Ink/Stitch
I use inkstich to convert my images to embroidery files and will many designs instead of doing it all in on go it’ll start at the bottom get most of the way up them skip to the top and go down till it meets in the “middle”. Any ideas on how to fix this. I’ve been at it for hours and nothing

Hmm, have you tried searching or posting in the InkStitch GitHub issues section? I found it very helpful when I had a problem that stumped me.

If you are trying to make your own, from a picture or something there are some commercial options or you can use Inkspace with the plug-in called https://inkstitch.org/. If you do Cricut, then the same line drawing transformation ideas apply to make your own patterns.

You can sign-up for MySewnet and get the software for free (but it only lets you view the patterns). ONE nice thing about that software, when you install it, it will add a preview function to Windows Explorer so that you can look at the pattern without even open the pattern in the software. (Looks like this: https://github.com/D-Jeffrey/Embroidery-File-Organize/raw/main/docs/images/2022-12-27_10-56-25.gif) You can find a link to it at step 8 of these instructions: https://github.com/D-Jeffrey/Embroidery-File-Organize/blob/main/docs/How-to-Install.md
