Fantastic Video Becky!! Thank you so much for all your helpful video and all that you do for all of us Betty

I'm way late in watching this. I figured you would perfect an easy way to do the Lori Holt projects. I have several as well as a box full of her fabrics. No chickens yet, but not to say it's not going to happen. They're absolutely adorable. I'm guessing it's the same process using SNC and SA3. Hopefully I'll find my Happy Halloween project before my kit comes so my grand nephews will get it before Halloween.

Hi, after a week of visiting the grandkids, repairs to our pickup truck and getting the flu, I'm finally starting to feel like myself again. I hope you have a wonderful week ahead! Thank you for this video!

You’re an angel to do so much extra work just to accommodate those of us with smaller hoops. I thank you profusely. I am seriously considering purchasing the software you are using, mine does a good job but is harder to use and it was way more expensive. At my age with one foot in the grave and another on the banana peel sewing keeps my days full of joy and continuous learning. All the new technology can be challenging, but it is worth the effort to learn because it makes the sewing quicker and much easier. Love you and your channel, Green Bananas.

Oh my goodness you have me laughing in my coffee! What a sweetheart you are. Yes, while other software can technically do the same thing, I'm all about quick and easy. As you so eloquently put it, life is short so I need software that can expedite the process vs. making me doink around for hours. At $169, it's worth every penny to get the sheer joy from it. www.allbrands.com/products/65662-brother-sabessadl-simply-applique-creative-embroid

I appreciate that

Thanks so much, Becky! I’m very grateful! After taking a sewing machine appliqué class last week I was truly dreading having to stitch these chickens on my machine since my hoop was too small! This will save hours of work and lots of frustration! Your instructions are the best!

Thank you Becky for this wonderful video, I again learned so much from it. I have never done multiple hoopings for a project was too scared... now with your tutorial I know I can do it !!! You are such a good teacher and explain things so I can totally follow and understand the process. Again, Thank you so much

Great job Becky!

Hi Don!

Fantastic job AGAIN on explaining stuff since I do not have the HUGE hoop, only a 8/12 by 14. Now to get started, wish me luck. I really enjoy the way you show exactly how you did things, and yes even the cutting of the fabric not as wide as you wanted. I have made that mistake too many times !!!!

I love that when I have a question I can do a search and there you are with the answer. Thanks so much.

Wow! I love you Becky. You make things look so simple. Thank you so much for this great video. Now, I won't be envious of those with bigger hoops. lol. Great job on explaining multiple hoopings.

Well, I can't promise you won't have hoop envy. But you can do applique designs that normally require a larger hoop. :)

Thankyou. I thought I was going to iron the pieces on and hand guide my button hole stitch. My largest hoop is 8x14 and they are just too big. You are so smart.

Amazing, Becky! I'm not doing Chicken Salad, but the golden nuggets of information are great for other projects that require multiple hoopings. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. Your chickens are coming out beautifully. So cute!

Great video ! I have an applique pattern that now I will tackle with my scan and cut. Your instruction has given me the confidence to do it. Off topic, what do you take with you in the RV when you travel for sewing? do you have a sample list of what has worked for you? THANK YOU. !!!!!

My biggest hoop is 10x16.... Now I can try doing multiple hoopings.... Thanks for a great and informative tutorial!!

Thanks for all your awesome instruction. Slowly, but surely, I am becoming comfortable with the Simply Applique Software. If you find time, I would love to have you do a lesson on how to set up an applique when the main body of the applique is larger than the largest hoop..

Well, you have to sew that part down with your sewing machine. There's no way around that if a part is larger than your largest embroidery hoop.

Becky The free program you mentioned will it Do the appliqué for us than Save design and then stitch it out with our software I have art for Bernina‘s?

No sorry. Express is a module of Embrilliance that will only do a couple of things so you can try it out before purchasing Embrilliance. Embrilliance does not import the fcm file to create applique like Simply Applique does. Your software will create applique but how to do it from an exact shape I have no idea. I don't know that software. But for $169 you can get this super easy software to do this for you. www.allbrands.com/products/65662-brother-sabessadl-simply-applique-creative-embroid

Hi Lori, Thank you so much for this great video. I do have a question though. How do you get rid of the stitching underneath so you don’t have 2 layers of stitching? Hope this question makes sense. I am digitising a very large appliqué design where pieces are overlapping & I really don’t want any stitching underneath where they overlap.

@PowerToolsWithThread

Жыл бұрын

You have to do each fcm piece one at a time and save them as separate embroidery files. Then merge those separate files into one design and the software will remove overlaped stitches.

Darn…. I was just getting ready to ask about your T-shirt and it pops up No longer in print. Sad! But… I did learn great info on multiple hooping. Another great video. This by far the best video I have seen on multiple hooping.

I was following you along just find. But how did you place the fabric so the machine was sewing in the correct place?

@PowerToolsWithThread

2 жыл бұрын

Once the grid is on center over the sticky target paper, the grid and the fabric are placed in the hoop so the grid fits with the little tabs on the sides of the hoop. That centers the entire project. :-)

Quick question, can you resize the chicken when you scan it to your scan n cut. Or in canvas once you put it in the order that goes. Can it be resize to fit a 5×7 hoop?

@PowerToolsWithThread

Yes, you absolutely can. Just resize before you cut your fabric.

Hi Becky, Do you use the Fabric blade when you do Appliques? I just realized the fabric holder does not come with the blade, I purchased one but It doesn't fit.

Do you have a video to show how to design an ITH by machine or software.

Is Simply Applique required to create the stitch out on these designs?

@PowerToolsWithThread

2 жыл бұрын

That is the method I'm using with that software to make these chickens. You need either Simply Applique or BES4 to do this.

Becky…in Embrillance can you add stippling around the appliqué, or a quilting design around and have it work on the embroidery machine? I am loving the chicken quilt. Would love to win the Chicken quilt by Lori Holt donated by MRS. M.

You could...but I would do the background design before stitching down the chicken.

Hello! I’ve been wanting to do a huge monogram for a pillow case. I don’t know how to slice the letters either horizontally or vertically. Would this work or would you happen to know of anything else?

Designs by juju has some split letter, monogram that are already digitized. Sometimes it’s easier to just get one and add it to your project. That’s what I would do.
