You are so welcome!

You are welcome, I am glad you found it helpful. I will try to add a video for the Artwork Canvas to the list.

@CarolUndy Thank you Carol for the reply back.That would be much appreciated if you can do Artwork Canvas videos. Thank you again.😄

You're welcome! 😊

Hi Linda, I closed my new website at the beginning of this year. It was too much work to maintain and I barely covered the cost of running it. I did write to everyone on the website 3 months before it closed so they could download their lessons before it closed. If you would like to discuss this further, please message me via my Facebook page Machine Embroidery and Digitizing. Sorry can't seem to get a link on my phone and can't get to a computer right now. Will try to add a link tomorrow.

Hi again Linda, Here is the link to my Facebook page where you can message me. facebook.com/CAUndy I have updated the description on this video, and will be able to make the zoom meeting recording mentioned in the video available soon. I have some other short courses available here. payhip.com/CarolUndy They are all videos which you download. Cheers Carol

@@CarolUndy thank you sewww much. I have learned sooo much for the years!

Hi Joanne, Bernina have free downloadable workbooks on their website. Here is the link to the Australian site. I'm sure the other countries have the same. www.bernina.com/en-AU/Learn-Create-AU/Mastery-Workbooks/Software They are quite basic, but are a good starting point. Of course you have a Reference manual in your software. Just click on the Help menu and then click on Reference Manual to open the PDF manual. There are also all the videos made by Bernina. You can access them from the Home Screen of your software. Watch my video on the Home Screen to see how to do that. Here is a link. kzbin.info/www/bejne/hISrZ6pog912abc Cheers Carol

Hi Anita, I have been offering one on one zoom meetings, but I realise that time zone differences make this difficult for some, so I have just set up a product on my Payhip store so that I can answer questions in writing with pics if appropriate. Here is a link to the product. payhip.com/b/AnHd7 Cheers Carol

I am so glad that the video helped!

I am so glad you enjoyed it!

I will try to include work arounds for older versions where I can.

Hi Mary, Yes I have closed my website. I have now removed the link from the description. I have also added a summary of the Workflow process to the description which was basically the PDF I used to have for free on my website. I do have some of the paid courses from my website still available here. payhip.com/CarolUndy

You're welcome. 😊

Very good question Tammy. I like to keep my satin stitches around the 4 to 6 mm length, but it does depend on what the design is going to be sewn on. Satin stitch will pull the fabric in more than step fill, so long satin stitches on a finer fabric would not be a good idea. On a heavier fabric with a good stabiliser you might be able to get away with slightly longer stitches.

@ thank you 😊

You are welcome, I am glad you found it helpful.

Yes, they are a labour of love, but I enjoy making them.

See my reply to your previous comment. Also yes, you can stitch over longer satin stitches. You do not need to group the objects. If you want to use monofilament then just make the line a different color so you can stop and change the thread. As with any design check your stitch order and start and end points to reduce unneccessary jumps.

Hi Karen, If you have Designer Plus, you can actually stamp in your own pattern of needle penetrations. The tool used is the Carving Stamp. You can read about it in the Reference Manual starting on page 640. I do have two older videos demonstrating this tool. Here are the links. Part 1 kzbin.info/www/bejne/rarUgJZ7nL2ClaM Part 2 kzbin.info/www/bejne/qJmyY5VsiMmpfpo Unfortunately with the Creator level you are limited to the in built fills.

I am glad you enjoyed it.

Glad you liked it.

My pleasure Fenny.

Knowing people find my videos enjoyable and useful makes me happy.

Love what you do.Keep up the good work.

I'm glad you are enjoying the series!

So glad you found it helpful!

So glad!

Glad you found something new to play with. Have fun.

My pleasure.

Glad you found it useful.

Hi Karen, When you digitize more than one object the software applies closest join by default. That is, it sets the start point of the second object as close as possible to the end point of the previous object. You can change it if you want it somewhere else. You can also turn off that feature, but you will be asked to manually set the start and end points of each object when you press enter to create the stitches. See this video for a fuller explanation. kzbin.info/www/bejne/sHnYpKmkp8yJpac Cheers Carol

@@CarolUndy Thanks again

I appreciate the feedback Fenny. It encourages me to do more.

I am pleased you are finding them useful.

Unfortunately you can not increase the size of the nodes in embroidery canvas. I sometimes hide the stitches (make sure show outlines is on) so I can see the nodes clearly and know where to look for them when I show the stitches again. Zooming out can help too. as the nodes are not affected by the zoom, they appear larger in relation to the object when zoomed out. Cheers Carol

@@CarolUndy Thanks-i kept zooming in the try to separate them from the stitches..obviously the wrong tactic. Given their target population you’d think they would make them a little larger. They are much easier to see in adobe illustrator and mySewNet/Premeir2+

@@KarenQuilts4Fun I guess if there were a lot of nodes and they were bigger, it might cause issues too. They could start to overlap. A setting to choose large or small would be good.

I'm glad you like my videos. Yes you can copy object properties from one object to another. Right click on the object you want to copy from and at the bottom of the pop up you will see the option to copy the properties. You can then right click on the object you want to copy to and click on Apply Object properties. It will not apply the color. If you want to copy the properties to more than one object, you can hold your control key down and select each object you want to copy to. Then right click on one of them and choose Apply Object Properties.

@@CarolUndy Thanks:)…when I’m done watching all your videos I’ll likely contact you for a 1 on1…it seems your website is currently down. I just had hand surgery so won’t be sewing for a few months-time to design!

@@KarenQuilts4Fun I closed my website and am now concentrating on KZbin. I do still have some courses for sale here. payhip.com/CarolUndy

Glad you enjoyed the video. For Redwork, I would just use the default stitch length, unless it is a very simple shape with no tight corners, then you could lengthen the stitch slightly. You will probably use the blackwork run tool to eliminate jump stitches. This would stitch over everything twice so would give a bolder look.

Glad you found it helpful.

Oh good. Happy digitizing.

You are most welcome.

Pathing does make the stitch out smoother and faster. The machine does not have to slow down to tie off and trim and then tie in for the next object

Thanks Caroline. Part 3 will be up soon so you can finish the design in plenty of time.

Glad you found it useful.

You are so welcome!

That's good to hear.

You’re welcome 😊

I wil add that one to my list. Should be interesting.

Hi Fenny, Enjoy your travels.
