Please keep making your videos -- this one was so helpful. You are superb instructor. I purchased my machine in August and because my husband has underlying health issues, this will be my way to get instruction without going to class and putting him at risk. If I get sick, so will he. Actually, you are better than class because I feel like you were actually here with me with a one-on-one instruction. Thanks again!

Thank you for this tutorial. I bought my Solaris about 8 months ago but the only thing I learned to do with IQ Designer was the knock-down stitch. I learned it by seeing another tutorial. The IQ Designer looked at me like the Big Bad Wolf beyond that. Now I am needing to learn how to quilt on my machine, I will be checking out your tutorials to see if you have a good one to learn to do this. I must echo the previous comments. The other videos I have seen leave me totally at a loss. You indeed are an awesome teacher, going nice and easy, explaining every step, and making sense! Again, thank you for removing some stress from my life.

If I want to edit an existing design that I have I am having a brain loss of how to do this. I thought I would be able to retrieve it from my USB stick directly into IQ Designer, but when I try this it does not "see" the design on my stick. I hope you don't mind me asking this probably silly question, but I definitely need some guidance on how to do this. I worked right along with you on this tutorial to create the flower but obviously I am a newbie.

This is one of the best tutorials every I agree your teaching skills are impeccably outstanding just flawlessly. I just purchased a trade in destiny that was upgraded and learning the machine. Can is the Solaris instructions can be use on the Unity? Thanks you are great I just subscribed to your video. And what is the best thread to use. I did purchase some Isacord and florinia embroidery thread which threads are the best. I did purchase some classes online had I saw your channel I think you would have been the help I needed . Thanks you

Teresa, The Unity does not have the IQ capabilities the Destiny and the Solaris does. So these features will not apply to the Unity. I like to use Maderia and Exquisite Embroidery threads. Those or my favs. :)

@@Pradatoo2 I have all Babylocks so I am definitely partial to my Babylocks. Also I am a Babylock educator. You need to get with your retailer and weight out your options.

I'm sure you will make the best decision that fits you! :)

Teresa, you should be able to use the wired mouse with your Destiny II. Make sure to plug it into the usb port on your Destiny II that has an image of a wired mouse. It is the lower usb port. Now with that said I can't predict if you may or may not have an issue with certain wired mouses. But I hope you will not! :)

Hi Lori. I plugged my new wired mouse into the usb (mouse) port but the mouse pointer doesn't show up anywhere. It has Bluetrack technology. Does that not work? Is there something that I need to do to get it to recognize the mouse? Looking forward to your classes. I have a Solaris with the upgrade. Thanks
@lorihernandez97623 жыл бұрын
Hi Deb, I'm not familiar with Bluetrack Technology. The mouse should be plugged into the usb port that has an image of a mouse beside the port. There is nothing else you need to do. Are you using a mouse pad? If it doesn't work you may have to try a different one. :(

Hi! I’m following along with this tutorial (you’re so good!) and I’ve come across a problem on my end. Where you get to 17:25ish area, you are talking about changing the fill area to a satin stitch and you change the colour to green. When I look at my screen, the satin stitch looks like polka dots, not the zig zag. Is this ok? Thank you!
