Worth seeing other work by Licia He - the author of this repository:<p><a href="https://x.com/licia_he" rel="nofollow">https://x.com/licia_he</a><p>She uses plotters with watercolors and does other awesome experiments.
I looked up the plotter they recommend and it's in-production successor costs $700, which is more than some embroidery machines I'm seeing: <a href="https://store.bantamtools.com/products/bantam-tools-nextdraw-8511" rel="nofollow">https://store.bantamtools.com/products/bantam-tools-nextdraw...</a><p>Are there cheaper plotters out there that anyone can recommend?
... there's no lock stitch underneath the fabric? if you pull on 1 thread the whole thing comes apart?<p>I have a Husqvarana Designer Jade 35 Embroidery sewing machine, and the embroidery arm is just that: an x-y plotter/positioner that the computer can synchronize with the timing of the needle stitch.
