Step 4: Learn the Digitizing Theory by John

After the intro, move on to Digitizing Theory.

Here, you’ll learn the “why” behind digitizing—how things work and how to make designs stitch out properly.

These lessons help you understand how to solve problems, create better designs, and feel more in control of your results. Most users come back to this section again and again—so feel free to revisit it whenever you need to.

Practice is how you get better. These lessons are designed to get you creating right away, even if you’re brand new.
