AI image generators like Midjourney, DALL·E, and Stable Diffusion have made it possible to create original artwork from a text prompt in seconds. Once you've generated something you love, SewFlow turns it into a ready-to-stitch embroidery file — completely free.

The secret to great AI-art embroidery is generating with stitching in mind. Add terms to your prompt that nudge the AI toward clean, flat designs:
- •Try keywords like 'flat vector illustration', 'simple logo', 'bold outlines', 'limited colour palette', or 'sticker style'.
- •Add 'white background' to make background removal effortless.
- •Avoid photorealistic prompts — gradients and fine detail don't survive the trip to thread.
- •Generate at the highest resolution your tool offers for the sharpest input.
Sticker Style Wins
Prompting for a 'die-cut sticker' or 'flat mascot logo' reliably produces the kind of bold, flat artwork that embroiders cleanly. The more it looks like a sticker, the better it stitches.
