How Do I Stitch Around Shapes With Design Center? (Luminaire)

[@marioncollinswilliam]

I’m so thankful for this! I’m late to the party bc I never got the hand of this! THANK YOU!

[@jerrymiller5288]

Thank you for showing us a step by step on how to Stitch Around Shapes. Showing us the results & critiquing the issues was just as insightful. More tutorials please! 👍

[@dianneuyeda6909]

Your video was EXCELLENT! Your demonstration was well paced and constantly showing the screen helped my understanding tremendously. Thank you!

[@sewingwithmel]

Thank you!!!!

Finally, a video I can understand! I have a stellaira Xj1 with the upgrade which supposedly makes it like luminaire 2(according to the salesman anyway) and it’s way smarter than me! This video I can put beside my machine and then do it! I hope you have lots of videos! Thank you!

[@cynthialodermeier5291]

Great tutorial! Thanks sew much!

[@janicemcendarfer8093]

What a great video and I love your cheat sheet idea.

[@NanaT2016]

The WONDERFUL tutorial!!! I just traded my Brother Dream 2 for a Luminaire XP3. I love how you comment with the do’s and don’t’s and not just the exact steps to do ! It is soooooo helpful to see how to correct the step you may not do correctly as much as how to do the steps. Do you think the stylus for my IPad (Apple pencil 2) might work with my Luminiare XP 3 ? Please continue making these videos 🙏🏻. They are excellent for the new machine owner ! I look forward to learning all this machine can do ! THANKS SO MUCH !!

You are sew welcome!! As far as the iPad pen, I am just not sure, as I don't have any Apple devices. But try it, what can it hurt?

Wow! Thank you for this! Excellent teaching video.

Great tutorial!

[@rachelcurry8205]

Can you combine the use of stylus and the other drawing tools and they actually connect?

[@kmsew11]

Thank you! I have a quilt top with 3 different sizes and shapes of birds... Is there a way to save these after I have drawn around them? There are about 10 to 15 birds in the small shape, about 10 in medium shape and about 6 or 7 in large shape of bird.

[@sewingwithmel]

Yes, you would save them while you are in My Design Center, before you turn them into embroidery designs, in case you need to go back and edit them, That file is your working file. Once you save them to the embroidery format, you would simply save tm to your machine, or a usb. :)

What about using a mouse? Could you?

[@maryhickman8413]

Great video, I will try using this more now. Another Mel. (Mary Ellen) 24:33 24:33

[@conniel.4601]

Helpful, thanks.

[@pattypoole6061]

Could you show how to do this if you don’t have the scan feature?

[@sewingwithmel]

Do you mean like the Stellaire, which uses an app?

[@pattypoole6061]

@@sewingwithmel I have the Baby Lock Altair. It is like the Stellaire, it doesn’t have the scan feature.

[@pattypoole6061]

@@sewingwithmel , so the answer is yes

[@AngiesQuilting]

Mel, the first steps did not work on my Luminaire. It asked me to put a sticker in place. What am I doing wrong?

[@sewingwithmel]

Angie, I just saw this. Go into your settings, and turn off the fabric thickness sensor.

[@AngiesQuilting]

Thank you! Just saw your message, and now it's off. @@sewingwithmel
