Is your design puckered? Puckering is great for kissing, but not for embroidery designs. If your embroidery is puckering or causing your needle to break, it's probably the density of your design. DensityWorks software from Designer's Gallery automatically adjusts the amount of stitches in each design for perfect embroidery every time.
Design Density Perfect for Your Project
- Recommends best stabilizer, hoop, needle type and size, and thread weight based on the design and fabric
- Removes hidden stitches from within a design.
- Designs sew thinner and cleaner
- Less thread (and needle) breakage
- Control every aspect of a design by making fine or sweeping changes
- Adjust satin stitches, small fill stitches and fill density, either separately or all at once
Adjust the Density for Precise Stitching
- Reduce the density in designs that were shrunk to fit a hoop.
- Increase the density of designs for better coverage
- De-Clumps design areas oversewn repeatedly with the same color
- Filters small stitches that would otherwise create thread build-ups and jam the machine
- Limits the density of designs based on selected fabric and thread
- Save Time and Money With Proper Density
- View the density of designs to see how they'll sew - eliminate your test sew
- Reduced stitch counts save enormous amounts of time and thread usage
- Proper density adjustments allow projects to complete successfully
- With DensityWorks, project time and thread savings of 15%-30% are common!
View Your Design in Several Ways
- Choose from 3-D, Jump, or Wireline views
- Use the Density Map to see dense areas of designs
- Easily switch between original and adjusted views
