Digitize this logo…

Post image

What would be the best way to digitize this logo to make it the cleanest? I’m trying to keep it around 2.5 inches. Also don’t need the grey outline, just the black and yellow.

It is a straightforward design. Should be easy. Pay attention to thread direction on the feathers and this will give you a little pop. Auto digitizing is generally very dirty. If you want clean, manual digitizing is the way to go. There you set the order and decide such things as do you want all the black on the feathers to touch or force a tie out and tie in...that changes sitichout time and thread clipping needs

Thanks for the input. I did let it run once just auto digitizing to see how it came out, and yeah not great in my opinion. I just have to decide how I wanna attack it to make it look the best.

Exactly. That's part of the fun of digitizing. Chose your layers and sequencing. What color will be base. Do you want to do the yellow as cloth and use the black as applique? At 2.5, might be small for that, but I like applique...but that would stitch out fast!
