      How do I download from Embrillance Express to my USB? Can you give me step by step instructions?

  • @sicubberley
    @sicubberley 3 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    Some info on appliqué. In my machine the drop down is - “Appliqué Position” is the first stitch for you to place the fabric. “Appliqué Material” is the tack down stitch for the fabric. After which you would trim the fabric. “Appliqué” is the final satin stitch around the appliqué. Hope that helps.

      Thank you! I figure it might help others feel less intimidated to see another novice try / use something. What might come easy to some is harder for others. If I'm running into problems or don't understand, I'm probably not alone right?

    I found you after my recent PE800 machine purchase. (I have an original Disney machine from 2000 :) )I have been extensively researching a software to work with my new machine. I had several people and websites strongly suggest Brother software. I couldn't find information, tutorials, etc. to explain what each program did. I even contacted Brother support. They sent me a few links but basically nothing is out there. I decided to try the Embrilliance Express because that's what you used. I was still trying to decide and I saw that you had upgraded. I watched the video and my decision is FINALLY made!!! I don't need to spend thousands of dollars to get everything I need!!! Thank you!!! Thank you!!!! Keep updating us!!!!

    I love my embrilliance essentials as well. I love that embrilliance has tiers so that people on a tighter budget can approach and add slowly as they become more proficient. There is a lot that I haven't explored yet.

    I just ordered embrilliance stitch artist because I really think that the devs hit the nail on the head with making a user friendly package, v intuitive, if you make more videos on using stitch artist up to lv 3 would be great. I basically want it to reproduce my paintings repeatedly, for me, I think you can really achieve an almost van gogh style when you have so much control over stitch direction, pattern and texture, really amazing!

    @seaallen4980 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I enjoyed your video. I especially liked the point you made regarding not being interested in delving in the area of digitizing. I feel the same way at this time. There are so many levels to embroidery which I am learning and loving. At this point, I just want to explore it as much as possible. Thinking about learning how to digitize is overwhelming. However, it is not to say, I am not interested in Embrilliance. Currently, I have the free version and able to manipulate letters, words, names and small sayings. I appreciate that your video has shown that the paid version could give me more options.
    In regards to future topics, I would like to see how to embroider with different fabrics like leather, suede and velvet (great for Christmas gifts). I work on a lot of ITH projects and would like to use these fabrics for possible gifts.

    The instructions are good to print out ESPECIALLY when it’s a PROJECT, eg. a mug rug, or appliqué vs. just a regular design. I put mine in sheet protectors in a binder for easy access.

    Thank you Jen, I was looking a the artist stitch 1. I am glad i saw this. I think it will do what i need like adding to a pattern and sizing it. I have just bought a brother project runway it has a 4x4 hoop. I find that when i down load a embroidery pattern even though it says for 4x4 hoop it blocks some of them and says to large for hoop. Brother said they should fit and work as long as they are smaller than 30,000 stitches. Do you think the essentials would work for me?

    I'm a little late to this party 🥴 but I had also researched Embrilliance. I do have the free version. What I didn't like about all the tiers was that you had to pay for each tier. You couldn't upgrade from tier to tier. I talked to an Embrilliance sales person because I was confused. I wanted the level you purchased but I really wanted the knock down feature for towels but I would have to purchase both tiers which seems odd. Maybe it has changed by now 🤷‍♀.

    • @SewingReport
      @SewingReport  ปีที่แล้ว

      I only have and need Essentials, but Enthusiast is the version that has Knockdown stitches. From what it looks like, Essentials and Enthusiast are two very different products with no overlap in the features, so that's why there's no upgrade option and you would need to get both. The Stitch Artist embroidery design software product does have 3 levels, with multiple options to upgrade. Embrilliance products are more a la carte to only pay for the features you actually want, instead of paying a massive price to get all of the features, even if you only want a select few.

    Hi Jen, Thank you for the recent Skitch review.
    I've been searching for info on Digitizing an image for my Ellegante (Babylock).
    Years ago my local store was promoting to me their "approved" vendor digitizing product (which was out of my $ range.)
    Listening to this video, at about 3:19 you mention Inkscape/Inkster and Embrillance. If I use either of those to Create the design, is the free version of Embrillance able to digitize it for me?
    I'm needing pes/dst file(s)
    Ive always been intrigued by the idea of Digitizing just haven't had a chance to explore it.
