Creation Steps

Discover the step-by-step process to transform your ideas into embroidered creations with TurtleStitch. From coding to making, following these simple steps to bring your designs to life.

Code

Use the graphical coding framework to select commands from the pallette on the left section connect them in the script area. You can always give it a try and exectute them by just clicking the blocks. Is the turtle moving?

Draw

The moving turtle in the stage area draws a line, which is equivalent of the thread's path on the embroidery machine. What's the size of the drawing? Does it fit your embroidery hoop?

Stitch

Frame the hoop, connect it to the machine, and get excited seeing your design come alive evolving into a touchable embroidery.

Make

What do you intend to make out of your design? Get inspired by our new platform, focusing on creations made by TurtleStitch users.
