Turns out there is a channel with some infos, just leaving it here in case someone else reads this as well

Ink/Stitch Channel with ca. 7k subscribers https://invidious.protokolla.fi/channel/UCJCDCFuT_xQoI55e10HRiRw

hmm that’s an idea, we could try an inkstitch thread here first maybe? lemmy isn’t that big, so splintering it too much too early might not be ideal.

I actually have embroideryware (windows, seems unmaintained now, horrible GUI but pricewise doable), that and brother canvas workspace for my cm900 are the only two things I run wine/Bottles for still.

I’m hoping to get rid of both with Inkscape (ink/stitch and inkcut, haven’t looked too much at the latter yet, I’ll try stitch first).

Do you happen to know of any tutorials for absolute inkscape noobs?

Just starting my journey with it. We’ll see how it goes :-)

thanks, I will check this out.

edit: okay that tutorial in the open issue helped a bit. I did already have the inkstitch-3.0.1-linux.sh but entering the flatpak cmd and have the script already copied to the extensions folder worked. Thanks a bunch!

thanks I will check this out.

edit:just extracting the tar.xz to the extensions folder and restarting inkscape-flatpak didn´t work. It was the correct folder, I tested it by installing another extension via the inkscape extensions dialog, and that popped up right there. However using the installer script from within the flatpak-cmd worked. Thanks for your help though!
