Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work. - Thomas Edison
Here you go..https://www.instructables.com/id/Embroidery-101/
I was fortunate enough to work at a place that did screen printing and embroidery. I graduated from printing toart/separations and then to embroidery supervising. I've been printing 50+ years, embroidering 25+ and digitizing10+ years and every day I still learn something and some days I feel like I've just scratched the surface. Mostlyself-taught but I have taken digitizing training seminars from Gunhold and Wilcom. and another Software companyI can't remember the name of. The key phrase here is "mostly self-taught".

Like google, youtube, forums like this. But there was no internet 50 years ago, let alone 30 years ago haha. Was it all trial and error for you?

I call it "paying your dues"....a lot of us didn't go to college, but we still need to pay tuition....
