Becky! I watched your video on creating the scan n cut files…and I took notes! I am so excited to now feel comfortable with this process. Thank you so much. I was able to do blocks C and D Applique pieces on the SNC!! Yay. Wow, I feel so accomplished. It took some time to work thru the first time, but I’m super excited to be able to do this going forward. Game changer! 😘 ❤

Hey Becky! Thank you for this great series! My advent calendar turned out great with your guidance. Your videos are so great that I rarely had to look at the instructions!! Of course DBJJ makes a great product with just the right amount of details! Thanks Becky and DBJJ!! (I need to purchase a rotary cutting mat. Which one do you prefer??)

As usual, another great project and instructions. Thank you so uch. What I want to know is where did you either get the pattern or panel/fabric for the dinosaur project behind your multi needle machine? My 2yo gr grandson's first words were "dino-dino" and he's in love with them so that would be a wonderful Christmas gift for him. So.... please point me to the panel/fabric please. Thank you so much for your time and talent. So greatly appreciated.

Becky ....Did you use SF101 for this as mine looks a bit different?

@susandriskill8058 Жыл бұрын

Did you use SF 101 on both pocket and lining fabric? Can’t wait for my machine to get back from spa days. Then will put her to work😂 Love your tutorials!

@debbiebrant359 Жыл бұрын

This tutorial is amazing! Convinced me to purchase the pattern and get started! I also need the trimmer tool! One question, did you “steam” or shrink the SF101 prior to adhering to your fabric to prevent shrinkage? When I steam after embroidery I have an issue with it puckering. Thanks for any advice!

@PowerToolsWithThread Жыл бұрын

I suspect that the shrinking came from your stabilizer. SF101 does not shrink. I have a link to the stabilizer I used in my Amazon store which is linked below the video.

@cathylachiver3909 6 ай бұрын

I think I missed something here .... Did you stabilize the background fabrics with sf101 before adding ? What is the stabilizer used in the hoop to start ?

@PowerToolsWithThread 6 ай бұрын

Yes, stabilize the background fabrics with SF101. No need to use it on the applique pieces. Hooped stabilizer is no-show mesh cutaway.

Becky, you mention and show cutting applique pieces on SNC. Will you address that or point me to where to find those applique pieces in the design file? Sorry, but I'm old and such a visual learner. Thanks so much.

@PowerToolsWithThread Жыл бұрын

I made those pieces using Embrilliance to create the SVG file from the placement line. I put a link to a video right above that spot to show how it’s done. If you click the link, it will take you to the video to show you.

Question… have you seen any advantage to using the flat table insert for the multi- needle ? Wondering if it helps to keep the hoop from bouncing? Inquiring minds you know 😉

@sandraryce1680 Жыл бұрын

I didn't have the table insert but was using the 8x12 monster hoop. That thing was dipping down in the front and I was told I needed some sort of extension to go under the hoop. I got the insert and that thing is wonderful! It's solid, easy to install and no more dipping, shaking and I love the extra space it provides. I can slide the hoop out, trim and then reinsert it without having to go to another flat surface to trim. Well worth it to me.

@PowerToolsWithThread Жыл бұрын

I have that Quilting table and I do use it when I’m doing into and Quilting from designs by juju. It helps to support the weight of the quilt to prevent drag on the hoop.

@sharonsienaski6919 Жыл бұрын

Does the design include the numbers? I think I read it’s an additional file to buy for the numbers? So I need software to combine the pocket design and the number? Great tutorial.

The pockets come with the numbers on them already

Pellon's SF101 as recommended in the pattern. It prevents puckering with dense fill stitches.

You don’t need any program. You can download the design to your computer and take it over to your embroidery machine by USB.

Which is more difficult project from JuJu? Tree skirt or Advent wreath?

@robinh Жыл бұрын

I would think the tree skirt is slightly harder due to triangle shapes and curved edges

@PowerToolsWithThread Жыл бұрын

I think the tree skirt is more challenging than the advent calendar. But that is just because of the finishing.

How do you sort the steps in embrilliance so that it will stitch east step at the same time?

@PowerToolsWithThread Жыл бұрын

That is called color sorting and it is found under the utility menu in Embrilliance. However, I do not recommend doing that because many pieces need to layer in the order that the Digitizer set to stitch.

@@PowerToolsWithThread right, I get that. But, can we sort so it will stitch step one for both at the same time then 2 at the same time then 3 etc
