Some of you may know that I was having trouble yesterday opening an embroidery file that I bought off the internet.
I managed to sort out the problem and stitch out the file.
The pink case in the photo is the design stitched at it’s normal size and I’ve added a pair of glasses to give you an idea of scale. The glasses fit but it’s a snug fit.
The other two have been stitched at 20% bigger so should be able to take a regular shape pair of sun glasses.
I bought the design Here
I have to say thank you to one of our Facebook members who created this little in the hoop heart embroidery design and also created a ScanNCut cutting file too.
So today I’ve used my ScanNCut to cut the hearts from calico and used her embroidery file to make this in the hoop design on my Janome Memory Craft 9900.
I’ve made a little makeup/pencil case with the design.
So I was looking around the net recently and I came across this cute bird cushion project on a Brother website Here
So today I decided to try it out, the link above gives you the pattern for both the branch and the bird. I printed the pattern off twice I scanned one bird pattern into the ScanNcut and used scan to cut data, but I would suggest you cut away the pattern section names before you start as my scan picked those up so I scanned again without them.
Also the wing piece is on top of the body section so I cut just that piece from my second pattern and added to my scan mat so that I could scan all the parts in go and save them all together.
I used HeatNBond as usual on the back of my fabrics and as you can see it cut perfectly as always.
Finally I cut out the branch pattern by hand and traced around it onto my fabric and stitched with a decorative stitch.
Here is the finished cushion.
I am on a roll now with these, I love them.
