    Thank you! I have a quilt top with 3 different sizes and shapes of birds... Is there a way to save these after I have drawn around them? There are about 10 to 15 birds in the small shape, about 10 in medium shape and about 6 or 7 in large shape of bird.

    • @sewingwithmel
      @sewingwithmel 6 месяцев назад

      Yes, you would save them while you are in My Design Center, before you turn them into embroidery designs, in case you need to go back and edit them, That file is your working file. Once you save them to the embroidery format, you would simply save tm to your machine, or a usb. :)

    What type of viewer do I need to open the download please because my pc goes to media player & will not open the file! Do I need to view the file before transferring to my USB stick & is it worth buying the brother design software (I currently use Artspira & found many designs won’t open without updating my machine) Also which software is easiest to design with for my machine? - Brother Innovis M340ED

    • @sewingwithmel
      @sewingwithmel 8 месяцев назад

      Do you mean the update file? You don't open it, it simply goes on the usb, and into your machine. As for the software, digitizing has a very steep learning curve, I would look for one that has a free trial, so you can see what it entails.

    • @sewingwithmel
      @sewingwithmel Год назад

      My plan to use my Muv It foot, and sew two lines along each sides of each strip of blocks, to create a plaid type look. If I do that, it will leave just some short stitching along the little sides of the parts that are above and below the blocks, if that makes sense. That's a lot of stop and start tho, so we shall see. :)

    The WONDERFUL tutorial!!! I just traded my Brother Dream 2 for a Luminaire XP3. I love how you comment with the do’s and don’t’s and not just the exact steps to do ! It is soooooo helpful to see how to correct the step you may not do correctly as much as how to do the steps. Do you think the stylus for my IPad (Apple pencil 2) might work with my Luminiare XP 3 ?

    Hi 😊 Did your pattern include a 10% negative ease. I'm just wondering if that is something new that they've introduced recently? I can't understand how my dress form will end up measuring correctly when the bust is about 10cm too small. It makes me nervous to sew the back together, because I may just have to unpick it all again. I used calico fabric and iron on interfacing and I don't think it will be stretching 10cms. Thanks 💐
