CorelDRAW Graphics. Tools are also available within Wilcom Workspace.
