ScanNCut DX - Cutting Fabric Step by Step

- Опубликовано: 30 июл 2024
- In this video, I explain the difference between the Scan N Cut DX cutting machine and other electronic cutting machines and why I prefer the SNC. Then I provide a step-by-step tutorial to cut fabric for applique quilts with the DX.
I have the SNC DX225. The affiliate link below is for the SNC DX 125 at Amazon which does NOT support the 24" mat or the roller feature like the 225. If you want the SNC DX 225, please contact Allbrands at the link below.

I love how you explain new ideas and products! Thank you!
Thank you so much for this Becky; so many helpful tips for when I start using my ScanNcut to cut fabric. It was really good to see how you got rid of the excess lines.
BECKY Your the GO-TO for down to earth “how to” ……you earned a 10 on this one!!
Nice to see a tutorial for the DX. Even though I use mine for cutting card stock I learnt a lot from this video. I never thought about saving to my computer to clean up the mat. Awesome tip! This will save me so much time from now on. TFS :)
Becky, I've had my machine for about 4 days and this video is invaluable! I can finally work on my applique BOM quilt with ease. Thanks so much for your talent and knowledge.
"I drive fast barefoot" love that tee. I am new and learning about scan and cut. This is very helpful. Thanks for putting this video together.
So glad i've found this tutorial and your channel. I have't cut fabric yet on my SnC. Thank you.
I'm sold! Now I know why I should spend more and get this machine. Thanks so much for showing that process. I'll get that McKenna Ryan quilt done that's been sitting in my closet for 10 years!!
You make it look so easy. Just got a scanncut and am on the learning curve.
I'm not a quilter but these instructions are fantastic. Your visuals are great too. I just got my machine and I'm educating myself before I pull it out of the box. Thank you!
Great teaching as always! I have on the fence scout buying a cutting machine. You helped a lot!😊
Thank you Becky! Love your videos and helpful information, tips, and tricks! Bravo! Keep doing what you do for us and I wish you a blessed and Happy New Year!
Thank you thank you! I was trying to figure out how to fix my patterns after scanning them in when they had all those bits around them!! This will make my life much easier 😁
Thanks from a beginner. Smiles from Prescott Valley, AZ, USA.
I've been reluctant to use my Scan n Cut for too long. Thanks for the info, you make it so clear.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for mentioning the Scan to phone for Silhouette! I had totally forgotten about that function. I have 2 Silhouette machines but have gotten into embroidery in the last year. I am just starting looking in to making things with cut fabric and came looking for information but now I will dive further into my Silhouette functions (AND the Scanner/multifunction printer) that I forgot about BEFORE I go further into possibly getting a whole new machine. Especially since I have so many programs that also do these functions.. just a few steps and spending less money:)
Omg this so good, I learned so much. Now I need to go play with my dx. Thanks for all your videos 💗
Thanks for the first video I found that actually taught me something. I have a ScanNCut CM650W. It's out of the box on a table in my sewing room, but never used. It's been there for two or three years. I'm not sure when I bought it. I love to appliqué quilts and this will make it so much more fun and faster.
I really appreciate this video! I just bought the Scan n Cut DX on sale at my local fabric store (they had a demo a year ago), but I've been reluctant to try it without some instruction! You show it how it is and to just "go forth"! I do so appreciate it! Thank-you!
Yay! Mission accomplished! Please share any successes in our FB group!
love my scan n cut I have a cricut and never used since I got my scan n cut and now I have the scan n cut dx i used my scan n cut dx for all my applique patterns I mostly use my scan n cut for fabric and sew
Thank you so much for this video. I had my scan and cut for a year, and did not know how to use it.Can’t wait to use it now.
Great tutorial. I just got a Scan and Cut DX for Christmas (2021) and am trying to figure it out today. Thanks.
Thank you for all you down to earth videos. So much info each time.
Thanks for your sweet comment!
The best explained video on the Scan n Cut I have seen. I am tossing with the idea for the embroidery machine.
Thank you for such an easy to follow informative video. I was always scared as it looked so complicated and I am not tech savy. I quilt (beginner) and also a card maker.This looks like a great machine to have. In Australia they are so expensive so I wanted to be sure that I spent wisely. Thanks from Maleny Queensland Australia.
Unboxed my sdx85m about a month ago and have been spinning my wheels since...this exactly what I was looking for...thank you!
You are fantastic at explaining things! Thank you!
I want one now
I am a sewing. I always wanting to do appliqué but find it stressful cutting around small pieces. You have finally show me how easy the scan and cut can do, even with heating bond on it. Thank you so much.
You have the best instructional videos ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️. Thank you
Very informative video. I need to get my Scan N Cut back out.
I bought my scan and cut sdx225 in June just took it out of the box after Joy said take it out of the box. LOL . anyway I watched you last summer using it for applique. I'm in Love with it . Ive not done anything yet but watching all of the videos, I cannot believe everything this machine can do. Blows my mine.
Im brand new to your channel, I cannot wait to get my Brother scan n cut. Ordered it today from my brother sewing machine dealership. I will be using it for fabrics mostly. I will be following you for more information. Thank you
This is an excellent tutorial. Thank you so much. Cleaning up all the extra scan lines in the canvas workspace is brilliant. So helpful!
Enjoyed watching. Happy New Year!
Oh you are so lovely 😊 My husband just got me one today and I’m feeling the same giddy happiness working with it as you do 😆 It really does an amazing job! Great video
This is awsome like having my own personal teacher. Thank you
Thank you, thank you, thank you! I haven’t gotten mine out of the box yet, but this will help me. Your videos are GREAT!!
I'm so glad you found it helpful. Once you get the hang of the SNC, you'll begin to look at applique quilts in an entire new light. Happy New Year!
applique quilts are my favorite too, just ordered a scan & cut
I love my older ScanNcut 350. I do vinyl and applique. It is a little more noisey than the new DX but that is really not a problem for me and I've used various materials to cut and now I know the setting I need for each, but I always do a little test. Becky, you are doing such good informative videos. Thank you.
Thank you ma'am! I'm with you on the noise reduction - not a big deal. But these machines are wonderful!
I use painters' tape and tape the mat to the table before trying to apply anything to the cutting mat. It keeps it from moving around. Love your videos. I am learning a lot from them. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks, Becky, Finally getting around to using my Scan n cut, and this helped me quite a bit. Thank you
I love all of your video's .... you explain everything perfectly!
Woo hoo! I know I’m a couple of years behind you guys, but I just got a Scan N Cut DX230. I’m so happy I’ll be cutting out appliqués on this machine, and little pattern pieces like collars and facings, too! Thanks for this fabulous video, Becky! 💗
Fast forward! Try the Teal low tack mat with fabric side up and HNB side down. :) It works perfectly! No mirroring required!
@@PowerToolsWithThread I just watched that video again. I’m pretty confused now, so I’m headed to bed; will try tomorrow with a clear head! Thanks, Becky!
Thank you so much for this video. Over 10 years ago I was in a quilt shop and saw a beautiful Noah's Ark quilt on the wall. My friends and the owner of the shop convinced me that I could make the quilt. No problems! So I bought the kit. After looking at the instructions I put the kit in a drawer! I have a scan n cut now and after watching your video I feel more confident about cutting out all of the applique pieces to make it. Thanks again!
How fun! The SNC is a perfect tool to cut all those pieces out. Really want to up your game? Stitch them down with Simply Applique. :-) I have videos on my channel about it.
Hi Becky I am from the UK love your videos I have the ScanNcut I love it and a
embroidery machine I quilt all so , I wish we had the quilt shop here you have
I would not be a home , keep up with the videos you are a good teacher and they are great
Happy New year from the U.k best wishes
Carol
Thank you! Such a nice comment. :)
Great tutorial! Thank you for making one that is complete for my needs and is less than 20 minutes😊
Thank you for sharing ❤️
Happy New Year day 🤗🎉
This is the best video I have found on scan and cut thank you 👍
This was great! My scar & cut is out of the box but hasn’t ben used in a long time so this was very helpful! Thanks 😊
Glad it was helpful!
Great Video. I have a scan and cut purchased a few years ago but found it somewhat confusing to use. You have given me the push I needed to start. Your instructions are great.
Your comment is one of the reasons I make these types of videos. When I got my first cutting machine I was intimidated by it too...and I work in computers! If I was scared of it, I can only imagine how I would feel if I didn't have a clue what button to push. It took me months to figure it out and I actually signed up for classes. Now I'm sharing a bit of that knowledge with you. If necessary, just follow the video bit-by-bit and stop it all along the way as needed. You'll get this!
Becky, You have got me saving for the Brother Disney Scanncut DX and simply applique. I have never enjoyed hand applique, just started machine applique, and I can't see doing it any other way than the way you are doing it!. I hope Brother sees what you are doing to boost thier sales and they reach out to you.
Hi,I just bought the Disney scan and cut it’s a little pricy but it comes with a
Lot of goodies Just finish cutting the Disney red box so cute, go for it.
Thank you so much the scan n cut was do confusing until I watch you video I am so happy I found you
Hi Becky. Happy New Year from Indiana. Thanks so much for the videos that you make. I've been quilting for a couple years and have done some applique but have wanted to do more. Cutting by hand is a bore and takes too much time. My brain won't stay interested...it starts planning and designing all the future things it wants to make. lol ;) Was trying to decide between the big 3 and stumbled across your channel....LOVE IT!!! You're such a hoot!!
Well, thanks to your information, I have decided that SNC DX225 is perfect for my needs, wishes and future dreams. I want to start with applique but know I will probably get into vinyl for some wall decor and as the grand-babies arrive I'm sure we will get into all kinds of fun crafts.
Now...to save the money and go visit local dealer in town that I never knew was here. Currently using a Babylock Solaris & Palette 11 and hope it will work with my what I have. I hate to buy more software if it isn't needed. Learning one piece of software is enough. LOL
Great tutorial . Good ways to use scan n cut canvas
Love my SNC650WX. It really struts it’s stuff when cutting a detailed Henna image from HTV. Intricate and always perfect. I also make decals for my son’s airplanes from Oracal651. Perfect. Great for appliqué too but so much more. Congrats on your new DX. Happy 2😊2🙂, Becky.
Wow! You're a SNC Super Star! As I said in the video, I know the SNC can do so much more that what I use it for so I'm so happy you shared. Thank you!
I love my scan and cut dx. A word of advise for those who still have it in the box is take it out and use it before the warranty is expired. I didn't use mine right away but when I did it wouldn't cut completely. I took it to a class and my instructor said to have it serviced. I ended up getting a new machine from Brother because there was an issue with the calibration. The new one works great and my grandson thinks I'm an awesome grandma because we can do so many crafty things with it. 😁
Great advice! Even more reason to get your new machines out of the box!
I wish I did this. I had some family issues right after I got mine and did not use it for over a year. When I did use it I found it was not cutting
It has sat in the box for years now. Maybe I will get it out this year
Ty for the advise. I'm terrible about waiting to use things I buy because of being nervous
This is great information
Amazing video. Thank you so much. I am so excited to start cutting fabric.
Once you use the SNC to cut fabric, you'll never look at applique projects the same way again! Thanks for watching!
Yesterday I happened upon your video for the machine embroidered composition book cover, and was fascinated -- because I have a new Bernina 770 with the embroidery module. And machine embroidery is totally new to me. I really learned a lot from just that one video. Plus I was drooling over your studio and all your "power tools."
So... today, after I opened my newly purchased ScanNCut SDX135 Pro, I started looking at some "newbie" videos. Lo and behold, on the "up next" list, I see that YOU had a video for the ScanNCut! And the reason I got mine is the same reason you like yours - for cutting applique pieces. In my case, I designed a pillow, with applique and quilting, that features a specific camper van. After I made one for myself, everyone in my camper Facebook group wanted me to make one for them. Hmmm... I thought, how could I make this easier, rather than tracing and cutting out 12 different pieces for each pillow, over and over?? Accuquilt? Ugh, custom dies. Cricut? Not sure. And then I found the ScanNCut, which sounded like exactly what I needed. I can scan my own shapes in. Now, my machine has the autoblade that detects the material being cut. And supposedly it will cut up to 3mm of thickness. What I HOPE is that I can cut several pillows' worth of pieces at a time. I was thinking also of using Hotfix Adhesive so that I might not even have to stitch along the edges of the raw-edge applique. By any chance have you tried Hotfix? The steps you showed here are ideal for helping me see how I can proceed with my applique pillow project! Thanks. And any advice or suggestions are welcome!
Thank you! I appreciate you watching and commenting.
I use my scan n cut for applique also love it don't really use it for paper or anything else mostly for sewing love it so much
I knew I had found a fellow gadget geek. New subscriber!
WoW! What an amazing lesson. I've owned the SNC since 2014 have one of the original models which I still use. I do not own the DX but I am going to give this method a try on my machine (saving to USB as it has no wireless on the original) I had not thought about scanning for canvas from paper patterns that's a pretty amazing deal because when you scan from your printer to pdf or image then bring it into other softwares you normally end up with a double line around each shape and have to remove them. I am definitely going to see if that double line is avoided with my older SNC and Canvas.
Next, your point on using the fatter areas to lift your fabric is right on, one might have also pointed out that if they try with thinner areas it is easier to "break" that line and the shape ends up in two or more pieces :/ but it's easier to pull it up when you start in the fatter part of the shape. You've definitely gained a new subscriber in me and I'm going to recommend this video when I'm asked in the future about cutting fabric on the SNC. Thank you so much!!
I am new to this. I scanned some words I had typed in Word and this is exactly what happened - double line around everything!! How do you get rid of the double line??
Becky - Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!! This is exactly why I purchased a Scan’n’Cut DX. I adore McKenna Ryan’s Pine Needle appliqué designs, but with my aging hands, I just couldn’t cut everything anymore. I knew the DX could do this, but knowing and doing are not synonymous. I have been haunting uTube looking for a good explanation, and yours made perfect sense.
I have the 225DXf. I place the fabric on the mat, heat n bond down first, leaving the paper backing on, then do half cut. Works like a dream also. Love your video.
Thanks for the info!
Do you use the regular blade or the thin fabric blade??
@@runnergurl61 I use the fabric blade.
@@cleme2558 Thank you!!
I found this video and OMG learned stuff I had NO idea I could do. My scan and cut has been sitting for over a year. Bought it from a dealer and two weeks after i bought it the instructor quit and I never got one class and the Dealer never got someone else. Then six months later the Dealer went out of business. GRRR So here I am with a brand new Scan and Cut and can't do a lot as the few videos out there are not helpful and some are confusing. GRRR. Thanks Becky for this video. You are awesome.
You are so welcome! I have a playlist for the SNC. Check it out! ruclips.net/user/PowerToolswithThreadplaylists
I do turned hand appliqué and found using their fabric support sheets caused a lot of distortion to the cut fabric on removal from the mat. I now use a freezer paper sandwich on my fabric to stabilize prior to cutting on the low tack mat. Luv your channel!
Hi Diana, can you tell me about the freezer paper sandwich ? Thank you. Never heard of this.
theresa gregg , just place your fabric between 2 layers of freezer paper, wax side to each side of the fabric, it stabilizes the fabric. You will have to adjust your blade to cut.
@@dianaedgington8009 , ok thank you. then i have seen it before.lol. sorry
Thanks, you are such a good teacher!
Thank you! Great tip for clearing the mat!
You are so welcome!
Awesome! Thank you for sharing. I just got my Disney Scan n Cut.
That is awesome!
So want one of these machines so bad. The scan n cut is so so cool.
Try florianni appliqué wonder instead of heat and bond. It’s totally amazing. I think it’s better in a lot of ways, no ironing, it is a bit expensive but I think it’s totally worth the money. Thanks dor the video😉😇
Great video and explanation. I have an older Scan n Cut. I am personally tired of applique. Also don't want to be at a computer, I want to sew. I also don't care for the need to prepare fabric before cutting. But I understand the love of this method. Thank you
Sounds like quilting is right up your alley! Enjoy the sew!
Can you point me to a tutorial that teaches from the basics. I would love to use canvas but don't know where to start. Thank you in advance. I love the way you described the icons in plain language. It opened up new roads for me to travel Technology!!! Us oldies will get their eventually with the help of people like you!
If you check my video series on the Howl-le-lujah quilt or Warmest Wishes, I show step by step how to use the Canvas and the SNC. Good luck!
love this thanks Becky i have just ordered the rotarty cutting blade for mine cant wait for it to cut as i have not cut any fabric so far and thats what i bought my cm900 to use for back in 2017 yeah i know lol xx thanks for this xx
You should be able to cut quilting cottons with the regular blade. I don't have a rotary blade it and works great!
Thank you so much for this video. You have made me want to purchase a Scan N Cut DX. LOL I want mine to use for cutting vinyl so I can embellish my own t-shirts, like you did for the t-shirt you wore in your video.
That's great! You'll love it!
@@PowerToolsWithThread I finally broke down and purchased my Scan N Cut DX yesterday. (I bought the Disney model.) What brand/type of heat transfer vinyl do you use to make the designs for your t-shirts? I need to purchase some vinyl so I can start making projects. I heard that different brands are harder to weed than others. Any suggestions you can make would be appreciated. If you have an affiliate link, please provide it. Thanks again for your Scan N Cut video Becky!
@@kristi8220 Congrats on your new SNC DX!! So fun! Here's a link to Cricut HTV that works very well. I stay away from the Sport Flex because that can only go onto nylon tshirts and isn't designed for cotton. Enjoy! Lots of color choices in this link. amzn.to/2SaIVFO
Yay! Who knew I would EVER need this. Nice to have an Expert SNC friend! (-: Great tut!
Glad it was helpful! You got this Joy!
Now I want one!! Thanks
Please keep scan n cut videos coming
Great tutorial! Thank you! I am convinced I need this machine (-:
Fantastic Iam one of those people who own scan n cut but not really used, bit more confidence now
Just get in there are start poking around. :) There are a lot of free projects on the Brother Canvas too or even inside the machine. Just start making a few simple shapes with paper on the teal low tack mat and you'd be surprised how easy it is.
Thank you. I have just purchased a new Innov-is XJ1 and it came with this scan and cut. I was wondering what I would use it for. Now I know. I do a lot of applique and this will be perfect for cutting out all my pieces.
Congrats on your new machine! You'll love it. I have an entire playlist on ScanNCut. You definitely need to check out how to turn that .fcm file from the SNC into an embroidery appliqué design! Check this out! GAME CHANGER!
Great tutorial.
Great video, enjoyed it.
I have them all love my expression and my scan n cut
u do well on your video info. very thorough thanku
Great video. Thank you!
Thanks so much for this video!

Thanks Betty I was wandering what this machine can do. I think I will buy one
That was awesome I have hardly use my Scan n Cut
Great video thanks
Great tips
excellet presentation. Thanks!
You are so sharp! I had to go Cameo due to lack of Internet ....Cameo Is all in a computer program.
Hi Joan! Happy New Year!! The Brother Canvas also has an app that can be downloaded so you can work locally on your computer without the internet. They've thought of everything! lol
I got my DX for my birthday back in August and it is still in the box🤦♀️ thanks for the tutorial maybe I’ll get brave and open it
You can do this!
Don't be afraid of it. Before you know it, you'll be making TONS of things and laughing at yourself cuz you waited so long.. get it out. and explore the horizons.
Awesome 👏🏾
Can the machine cut out an ITH Marine Vinyl/Cork hand Sanitizer Holder that you embroidered on your embroidery machine?
Great video.
Can a scan n cut be used to cut 2 1/2" squares from jelly roll strips?
I just found your channel - great videos! I notice you have the older model SnC sitting next to your DX, and that's the one I have (650W). Do you notice much difference between the older and newer versions in their ability to cut fabric? I've never been all that impressed with the one I have, and have only done a few fabric projects. Love it for vinyl and paper, though!
Watched again, do you have a RUclips that shows me how to make my embroidery file appliqué into a file on the scan n cut. You would be so proud of me I used my scan n cut for the first time this week. Don’t ask how long it has sat in the box. It is old
Fabric support sheet: that goes onto the mat before the fabric is placed fabric side down, so when does it come off the mat? I am so totally confused.
