TurtleThread

TurtleThread is a tool inspired by TurtleStitch and powered by pyembroidery that lets you program an embroidery machine with a Turtle interface.

To learn how to use TurtleThread, we recommend looking at the introduction to TurtleThread, any of the other example scripts, or watch our talk at PyCon US 2023 (the sound can be weird on some devices).
