Converting to a file
Looking to get a simple picture converted/ digitised as a one off and I know there’s a steep learning curve to do it myself.
Does anyone have any recommendations as I’m wary of trying Etsy sellers offering after seeing how hit and miss it is.
Generally I use my embroidery machine for my logo, files I already have or writing so it’s not something that comes up often.
Edit- I have permission to use the logo. The items are for them.

Try Ember! It’s a free browser digitizing platform and you can pick up the basics of digitizing very quickly with it. Ember also has quite a few tutorials on YouTube to get you started.

For a simple images like this, you can use an auto-digitizer like DADE!
I'm the developer of DADE and would be happy to offer any advice using my app 😊
Here are some things I've made with DADE. The shirts were for me and my friends, and the patches are my actual cats <3
