Make this Adorable Scarecrow in your Embroidery Machine! Beginner Embroidery Friendly

[@DD-ek8qc]

This guy is a great compliment to Happy Halloween. Got it while on sale. I'm kitting from my stash.

[@lindapucillo7875]

Such a cute project, and your instructions are invaluable. It turned out perfect! As a garment sewer for many years, we used to cut the button holes open with a razor blade. It did work but we often cut our fingers on them. Thank you for all your tutorials. I am in awe of your skill and talent.

[@patriciaruppert201]

That is the cutest project ever. ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@mhy2576]

Becky! Outstanding tutorial-as always. Thank you!

[@annetteyamamoto2053]

Just ordered the design, love it. Ordered the fabric kit, they are substituting parts of it already! But will trust that I will like the substitution. I am very beginner level. Wish me luck! lol

[@minervamontes4087]

That turned out so cute!!

[@TamaraTrock]

So cute. Your how to videos are great.

[@Joy4650B]

Well isn't that the CUTEST fall decoration! I want to have one to hang on my door outside. How cute would it be on the RV door outside? Wonder how I could attach it. I think I need to order that fun project. GREAT instruction my friend, al always.

[@helenword8008]

Becky, did you use HeatnBond lite on the fabric for the scarecrow?

[@TexasMyTexas]

This is so cute! Can’t wait to try. I have the Brother PR1055X and can’t get the wireless feature for transferring files to work. I bet an error message in Embrillance that says there was and error, and nothing shows up at my machine..😤😤.. any suggestions, or tips and tricks?

[@PowerToolsWithThread]

Mine has been doing that too recently. However, the Brother Design Database Transfer has been working perfectly. kzbin.info/www/bejne/jZ3XpZ2Kls1nipI

[@PowerToolsWithThread]

Also, check any Windows Defender firewall rules. Someone also told me that an update was done to Windows Defender and it wouldn't allow those files to transfer to her Solaris. Her husband did something to change the firewall rules and it works now.

[@TexasMyTexas]

Thank you!! I’ll give the design database a try and see about my firewall.

[@sharonsienaski6919]

Just ordered. Can I use my DIME sticky hoop? Or not because you’re using the Pellon ? Thank you!

[@PowerToolsWithThread]

I wouldn't use the sticky hoop. You don't want any stabilizer showing on the back when it's finished. A sticky hoop is great when a backing will cover any sticky stabilizer left in the project.

[@janedavis2128]

Wow I need to watch again

[@lauraruthruff4741]

Becky.. Im not sure if you mentioned.. did you use sf101 on your fabrics?

[@PowerToolsWithThread]

I did not. The two layers of the fibrous WSS works fine and I didn't notice any significant puckering. If you notice any, you certainly can use the SF101 - especially on the head with the fill in the cheeks.

[@janedavis2128]

I am learning so much watching your videos. Thanks

[@donnacamp5663]

thank you I love watching you because you explain it where it is easy to understand just bought the scarcrow and going to give it a try I have a 5 X 7 machine I had a 4 X 4 and upgraded I have only done words on fabric with my 4 X 4 my next up grade will be the machine you have but am enjoying my new machine for now I am a beginner so you make it looks so easy can't wait to start I used my 4 X 4 machine I made a lot of Memory Pillows with the poem thank you again

[@carladouglas9667]

HI, I put out all my fall and thought this would be so cute to go with. Thay are out of stock and don't know if it will come back in. Darn, maybe I can make my own pattern???

[@annf3949]

now its somthing else i have to get i just went shopping

[@collettegay1432]

Love this. I’m going to g as be to try this when my machine gets fixed. Where did you get your tape dispenser? I tried a regular tape dispenser but the tape wouldn’t fit.

[@verafernandes4913]

Brilliant, I like that the fabric is labeled so you know exactly which piece to use. I enjoy watching your videos and your calm explaination.

[@paulahiatt9102]

Ordered the kit….have to say I was disappointed that batting was not included so I still had to “ru around” and source materials 😏

[@palmcoast35]

Thank you for taking upon this project.

[@theresaturnbach610]

Darn. Kits are sold out till after labor day !

[@PowerToolsWithThread]

You've got to be quick around this bunch! lol Yes, more kits to come.

[@hollyhicks3669]

Thank you so much for your awesome tutorial!

[@allisondyer6246]

Did you use SF 101 on your pieces of fabric before embroidering them?

[@PowerToolsWithThread]

I did not. The two layers of the fibrous WSS works fine and I didn't notice any significant puckering. If you notice any, you certainly can use the SF101 - especially on the head with the fill in the cheeks.

[@sallycrawford7205]

Just ordered the design! I have several teachers in my family and I think everyone of them will love to have this adorable scarecrow! Thanks so much for sharing this tutorial and Designs by JuJu scarecrow! 💕

[@sherrymaylee8755]

What size is your scarecrow? My hoops are Husqvarna & are narrower 200mm width. = 7.874 I just checked for the kits 9/3/23 & they are sold out

[@PowerToolsWithThread]

My scarecrow is the 8x12. You should be able to make the 5x7 size. There will be more kits after Labor Day. You've got to be quick around this bunch! lol

[@leahg4596]

Afraid if hang on an outside door the stabilizer will get stiff from dampness even with a storm door for protection. Think I will use two sheets of light weight regular stabilizer and just use a marker close to fabric color to cover up any stabilizer that may be showing once trimmed.

[@PowerToolsWithThread]

That is always an option you can take.

[@kathythompson8057]

If you are using a WSS and plan to hang the scarecrow outside…..how will it stand the weather??? Will it get gummy and wrinkled if it gets wet???

[@PowerToolsWithThread]

HA! I live in South Texas. It hasn't rained here in 10 years. lol

[@sharonsienaski6919]

What is the exact name of the batting from Loft? Thank you!

[@PowerToolsWithThread]

The shop is Loft Supply and they have many batting choices. I prefer the 100% cotton.

[@judithlittle511]

I have the magnetic hoop but I don’t use it much. It keeps biting my fingers.

[@PowerToolsWithThread]

Try the method I showed in this video to use the corrugated plastic to hoop. No more bit fingers!

[@beckyblackburn2753]

Lmk if they rekit the kit.

[@donnacamp5663]

ok I watched the video about 5 times my fabric is cut I have my batting and Stabilizer my buttons and raffia I am ready to start I am so scared but going to do it lol

[@lauraruthruff4741]

This is so stinking cute!! Excellent tutorial as always with all the fabulous tips.... I know that rafia would've had me saying some 4 letter words. 😂

[@veronicabenavidez1833]

OMG!!! That scarecrow is too adorable. Thank you for showing it. I would not have realized how cute it is in just the picture.

[@jewelsoren7076]

He' so cute, I want one. oh well. Great job Becky. Thank you for sharing.

[@gaylenewilkey9739]

thank you Becky. I am a newbie embroidery machine users and learnt some new things. Once again thank you.

[@suelynnwong7996]

Learn so much from your videos. Your a great teacher and fun to watch. Love o see how you fix things when something goes wrong. Great insight..

[@janiehern3086]

Thanks for all the great tips. I learn something new every time I watch your videos.

[@cindysullivan1540]

You are such an awesome teacher! Happy Fall! Closer to the SewNSail cruise!!

[@ettakaynickel6148]

Thank you, Becky.

[@pamelatoney6430]

Where can I get the tape dispenser you have for the 3M tape???

[@PowerToolsWithThread]

That tape dispenser is a Kimberbell exclusive. I don’t think they have that color anymore, since it was included in a previous Bella box.

[@pamelatoney6430]

Thank you so much Becky, I'll see what they have as I haven't had luck finding one wide enough for the 3M tape!@@PowerToolsWithThread

[@donnacamp5663]

love the way you change you threads it so much easier the way you do it thank you

[@suemooney7710]

Oh, oh, oh. Just when I didn’t believe cuter would come along - it has! Thank you , Becky.

[@scottydog6539]

Love this video Becky. It is so informative. Thank you so very much.

[@dr7418]

Becky, what a cute project. I ordered the pattern and kit but want to start making it tomorrow morning with fabric scraps I already have. Thanks for your tips and tricks.

[@katieemmart6566]

This Scarecrow is so stinkin' cute. Looks fairly easy to do with your great instructions.

[@peggywilliams5206]

Thank you for all the great tips! I appreciate how detailed your videos are. This may not be the first project I complete after getting my newly purchased pre-loved machine from the shop, but I will definitely make this scarecrow.

[@pauletteweaver7049]

Love the tip for cutting the buttonhole. I have cut through a couple in my life time. Lol

[@lindataylor4931]

What is the name of the place where you buy your batting?

[@donnam.j.kinsey2682]

I love your Scarecrow video. Are you going to make a video for the new Juju Santa or Elf?

[@PowerToolsWithThread]

No sorry, I don't have either of those in the queue to make videos for. The concept for them is the same as the scarecrow.

[@donnam.j.kinsey2682]

I know the concept is the same. I just really enjoy your presentation style and the tips you share that are not in the instructions. Wishing you lots of success with your You-tube channel and your business. Kindest regards, Donna MJ Kinsey, Kinsey Quilts, Weatherford, TX

[@lidabard2121]

Thank you!

[@margienell4401]

Oh course I bought this cutie patootie with your link!🎃

[@annf3949]

just got it i love designs by juju i have so many designs trying to sort them all

[@terryvlademar9001]

Thank you for the tutorial!You are amazing teacher!

[@carolswinconos1455]

This is so stinking cute! Thanks for the detailed video on how to make it. I realize it will depend on the size made, but approximately how many yards of the Wash & Gone stabilizer is did you use? It looks like you used an 8x10 hoop?

[@PowerToolsWithThread]

There are 3 yards in that single pack from Walmart and I needed 1.5 packages.

[@audreystaggs1362]

Scarecrow is so stinking cute!!! Another project to add to my to make list. THANKS for showing...especially the sewing of the buttons.

[@PowerToolsWithThread]

You are so welcome!

[@allisonholloway833]

Becky does your DIME monster hoop ride smoothly on you Luminaire? I just got a Luminaire 3 and where the embroidery arm meets the machine there is a slight raise which makes my hoop go clunk.

[@KatBen2-uy3tw]

It works well on the brother dream machine..

[@melodyb1287]

I did order the kit from Two Chicks fabric but they are out of the shirt fabric and are substituting another fabric. I am ok with that but would really like to find the plaid fabric you have. Do you know what brand it is?

[@PowerToolsWithThread]

I'm sorry but I don't. Two Chicks chose the fabric for me while I was making the video so it wasn't something I cut from a bolt. They are very good with fabric selection so I'm sure their substitutions will be just as cute!

[@johnhughes4100]

That is so cute. Thank you for this excellent tutorial. ❤❤

[@Mawmawjade53]

Thank you so much for this video 🙂

[@elainekelley6358]

The Scarecrow is so cute. Thanks for all the tips Becky.

[@angelamcgovern1525]

Gorgeous design. How do u manage to get your stabiliser so taught in the dime 9.5x14 hoop, i fine mine not that tight

[@PowerToolsWithThread]

Try the trick, using the corrugated plastic to load the stabilizer like I showed him the video.

[@guil01234]

Way cute!!!! Gonna order this weekend!!!!

[@brendaoberle2001]

Such a cute project!! Adorable.

[@annf3949]

thanks thats an idea for the folders

[@mendyelliott9495]

I absolutely love him! ❤

[@pattihamelstitches3303]

Becky, I am curious as to why you did not use the button stitch? I know that machine has one.

[@PowerToolsWithThread]

Old habits! Plus, not everyone has that stitch so I like to do a demo using the old fashioned method for a wide audience to help everyone possible.

[@jennystrahley927]

Becky, this was so helpful to see "how to" for this beginning embroider! I think I can actually do these projects with my new Brother PE800! Thanks for taking the time to demonstrate and give tips.

[@PowerToolsWithThread]

You are so welcome and Yes! You certainly can do this on your PE800! Go for it!

[@jennystrahley927]

@@PowerToolsWithThread I will, I need to venture out more with my embroidering projects. Right now I'm only making embroidery labels for my finished quilts, but I will keep trying new things and these designs by juju are so cute.

[@scottydog6539]

That scarecrow is adorable.

[@kathyandrew8465]

Very cute! I can't wait to make it.

Can we use Kimberbell or OESD water soluble stabilizer?

[@PowerToolsWithThread]

You can use any fibrous water soluble stabilizer.
