Wilcom Hatch Embroidery Digitizer v2.1 introduces a range of powerful new features designed to enhance the embroidery experience. It includes multi-position hoop support, allowing designs to be split and stitched across larger areas without manual alignment. A new hoop and machine management system makes it easy to select or customize hoops for specific brands. The Design Library enables efficient organization, browsing, and searching of all your embroidery files. Eight manual digitizing tools provide creative control, while appliqué enhancements allow users to apply one of four cover stitches (or none) and export designs to SVG for cutting machines. The Laydown Stitch Tool flattens textured fabrics for clearer embroidery. The Keyboard Design Collection maps embroidery elements to keyboard keys for fast monogramming. Artistic tools like Reef PhotoStitch and PhotoFlash convert images into creative embroidery styles—either textured low-stitch reef designs or vintage-style line art. Finally, advanced editing tools such as weld, knife, break apart, color blending, remove overlaps, and branching allow for in-depth customization of every design element.
