FOR
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Creative DRAWings®
is a New, Easy-to-Use Embroidery
Software for the Home Hobbyist
and Start-Up Embroidery Businesses
CHICAGO, IL: Brewer Sewing
Supplies is proud to announce
the launch of Creative DRAWings®
-- exciting new machine embroidery
software that assists embroidery
hobbyists and start-up embroidery
businesses in creating beautiful
stitch files from artwork with
a few clicks of the mouse.
Creative
DRAWings® fits the needs of
machine embroiderers who are
frustrated creating original
embroidery designs in other
software. Creative DRAWings®
does not replace high-end embroidery
software, rather it is complimentary
by helping embroiderers create
original embroidery designs
and then they can use the newly
created design from Creative
DRAWings® within their high-end
software as they are accustom.
Most embroiderers, whether
they are hobbyists or small
businesses, want to create
original embroidery designs
especially logos with lettering.
With just a few minutes of
hands-on software instruction
with you, their local authorized
dealer, machine embroiderers
can import clipart, add lettering,
and then position, resize and
change the colors to their
personal preference. Creative
DRAWings® automatically generates
the stitches that form the
professional-quality embroidery
design and makes it ready to
embroider.
The secret behind the professional-quality
stitches is the revolutionary
DRAWstitch® technology. This
built-in feature converts almost
any clipart or photo into embroidery
stitches. What’s more, Creative
DRAWings® has a graphics interface
with artist tools, such as
Freehand, Bezier, Outline and
Shapes, to trace hand drawn
artwork or create artwork on-screen
for the ultimate in creative
freedom. The DRAWstitch® technology
automatically recognizes the
art and turns it into an original
embroidery design ready to
embroider.
Christine
Spencer, Independent Educator
for Country Stitches in Michigan
says, “Creative DRAWings® […]
automatically takes care of
a lot of the technical stuff
that the home embroiderer struggles
with. These things include
the very detailed and intricate
use and placement of the tie
offs, jump stitches, color
changes […] What’s more, it
also makes adjustments in fill,
underlay, overlap of areas,
density of design, for different
types of fabric, etc. It is
very smart about how it fills
shapes and lines with satin,
fill and running stitches.
It even tells me what stabilizers
to use when I embroider the
design. This program has a
lot of intelligence that far
surpasses any other embroidery
software programs that I have
seen.”
