I am; a new newbie. How do I actually open "inkstitch"? I have attempted install/reinstall of both Inkscape and Inkstitch, for 2 weeks. (Ubuntu 21.10) I am able to find user extensions & the downloaded icon for the file but there is no "install Inkstitch extensions".

You are most likely using the snap version of inkscape, which is not compatible with extensions like inkstitch.

First, replace the snap version with apt.

sudo snap remove inkscape sudo apt install inkscape

For Ubuntu 20.04, you need to update to the latest version of Inkscape with the official Inkscape PPA.

sudo add-apt-repository ppa: sudo apt-get update sudo apt install inkscape sudo apt dist-upgrade

Then, install inkstitch

wget sudo apt install ./inkstitch_2.1.2_amd64.deb

Now Ink/Stitch shows up in Extensions -> Ink/Stitch

inkstitch
