STEAM Coding - TurtleStitch

This week, I worked on studying variables after coming across a thought, "I thought variables were supposed to make codes simpler." In one code, I made a variable, with little knowledge on how to customize it. After looking into the Snap manual and working on the Snap website, I learned that variables/blocks actually do make codes simpler. I explored the "make a block" function and my code was so much simpler than I anticipated! make a block function circle in a square code

Hey all, Check out my ScratchCard tutorial! Here is the link: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1a6DVLY5wdoxYd6uvAgvIIZllny0oFCnz50ATxLBZyzw/edit This week I am going to explore this embroidery code . I will start understanding the use of "variables" and try to make my own.

Here is my step-by-step guide on how to print your codes on the digital fabricator: After you finish coding, save your code onto the gallery Go to "file" Click on "upload stitch file" Title your work and press "OK" Go to the gallery and click on the image of your code http://www.turtlestitch.org/gallery/all Under "Download as embroidery file," click on the file with "Tajima/DST - experimental!" and download it If you would like to print out a 2-D image of it, under "Download as image file," click on the file with ".png" and print it Insert your USB flash drive and drag your downloaded .dst file into a folder designated to embroidery codes Eject your USB flash drive and connect it to the digital fabricator Set up the fabricator (a new blog post for that will be up this week!) On the fabricator, tap on the USB symbol on the screen Tap on your folder name and then tap on your .dst file Tap on the ...

Happy New Year to all! I am excited to share that my tutorials are finally put up on TurtleStitch! I am so proud of the work I have done last year, and it is amazing that my work is published online. Through the two tutorials, stitching a line and stitching a circle, I hope it will encourage more people to code and understand the basic concepts of TurtleStitch. When creating these, I thought to myself, how can I make people who are new to the program understand how the blocks work? , so I made comments next to each block. Here are the steps to get to the tutorials: 1) Go to  http://www.turtlestitch.org/turtlestitch/ 2) Go to Files 3) Click on "Open..." 4) Go to "Examples" 5) Click on a tutorial and "open" What tutorial should I make next?

This is the final tutorial I made for the introduction to TurtleStitch!

This is the second tutorial have been working on. It introduces the scripting area. I hope this guide will help you with TurtleStitch!
