Michelle Gilmartin, Brother Educator, will share a 2 hour lecture demo presentation on the features in Brother PE-Design Plus/Next Photo Stitch programs!  

Michelle Gillmartin has owned her own businesses since the age of 19. Before working fulltime for Brother and while she owned a small business in an unrelated field, she started a successful sewing education and consulting business. As a result, Michelle has expertise in all areas of starting up, promoting and running small businesses. She currently works full time for Brother as a PR-650/PR-1000 specialist.

The presentation will begin with an introduction to the Flip Pal mobile scanner. This portable scanner (so small you can carry it in your purse!) not only allows you to scan family pictures in the photo album or on the wall but can help you keep a handy inventory of your fabric stash!

What kinds of pictures make good Photo Stitches? How do I select thread colors? How many flesh tones do I need? All of these topics will be addressed.

We will explore the features of Brother’s newest software member: PE-Design Plus.  Not a software person? Not to worry, PE-Design Plus was made with you in mind! It features Brother’s full Photo Stitch program! The same program found in our full fledged PE-Design Next program! It has 35 fonts and some handy features that will have you on your way to creating memories in stitches before you know it! Think of it as software with training wheels…..a nice basic program at fraction of the cost of PE-Design Next.

Already have PE-Design Next or are you considering full version software purchase? Learn about the editing options for Photo Stitch in PE-Design Next. Want to change the color of just a specific block of stitches in your Photo Stitch? Next has got you covered with that.
