It’s the software!” says Coloreel, the Swedish manufacturer of the instant thread- colouring unit. Coloreel Studio is its software program for the colourisation of embroidery designs – it is the link between the user’s digitisation software and the Coloreel unit. “You use the same DST- file that you load into your embroidery machine,” explains the company. “In Coloreel Studio you add all the colours and effects that you want for your final design. The program is made with simplicity in mind. The tools are carefully selected and simple to use. The program uses drag-and-drop for most of the functions. Most of the action happens in the timeline at the bottom of the screen where you can see the colour queue. The queue shows from left to right the embroidery’s start to finish.” Coloreel is continuously updating its Coloreel Studio software Coloreel Studio is under constant improvement, reports the company, with new functions and effects being added to help make users’ “lives easier”. www.coloreel.com Coloreel: Coloreel Studio ETC Supplies has launched two new stitch removers, the Mighty Stitch Remover and the Buddy Stitch Remover, having discontinued a previous line from a different manufacturer following customer feedback.
