I love that bag you made. I cannot find the pattern. I have never made a bag before but want to make one exactly like yours and of course the vinyl and Santa too

It would be awesome if the design came with svg files for the cricut. Then you could just place it on the placement stitch and iron it down with no further cutting required 🤔

Jess you did a fantastic job demonstrating. Tip--I like to use a color that's different than the GlitterFlex by a few shades so that it's easier to see where to trim. All that sparkle makes it harder to see the stitches if they're the same color. The satin stitch will cover everything. I LOVE the bag idea. Will have to make some.

Ok, now that I finished watching the whole video, I will be waiting the one on the em1010. I can tell you that you can still float on the hoop for the em1010, I usually use instead of wonder clips, hair clips, the big ones, and work fine, OR just use tape. Also, on the vinyl, most people don't iron the the vinyl until the design is complete. You can keep working your appliqué as the thread will keep the vinyl down, and if you have a heat press just press it there, use the fabric you use on top still OR parchment paper. I do not own a heat press, but I use at the end the Cricut Easypress 2 to cover the whole design, with the parchment paper between the presser and the design and it activates the vinyl adhesive all at once.... just different ways to do it.... LOVE your easy way to explain and step by step demonstration and LOVE these design, will have to buy them....

Hi, Jessica! I love this vinyl for this project but am needing solid color vinyls to embroider on key fobs I am making as keepsakes for my brother’s Celebration of Life. One side will have NASCAR quilting fabric and the embroidery side will be vinyl. Can you recommend a vendor for solid vinyls I can easily embroider fonts on? TIA!

😘

I was hoping you would be telling about size of needles and should the stitch count be changed on the vinyl..

I’m new to embroidery how do you know when to put down material for appliqué and when it’s just stitching ? Do these embroidery designs come with instructions?

Hello. I've tried doing this with a regular iron but it melted my back vinyl. I'm thinking my iron may have been too hot. I will purchase the mini iron like yours. Which heat settings did you use? Thanks.

Great video! Definitely making some of these little guys for Christmas. Have a Viking Designer SE, and while I love her, whenever I try to do embroidery she gets a little temperamental. I think it’s tension issues too, so I’m going to try a thread holder like you demonstrated, but what type of thread do you use in your bobbin? Regular sewing thread?

@OklaRoots

3 жыл бұрын

I use Bottom Line thread in the bobbin. It has been great!

I have a s brother stellaire and a 800e embroidery machines, I had these before I went into bag making. I think $20 is too much, as I would only use one or two of the Xmas designs, I have some lovely Applique Xmas designs that are a fraction of the cost. You as always did a fab video xx

Is it possible to iron HTV after stitching is complete and has been removed from the hoop instead of as you go?

That panel might work on a Bonnie bucket bag.

What size needle do u use on embroidery machine when embroidering vinyl, does it leave tiny holes around your embroidery design, im trying to get rid of holes around my design, not sure if u can ..

Hi...... I loved loved loved your tutorial of embroidering monograms on hats (em1010)... I thought this would be another em1010.... Was it because you had to float? Because either the 8-in-1 hoop, which uses a stick stabilizer and you just stick it on it, like floating.... OR the magnetic hoop master... Just wondering... I have a single-needle machine which I use for monograms or 1-color designs, but everything else goes to my multi-needle....

You also float cork material too.

I would look at what size designs you want to use and look for a machine that has them available. So be sure to think about the things you see and love, then check out the size. It is so intimidating to know what to look for if you haven't done it before. Do you have a sewing center nearby that can let you sew on their machines before you buy? Also, maintenance nearby is good to have too. I started with a Singer Futura XL400 and it wasn't centering properly. Super frustrating but because I bought it on Amazon, I didn't have maintenance contract. Luckily, when I bought my Husqvarna Viking Topaz50, the shop sent in my Singer and fixed it without charging me! I do like my Singer too but also have a HV Ruby DeLuxe too. I don't know if any of this helps you but I hope so.

The hoop creases the vinyl and also pulls it too tight. Vinyl is great when floating. I'll show this with the 10 needle next week!

I have a video request please. I notice you make a lot of totes and I would like to make some totes in various sizes. I have researched and researched and I still haven't totally figured this out. When you want a tote let's say to end up being 6 in wide by 10 inches tall, with the boxed bottom let's say a 2-in depth, How do you know what size to cut out the pattern? because from what I understand when you add the box bottom you lose some of the height and width too, but more height I think. Can you make a video on the formula for figuring all of this out and also take into account the seams. This would be so greatly appreciated.

@4golfing

3 жыл бұрын

2 INCH DEPTH = 2 INCH SQUARE CUTOUT. SO, 10 INCHES TALL, PLUS THE 2 INCH FOR DEPTH, PLUS THE AMOUNT OF YOUR SEAM ALLOWANCES, BOTTOM AND TOP. WIDTH - 6 inches, plus seam allowances, plus 2 inches for box bottom, therefor, 13 tall, x 9. top will change depending on how much seam allowance. try this on a cheap piece of fabric or even paper to see how it works out. good luck
