Thanks for this! I was getting confused about how to design an in the hoop plushie of my own, but this video explains the whole process really well!!

[@captaineleni]

Thank you so much for this video! I've been using older digital embroidery software (Digitizer MBX and Easy Design for the Janome MC9000) but it does have similar tools to your software. I learnt a lot about editing my stitches from your video, and thanks for the reminder about making sure my patterns aren't too thin too! (I keep falling into that trap when doing hair or belt patterns)

[@dollphinwing]

Yes, even for this design I ended up making an opening too small and it was nearly impossible to turn right side out! Luckily we can always go back and adjust things. I'm glad you learned a lot! :D

Yes! I love this video so much. The design is so beautiful and you’re really interesting to listen too. Most videos skip one of the steps like the digitising parts. Or the plushie patterns are kinda ugly. But your moth patterns are very elegant 🥰 I’m buying my first embroidery machine in about 5 weeks and I would be super excited for this to be the first pattern I buy 💖

[@BlitheDream]

Ps. if you made an hour video about making ITH creations I would totally watch that ☺️

[@dollphinwing]

Thank you so much! So happy the video was helpful and interesting! I hope you enjoy making the moth with your new embroidery machine ^_^

[@cindyl3297]

Thank you for making this video! What embroidery machine are you using?

[@dollphinwing]

For these I used Brother PE-770 :)

Hi 👋🏼 I’m still a beginner with plushie making and I just want to make plushies for my son and our family and friends. Would Embrilliance Sketch Artist Level 1 be enough to do something like this? Thank you so much for the video. Super helpful and fun to watch! ☺️

[@dollphinwing]

Yes, level 1 covers all my needs when making my own embroidery files! I recently upgraded to level 2 for a couple of advanced options but it's not necessary when starting out.

Hello I hope you can help me. I have a Zeraora Plush and I want to copy it and make it bigger like a life size. The problem is I dont know how to do it. Can you help me?

[@dollphinwing]

You could scan or take a picture of your pattern so it's on your computer, then enlarge when you print it. This page shows how: cholyknight.com/2016/10/25/enlarging-reducing-pdf-plush-patterns/ If you don't have a printer there's the "slash and spread" method. You cut the pieces and spread them apart, then draw where the lines should go.

[@ShiroKemono]

@@dollphinwing thanks but I dont have a pattern it is just a plush do you have any idea to copy its pattern? I have my own idea it have sewwing mark and im gonna wrap it a plastic wrap, put a duck tape, mark it and cut it. For you is it gonna work??

[@djsiminoff]

I think it's pronounced "coffee" ... like, buy me a coffee!
