WOW ! I was wondering how to work all of those things... I learned about the snowman, the LED thing, for needle positioning! using the projector properly! This is one I will watch a few more times and it is in my favorites! I have a hard time with which screen to find things ... Set, Embroidery, Layout... Edit?? just about got it! Thank you Terry!
I am totally new to machine embroidery and using the snowman. What would help me so much is seeing exactly what to do when my snowman doesn't want to play nice. No matter how I place the sticker I still get the message machine can not recognize the snowman or design is outside placement area. A video showing the actual process of fixing this problem would be so helpful. Very frustrated at this point.
@@terrijob7818 Terri, try using a larger hoop. Make sure the snowman is positioned with the small circle on the top. It might help you to just hoop up some tear away stabilizer in a 5 x 7 hoop. Go to Embroidery and the fonts menu and select font 1 (S) and type your name. Draw 3 lines inside your hoop at different angles. Make sure you look at the bumps or indentations on the inside of your hoop. You will notice the 5 x 7 hoop is actually larger than 5 x 7 but the embroidery area in the hoop is defined by these plastic bumps on the inside of the hoop. Your lines should not go outside of what is designated as the top, bottom or sides of the embroidery area also known as embroidery field. Now place a snowman sticker on the line where you want your name to begin and see if you get error messages.
Thank you again! I was going to take a lesson on the snowman but your video made it perfectly clear as to how to use it. One question, where do you turn on LED?
I had an issue with the snowman sticker. I was embroidering a tea towel, made sure I marked the middle and place the sticker on the mark. After hooping in a larger hoop, I scanned for the snowman. It recognized the sticker but told me, it was beyond the embroidery field. Did this twice. I removed sticker, used the move buttons and lined up the center mark. Started the design with no problems. Stitched out beautifully btw. I can’t figure out why I received that message. The only thing I can think of is I turned or rotated the design twice. Thanks for any help
Karen Foxworth - try placing the snowman directionally the way you rotated the design. You don’t have to stitch it out, but just test it with hooped fabric.

I’ll try that. Thank you so much.

If you are referring to the crosshair LED light, select the icon that looks like your W foot in the upper left hand corner of the screen.
