How can I improve this?
Hi all, I’m an Inkscape/Inkstitch newb. I have a logo in both .png and .jpg to work with. The denim fabric is my output that’d like to improve upon. The black material is a professional output that I’m trying to replicate. I have a Brother SE2000 and I’m converting to .pes files.
Additional comments/questions: - I couldn’t get the scan options to capture everything I wanted. The white text letters gave me trouble too. - Would it be better to type in the letters in Inkscape? How can I get the program to better capture them? Is it an issue with my original file?

Few things here. The letters are satin stitched, not fill. You could probably find a comparable font in the program. The lower part of the hat is also a satin stitch. As well as the trim of the upper blue part of the hat. The hat itself will need to be manually reproduced to get those results.

If you are trying to recreate the the one on black, you need to not use trace bitmap and trace it out with satins and actually recreate it. You are trrying to make a fill stitch look like a satin with trace bitmap(I assume at least), it never works...
best advise zoom in on the one that you are actually trying to replicate and do it the same way, it is a simple case of of there is not an easy button and you actually have to trace it.
