Thank you so much. I have wanted you to do this for so long. Now all I have to do is watch this a 100 times to write the steps down and I am on my way. Many THANKS 😂
I am so glad a while ago that I found you 🎉. You have made be not fear my embroidery machine. I have had it for 2 years and wouldn’t touch it. Now I love it. Thank you ❤
Thank you for showing how to convert design to an applique PEF or EXP embroidery file. I just purchased my Scan N Cut machine. Now must purchase Stitch Artist 2. Great lesson.
Thank you very much. Just check Embrilliance to make sure those two items were checked. Also, didn't realize that each.element needed to be a new design in order to remove all those hidden stitches. WOW! Saving this for future reference.
@@PowerToolsWithThread Becky, love everything you and your family produce. I have 3 of Keith’s ripper/stiletto combo tools and your sons ruler rack for my mom. She loves it! I had tried 3 other racks for her prior to finding your sons and none of them worked for one reason or another. Your sons ruler rack addressed all of the issues she had and it’s PERFECT!
OMG Becky. This short video has taught me a lot, a lot. Not only deleting "junk" from the mat in Canvas Workspace but how to use my Stitch Artist II. Thank you.
Thank you so much Becky, your method of instruction is excellent. I enjoyed watching this video and now understand how simple it is to combine Scan n Cut with Embrilliance for appliqué although I will need to view this episode a few more times to become really familiar. Kind regards, Em.
WOW! Thank you for this tutorial. I learned quite a bit. One small thing I learned is double clicking the hoop size in Embrilliance to change orientation - golly gee I didn't know this. thanks
Thank you so much Becky, now I can do my Chicken Salad quilt by Lori Holt. I play and pause this video until I wrote all the steps down and printed it out. Thanks a million. Your the best. 🎉🎉 Love you video ❤
Fabulous tutorial!! I always learn things from your videos but this one is solving some of my Stitch Artist 2 and appliqué issues. It’s a keeper, save forever, kind of video. Thanks for sharing.
I was so excited when I watched this! I thought that this would solve the issue I had with hidden stitches but unfortunately it didn't. I have reached out to Embrilliance support to see if they can help me. Thanks Becky for making all these videos!
YOU ARE THE BOMB BECKY!!!!! You have inspired me to jump in the deep end and purchase Embrilliance Stitch Artist 2. I wanted to participate on this sew along but didn't want to do the applique on my regular sewing machine. Guess who is now going to join?!?!? THANKS AGAIN for all of your tutorials!!!
Thank you! This was so helpful and it was fun to try it out today! I am new to the scan n cut and to Stitch Artist! I made the Bee Vintage and the Home Town quilts Lori Holt's way and it was A LOT of work! This makes it so much easier and now I can make some matching pillows the easy way! :)
Very good video. Thank you. I’m going to make a memory quilt out of my Moms old shirts, I think this will be the best way to give a lovingly made quilt it’s very best outcome. ❤
Great instructions! I only have stitch artist 1, so disappointed. I really like this idea of snapplique, but over $600 to purchase SA2. Australia price! Thanks for a really great tutorial!
Actually, you can get just an upgrade from SA1 to SA2 for less than $200 US so it shouldn't be that much more in AU. And if you wait for a coupon, it's even less! tinyurl.com/BeckysEmbrillianceLink
EDITED TO ADD: I sent Tech Support an email and got an answer within the hour! WOW! They agreed the area was so small that SA2 didn't see it as underlay. They suggested I could remove the stitches manually OR (and this is a great idea) I can remove the line on the artwork first.************** Thank you for another excellent tutorial! We're making 5 childrens quilts (for charity) and each one has 5 owls across the top. The S&C makes it easy and now SA3 even better. I followed your steps exactly for the owl and for the most part, it worked perfectly and removed the underlying stitches. However, the Owl is sitting on a tree limb and the underlay wasn't removed where the feet and the tree limb overlap. Could it be that the pieces were too small and the software just let them be? It's a small enough area that it won't really matter.
I just got my templates yesterday and did the outline today. I have embrillance essential but not stitch artist as I have BES4. I should still be able to make the stitch file I think. Thanks for sharing 😊
Hi Becky thanks so much for this tutorial, I’ve been struggling with this for sometime now & I jumped for joy when I opened your video! I have now digitised a 7 petal flower with a circle in the middle. The problem is that the hidden stitches were removed from under the circle but not the petals overlapping themselves, what am I doing wrong?
Have you tried scanning the shapes using the scanning mat? It would save quite a bit of time overall if you can get the machine to recognise it them successfully. I work full time so I am very frugal with my stitching time! I've followed you since you first started stitchouts so I'd be interested to know if this works. Thanks.
hi Becky could you please make a tutorial on lori holt's bee vintage sunbonnet sue and overall bill please? thank you and looking forward to be able to make the cruise next year.
I sat down yesterday to watch this video, stopping constantly to write down the steps so I could follow. I followed all these instructions to a T, however, I still have blanket stitches underneath other objects. When I contacted Embrilliance, they said the brother snc adds nodes and are now telling me I have to get rid of some of the nodes, but which ones and how many can I safely remove? I wish I had your special touch Becky! I just took your class at Mulqueens in Tempe, I've watched all of your videos, taken notes, but it's just not working for me. I feel like I've wasted so much money on the scan n cut and Embrilliance software. I'm fairly computer literate, so I'm lost as to why this isn't working for me like it is for you. I've spent hours trying to get this to work when I could have just cut the pieces out and been done. Gah!
I don’t think that the nose created by brother canvas would cause the problem. Are you looking at the design once you hit appliqué and in the objects panel it still says.FCM? You need to save it as an embroidery file and then open a new window and pull in the embroidery design. It should not say.FCM in the objects panel on the title of the design.
There’s another step that you can do. Bring in the first design, and before you bring in the second one go up to the top and click create, design, begin new design. Continue to do that as you bring in all shapes that overlap one another. Then save and open the embroidery design.
I saved it as stitch and working and when I open the .pes file in Embrilliance, it just shows what I named it (SM Snowman B1) and then Applique under that. I just cannot figure this out. When I pull up the working file, it does show .fcm. @@PowerToolsWithThread
That is how I did it, per your video and nothing I do will remove the stitches under the overlaps. I even tried remove hidden stitches. That did'nt work either. I am completely stumped.@@PowerToolsWithThread
Do you find that the no-show mesh feels the same in the finished quilt? I am worried that my quilts won’t feel the same as without using it. Would love to hear your thoughts!
Diane, there is no difference in size as with Lori's method you cut 1/4" outside the drawn shape. when you sew the 1/4" around and turn right side out to create the applique, the shape is the same size as you traced.......sense?😄
Unfortunately no. You need SA2 to see the Vector button. If you already have SA1, you can just get the upgrade and not have to pay for the entire SA2 package. Here's a link. In the left menu, choose Stitch Artist and then there's an arrow to Upgrades and you can choose the SA1 to SA2 upgrade for less than the full version. tinyurl.com/tpzb5x4z
You have to have at least stitch artist Two in order to see the vector button. I think you have stitch artist one. There is an upgrade that you can purchase and not have to buy the whole thing again. tinyurl.com/4utndwf7
@@PowerToolsWithThread thank you so much. I did get the SA2 and it works!! Question. In your example all of the pieces overlapped. If my pieces doesn't need hidden stitches like a duck and then beak on the top but no hidden stitches do I still need to bring each item in separately?
Becky….I need your help please. I have Embrillance Stitch Artist 1 and I have traced my Lori Holt shapes and downloaded them into Stitch Artist. I made an appliqué and sent it to my Solaris. However, when it gets to my machine it is smaller that the original shape size. Is there something in Stitch Artist that I am missing? I wrote to Embrillance but have not yet received a response. Any suggestions you can offer are deeply appreciated. Thank you!
I'll be teaching hands-on at Bayou University on Sept 15-16, 2023 in Baton Rouge! Every student gets a SNC and a Luminaire. It hasn't been announced yet. Sign up for Allbrands.com emails and you'll get the notification when it opens. :) Hope to see you there!
Hi Becky, I have Embrilliance E. I have tried to adjust the size of my svg files 1.0 and it won't print out any smaller it stays the same size as the 1.5 that is formatted in the software. Do I have to have a scan N cut to do this? Love your videos!!!
Hmm, I'm not sure. Is it saved properly? I don't normally print my svg files, but cut them out instead. Half of a mm would be hard to see in a print I would think.
Hi Becky I purchased stitchartrist 2 upgrade without having the first one and I don't get the option to click on stitches, I did download the free software, my question is do I have to purchase stitchartist 1 in order to have the ability to create? Thanks, I'm a little disappointed with embrilliance I wrote to them asking this question and never received a response Thank you in advance..
If you only purchased the upgrade, then yes, you need to also purchase Stitch Artist 1 to be able to create embroidery applique from vector graphics. Be sure to use the code YOURMARK23 before Aug 28. I think it's on sale too through Aug 25 to get the best price so you can add the coupon code on top of the sale price. www.embrilliance.com/jamaffiliates/powertoolswiththread
Hi Becky I am trying to do Snapplique and wanted to review this video. Now Im confused bc of this video verses lets say the hoppy easter video. In strawberry vid you delete create every piece yet in easter you dont. Also using the image is frustrating bc it keeps moving around trying to set your pieces. What am I not getting?
Becky, I don’t understand why you have to delete and create new designs. I have the two boxes checked mark and bring all the line designs in from canvas and assemble them, assign the blanket stitch and color. When I embroider them out I get the hidden stitches.
You can change them in the Objects Panel vs. the Properties box. But you need to wait to do that until after they are an embroidery design or they change right back when you click the blanket stitch.
