Hi everyone for todays project I am showing you how I created the machine embroidery design in embrilliance essentials, from two stitch files I got free in creative fabrica, links to the font and design will be below.
I am not sure I made myself clear in the video but I've never done a left chest placement stitch out before, so I was test stitching this design on an old t-shirt. It has been washed and worn a couple of times, but to be honest it shrunk in the wash so I don't wear it anymore, so its going to be my test garment, but I thought I would record a video for anyone new to machine embroidery.
I know I say when doing ScanNCut projects, test cut before you start on your best card stock, so why wouldn't I do the same when doing embroidery projects, well I suppose for me in the past Ive mainly embroidered towels, tea towels and fabric for bags etc and I think they are more forgiving.
However, I am totally new to clothing I did a black t-shirt recently and it worked out perfectly, I think I was just lucky, it was also a centre front placement which I think is easier.
So this pink t-shirt is going to be my test stitching piece, do any of you do this?
Things Ive learnt from this process
When doing tone on tone stitching I need a design which is more dense in stitches.
If using a bean stitch use either a contrasting colour thread or one that is at least 1 or 2 shades darker, this thread was to close to the colour of my shirt.
For this particular design I needed the design to be at least 1" over and down for better placement.
So do you have any tips, if so please leave a comment.

Hi everyone, I thought I would show you how I made these key fobs using my ScanNCut and my Brother V5LE embroidery machine.
Ive used the SNC before to cut applique pieces for projects but I think this is the first time ive used it to make a complete project, so no hand cutting involved at all.

Hi everyone, thank you to everyone on instagram who said they would like this tutorial.
I am showing how I used a machine embroidery PES stitch file in my ScanNCut to create the cut fabric for my in the hoop corner bookmark.
This is such a quick stitch out and great for gifts, the ones I made previously were for family and they loved them. Im using mine in a diary they don't just have to be a bookmark for a reading book!
I got the stitch file free from Creative Fabrica as part of my membership, there is so much on the CF website for all types of crafts.
Click below if you want information on how to join and the ways to pay. I will leave a direct link to the stitch file too. I hope you like the project.
