Digitizing video tutorial and FREE Design

When time is running out, you need a quick project. I made this clock using the snowflake design that came with Hatch Embroidery, added lettering (numbers) and digitized a hole in the middle of the snowflake. I bought the quartz clock movement and the hands online.

You can use the free design that you can access by clicking the button at the bottom of this article to create the same clock or you can experiment with digitizing your own with Hatch Embroidery Digitizer.
