Boo, Boo’s lol I’m watching because I’m going to try this just got a 5x7 but hey, I’m going for it. Thanks for your tutorials and your time. Here goes, wish me luck. Making a quilted bench pillow.
Hi Becky! Thanks for this tutorial for Amelie Scott "Edge to Edge". I didn't print the designs out, I stitched them out on stabilizer. All sizes, all designs. This allowed me to audition the designs and mark where I needed to start while my piece is hooped in the Magna hoop. It saves me from doing the algebra! BTW, the quilt I did, it started as a queen size. I'm not a quilter, that was my first. It ended up as a lap quilt! Kudos to those real quilter queens. Thank you for not editing out the BOO-BOO'S, showing how to use the tools and making it all work out. Boo ghost turned out fabulously! You crack me up!
When I started this waaaay-back-when, I also stitched out my designs like they say to in the book. I just found the sticky paper so much easier to use. I'm so glad it worked out for you! I found that 52" by 52" wall hanging to be quite the experience too so I know now I could NEVER do a queen quilt or larger with this system. Good for you!
I also stitch out the designs on stabilizer and save them.
Thank you for the lesson AND a laugh or two...heaven knows we need it.
Thank-you so much for this! You explaing things in a way that I understand it! I guess a better way to say it, is that it makes sense! lol! I appreciate you so much for that!😘
Great tutorial love the troubleshooting on the embroidery great how you just seem to keep going no loosing your cool .The finished mini quilt looks great.makes me want to get an embroidery machine even more .😁🙋
Can't wait to give this a try. Ordered the monster hoop today. Thanks for sharing 💗
Becky ...your personality makes me smile. Don't ever change! Thx for teaching me so much 💜
Good job Becky, thank you!
I love doing edge to edge. It makes the quilt look pro without the cost.
Good job Becky!!!!
I am just getting into the edge to edge thing. Thank you for showing it. That helps a lot!
Becky thank you so much for your how to. I love that you left your boo boo in so we recognize that mistakes happen and not to freak out over it. I was wondering why you didn't turn it sideways and use a bigger design so there would be fewer hoopings. Love your videos. Gotta go now I have to sew something.
This is so awesome! You are an excellent instructor👏🏻👏🏻
They both look great. Your videos are so great you explain things awesome.
I did it. I figured out quilting on my embroidery machine with jujus patterns. I watched you time after time to learn it and made pillow shams for my bed. They are perfect. Oh I used the magnetic hoop too. Thanks Becky
You are hysterical!! Love this video and you!
Thank you for this wonderful video! It was very helpful and I’m going to try this tomorrow!
You make this look easy peasy!
Great video! Thank you!
I always learn something from you. And I have fun at the same time. Thank you Becky!
Wonderful video..thank you, you have given me the encouragement to try this technique...
Hello! I just found you and your channel. Thank you for this tutorial. I used her edge to edge technique on a large quilt using my own ideas. I thoroughly enjoyed your video and found myself laughing out loud at your scalpel appendix humor since I am an OR Nurse. Thank you so much. I learned somethings. You are adorable.
Thank you for your kind words. lol I used to work in medical admin in my military days so I too think of surgery right off the bat every time I see that monster. :-)
Just love seeing everything you do...even your boos!
My Baby Lock teacher told me not to worry about pulling bottom threads like with regular free motion quilting. I did learn a lot from you and love your sewing room!
Thank you so much for the tutorial. I have had the book for some time but not confident enough to try the quilting. Will give it a go now.
Great job thank for sharing & caring....💞
Just stumbled on this tutorial. What a kick it was to watch. I'd like you in my back pocket all the time. I have done 2 quilts with Amelie a couple of years ago with the monster hoops and loved it. But I am way out of practice and was without my machine for 3 months waiting for parts, but it's back and I needed a good swift kick to get started again. I've developed insecure complex..you know...scared to death of the machine...I know stupid...but thanks to you, i am invigorated and ready to head to the room and get started again. Thank you for such a great time just watching and listening. I'll be back that's for sure..
Good job, came out so cute,. Now I'll have to give it a try. BOO.
It looks so cute
Loving the info on embroidery/quilting vlog. Have been making key fobs this week ok embroidery machine. Was a really cute quilt pattern on the key fob! Who could resist that??
Please share the embroidery key FOB as to where I can get it?
Just discovered you on TH-cam. Excited!
You are hilarious. So cool,calm, collected. I told a quilting friend about your videos and too appreciates your knowledge. Just saying.
Great tutorial! I have a couple of the Edge to Edge stitch designs but only used a couple of them. I've never pulled the bobbin thread up and had wondered how to do it. Great information!
Thank you for this demo, I have the Edge to Edge quilting programs and LOVE Them and you are demonstrating the magnetic hoop which I’m considering purchasing so I’m almost convinced 😊🎉
This was a super video and very timely. I just received a Snap Hoop for my Brother Dreamweaver machine because I want to learn how to machine embroider my own quilts and save a little money. You show ALL the steps down to pushing the buttons and I feel confident enough now to attempt it!!! Just need to find Amelia Scott's "Edge to Edge" package. Thanks so much!!!!!
Love project and love the back.
Oh...I could hug you...I have a Brother machine similar to your machine....never knew how to use the 'SNOW MAN'...I am over the moon..thank you soooo much. I live in New Zealand..THANK YOU LOVE WATCHING YOUR VIDS
Once I figured that feature out, it was like Christmas! Enjoy!
Love this video tutorial. You have a very nice way about you and are so down to earth! Thank you for all the tips and pointers, even when there was a SNAFU (career military wife here). At least it didn't turn out FUBAR! I'm new to embroidery and now I'm trying to incorporate using my embroidery machine and start quilting my own projects instead of taking them to be long armed. I have a Babylock Solaris (loving it) and a Bernina 770QE that I do my sewing/quilting on. I will look for more of your videos. I truly appreciate your sense of humor and ability to overcome all events. Blessings to you! ♥
Thanks for your kind words! One of my commanders at one time was also a lay minister and he use the term SNAFU all the time. I asked him, "Do you know what that stands for?" He was baffled and I explained it. He was floored! He said, "Well, I never say THAT again! " lol
You need to give Amelie Scott's Edge 2 Edge quilting a try in your Solaris. She has recently come out with a pack of jumbo designs just for that large hoop. You'll be able to quilt your projects that way very easily. I've got several videos on using the E2E system. Anything larger than a table runner, you might also consider investing in the Weightless Quilter from DIME. I have it permanently set up behind my machine to hold heavier projects. Thanks for watching and thanks for sticking with being a military spouse. It's a tough job and takes a strong soul to put up with it.
You are hilarious, Becky! Loved watching you correct that "Boo-Boo"! LOL Good job!
Anita Gooddesign has some great quilting designs.
Awesome!
Thank you so much.
Becky, love the way your Boo turned out. The exclamation point was scared out of the position by the ghost yelling Boo--LOL. I wish my Ellagante 2 had the same foot I use on my Coronet Longarm that is a cup and just slides over edges of the quilt without getting caught. I would have taken my foot off and the needle out to try and free it but I can see now how Designs in Machine Embroidery kit works super. On my next purchase list!!
What a great video again and thank you so much for showing us how to fix a boo boo, lol, many of us regulars sewers believe that you most wonderful teachers don’t have hiccups when embroidering or sewing . 🌺
If you know how to fix mistakes, it takes the fear out of projects.😅
I love your videos and you are so funny!!! You make me laugh.
Great video. Thanks for leaving in problems we all deal with and how you solved them.👏🥰
Thanks for watching!
Hi Becky, great tutorial! I use the Amelie Scott edge-to-edge all the time. I'd like to give you a couple of more hints. When you advance you stitch by one (1) to bring up the bobbin thread...after I bring it up, i minus a stitch to bring it back to stitch #1. Also, I turn off my End Trim so that I don't have the short threads on the back....when you turn off the End Trim the machine will move and give you a long end tail and then you hit the cutter button. And lastly, it's a good idea to do a column of designs and then work your way to the right...after they are all done, you turn your project around and do the "B" side...this way the bulk of the quilt is always to your left. You were okay as the Boo was a wall hanging, but if it had been a quilt it would be a lot to deal with. I love your videos and love how you showed how to overcome that stitching mess on the corner...I think I would have sat and cried! lol
Thank you SO much for all your tips! I tried the column thing as the instructions say and I don't know how but I ended up with diagonal patterns. It was a total mess. Maybe I should have marked the true vertical lines to keep me straight. My failure with that is the reason I decided to go ahead and get a longarm for anything larger than a wall hanging or table runner. But your thoughts to turn off Trim Tails is brilliant. I'll have to check the manual to see how to do that. I just love our little community. Together, we are so helpful and smart! Thanks again!
Thank you Ann for your tips. I have been searching for what to do with the ending thread. I knew there must have been a way to eliminate the threads on the back.
@@karenschwieger5340 Thanks Karen...when you turn off the machine and turn it back on, you do have to remember to turn off the End Trim each time...I usually forget on the first one! lol Ann Nora
@@annnoraconte6112 Thanks for that tip also- - I will try to remember. LOL.
What GREAT tips, Ann Nora! I am a beginner in this and can use all of the extra hints out there. I too love the community that is here! So helpful!
Sure wish you would do a tutorial on the Ball jar barbecue apron.....it was so adorable! I’m thinking about buying an embroidery machine, you have so inspired me! Thank you for your delightful channel! I always learn from you!
Ok! That will be my next embroidery tutorial!
Power Tools with Thread thank you, thank you, thank you 💕💕💕💕
Looks fabulous I want an embroidery machine lol
Hi Becky, just coming back to this as my Dime hoop arrived. Ran out of WSS so did without by stopping machine and skipping foward through the pattern until the foot was back on my panel, then carried on with design. Thanks for recommending the hoops and the designs.
Loved your video, Boo-Boos and all .. :-) ... I am just learning Edge to Edge - Thanks for posting!
You are so welcome!
I may have to get a Brother machine now, lol. Thanks for the fantastic info.
And me,
Did not know I missed one until I saw Becky playing,
now I desperately need one 😁
It should work on Baby Lock machines if you have one. Made by the same company & uses the PES format.
Light hearted fun! Thank you for everything.
Lol. Becky you crack me up. Ive had the same thing happen. Not fun
It turned out cute
Practice makes perfect.
So cute! ❤️Embrilliance, so easy to digitize and has every feature anyone could ever need. I’ll warn anyone who opts to use the free version, you’re going to be hooked, only one I’m missing is Alfa Tricks😄! Terrific video, thanks for sharing your amazing quilting skills!😘
Oh me too! I started with Embrilliance Essentials, then Thumbnailer, then Stitch Artist 1, and most recently Enthusiast. It's so awesome to only buy parts and pieces and pay for what you need when you need it. And those SALES! I simply cannot believe the fabulous product at that price point and it is still supported by the developer. So easy to use and such a great product!
Power Tools with Thread I know! I’ve the software purchased with my machine that’s pricier, and Embrillance puts it to shame. The developer isn’t afraid to offer a free download, because he knows we’re going to purchase. You’re so right, being able to add an upgrade is the bomb!
I so enjoyed this! You really remind me of Roseanne Barr (who I adore) you could be her much younger beautiful sister. :)
Ha! Thanks (I think) :-) I loved Roseanne's humor when I was younger and never missed her show back in the 90's. She certainly called it like she saw it so I guess she had a big influence on me.
Power Tools with Thread it was definitely meant as a compliment!
Thank you for the video. I love your attitude and your boo boo cracked me up. I think I will take mine less seriously 😂
Just ordered
LOL you are funny and honest.
Yeah you got it
the Pelon 541 is sold at Joanns on the bolt as well as in the package. Just got it with 40% off coupon!
That’s what I have Quattro , fixing to learn to quilt on it
I have her Amelia Scott designs as well. I Love it, the only thing that I need to get is the magnetic hoop. I understand what you are doing because Ive done it except I had to actually hoop it, with a regular hoop , talk about a pain . But other than that its a sweet system
Definitely, that magnetic hoop makes all the difference. I've used a regular hoop too and if you don't have the ability to nudge/tug the fabric exactly where you need it to be, then the pain factor can be high.
That is just adorable! I love it! I am so glad that you showed the problem that you were able to resolve. I have done a little bit of this using my Dream Machine that is similar to your machine. It will use the snowman sticker to line things up. I didn’t know it would align the pattern if it was not straight though. Wonder if mine does that? What happened to you was a big fear of mine. So much that I tried to tape my project around the edge and it created even more of an issue I think. My wall hanging is still not completed because I didn’t plan well on the placement of the design runs. Now my design runs way, way off the edge of the fabric of the project plus the extra fabric that I taped to it to allow for the pattern to sew out completely. I was wondering if I can use the + button and move the pattern forward until the design that is going to stitch is now ON the fabric again, not stitching where the design is off the fabric. I had no idea what in the world I was doing when I started this and just decided to jump in and do it and see what would happen. Well now I know that I need to plan better on where each of the stitch outs will happen rather than just “wing it”. Thanks so much. I learned a ton from this video. I love how you don’t panic! Me! I would have stopped the video and trashed the entire thing! UGH! I even have a set of those tools that you whipped out but have never used them yet. I think I will go work on that wall hanging and get it finished. I am going to remove all of the tape and try it without all of the mess of the tape. Hopefully the pressure foot won’t get caught, but if it does I know how to fix it and move on. I was doing the wall hanging as practice to get ready to do a lap-sized quilt. This was probably 6 months ago or more and the quilt is still waiting. Yes, I watched your other video that was recommended by DBJJ and that’s what gave me the initial confidence to even try it. And I even asked you questions and got some help. But I gave up when I realized that the design was going to stitch out way beyond my fabric and I just gave up. There was no way to hoop it that I could see. So I will try some of that interfacing and try to finish it. Now sure how I will cut it off where it gets stitched to the back of the project though. Oh I’ll use “wash away”. Will the sulky stuff that looks like Saran Wrap work? I’ll give that a try. Thanks so much Becky! HAPPY NEW YEAR! Keep the videos coming. I always learn something new, every single time!
Hi, Becky. You inspired me to buy the embroidery designs. Someone may have mentioned already but you can use Scan N Cut SDX to draw the PES files. I did mine on 12x12 cardstock to test and it was great. A in red and B in blue. I will draw the longer files on freezer paper cut to size and also have the advantage of reusable stick from the back of that. Right now I'm going to test on pot holders. Too wimpy to try more! Ha.
Intriguing! I may have to give that a try....now you've got me thinking. lol
@@PowerToolsWithThread If you didn't want to embroider, you could at least draw the design in an erasable marker on the quilt back for free motion, etc. I think the Scan N Cut really amplifies the possibilities with those files. Like if you don't have a big enough hoop .... ????? :)
It DOES look great!
Also got that hoop
Becky, notice when you put the A and B papers together, 10 minutes into the video, that the ends of the embroidery match up, but the tops and bottoms of the papers are about 1/4 of inch off. So if you line up the papers on your quilt, the edges will not meet. I am not sure why this happens, but I had a lot of trouble with it. So lining up the design ends, and not putting the papers in line, is very important. Just wanted to share this.
Becky, love this video. I watch Joy and Vivmom too! Small, but mighty community! My husband and I will be traveling to Texas this winter in our 38’ fifth wheel and would love any advice on places to visit and stay. We like both campgrounds and boon docking. We plan on trying to boon dock on the beach this year.
We mostly stay in RV resorts where the comforts are within reach, e.g. no boon docking/dry camping for us. It's just too hot here not to have both AC units running and we like concrete pads. Alsatian RV is close and that's nice: close to San Antonio but not so close you're in traffic. If we were RVing for the Houston show, we've stayed at South Houston RV Resort and it's very nice. There's a FB group called RV Quilters - they have tons of recommendations for all over the US. Wish I could be more helpful but Texas is so big and there are a gazillion RV camping stops.
I don't have an embroidery machine Becky but I enjoyed watching your demonstration. What would a day be when sewing if we didn't have a mistake aka boo boo. Lol
LOL. Just goes to show we can have oopsies no matter what kind of sewing we're doing. :) I appreciate you watching all the more since you don't have an embroidery machine!
Cooooollllll Cupcake idea
All of Amelie Scott designs come in three sizes including a 5"x7"
Love watching you be creative!!! It turned out sooo cute!!! What is the backing material? I love it!!
I'm sorry but I have no idea what the backing material is. It was part of a kit that came with the pattern on my retreat. It was a freebie from our hostess. Sorry I couldn't help. :|
Great video. Thank you. Would you be able to float your quilt instead of looping it? I hope I stated that correctly, I’m still learning 🤪
Hi Power Tools, I enjoy watching your videos and am curious what thread your using for this quilting. I don’t thing I’ve had the success I’m looking for with what I’m using. Thank you, Carol
What did you like better, Kimberbell Blue tiles or edge to edge here?
Hey Becky, This particular video has INSPIRED me to get back to my quilting/sewing/embroidery, THANKS😀. Could you tell me what fabric line your black fabric is from? M🍀
Oh I wish I could tell you the fabric line. It came as a kit so I have no idea. I'm so sorry!
Wow 👍👍👍Teresa Stacey 🇦🇺🇦🇺
Great tutorial! I’ve done a few edge to edge projects, and that magnetic hoop is invaluable, especially when doing a larger project. Becky, did you know if you hold down the start (green lit) button, it controls/slows down the stitching? That helps when you just want a few stitches at the beginning of your quilting project. I have the Quattro 3, and I’m still learning about all the capabilities it has.
Wow! I didn't know that. Thanks! I'll give it a try. 😊
I only have the Brother Dreammaker VM5100. I'm going to try this on my machine in the morning.
I did not know that either. I have a Brother Dream Machine and even after 5 years I am still learning about my machine too and I took a lot of classes. I went once a month for more than a year and we made a different project each month. You would think I would have learned it all but there is so much to these amazing machines that I’m not sure anyone can learn it all.
Wonderful video you explain so well. Do you have anymore on this edge to edge thank you
Thank you! Yes, I did this one. th-cam.com/video/EB3CAIhO8kA/w-d-xo.html
Adorable! I love the cupcake too! Where do I find that!?
You are a goof, lol. Great video!
I am new to quilting with my embroidery machine and really want to try it. What size needle do you use when you do this? Did you use the same thread in the bobbin as on the top? Did you adjust the tension of your bobbin so it does not pull tight like it normally does when you are embroidering? Nevermind - it looks like you can only do this with the sewing/embroidery combo. I have the 1700e which is embroidery only. Am I correct?
I use an old bed sheet for extra material instead of the Pellon. Just cut it up and reuse if needed.
Great idea!
I have a brother prs100 persona. Biggest hoop is 7 x 7 will this work?
Hi Becky! I just ordered the Edge to Edge software and your videos are wonderful!! Sooo helpful. What size Snap-Hoop are you using? It looks like an 8x12. Do you think a 7x12 snap-hoop would be too small? Thanks for your time and consideration.
If money were no option, I'd buy them all! lol But in reality, I recommend buying the largest hoop your machine can handle and mine is the 9.5" x 14". In my most recent video (Quilting With Your Embroidery Machine, Part 3, March 20) I show a trick to extend the edges of your project using painter's tape and strips of stabilizer to get a good hooping on a project that is too small for the larger hoop. You can always do a small project in a larger hoop but you don't want to be limited by hoop size on a larger project. Good luck!
Love this,I have trouble with a large quilt. Stitches skip and won't form a stitch .
Oh no! Try a different needle. I was having the exact same problem with my Brother machines until I switched to Organ needles. Now, everything is perfect. :)
Did you use a monster hoop on that hanging? I'm wondering if I need a smaller hoop to do smaller designs? In otherwords, do you tend to match size of hoop to the size of design? Or is it okay not to?
You should usually use the smallest hoop you have to make a design that will fit. This prevents wasting stabilizer and eliminates a lot of play and fabric jumping inside the hoop. My next smallest hoop after my 5x7 is a 9x14...which is bigger than needed for say an 8x8 design. But I don't have any other choice at the moment. I just make sure to keep it taught. I try to match my hoops as close as possible to the design.
Do you have batting in your design? I am assuming you do, top, batting, orange background and the WSS, is that correct?
I actually forgot to put batting on this one! lol I made this project at a retreat and completely forgot to add the batting. And I normally don't use WSS when I do this technique but I needed something to fully hoop the project as I neared the edge. There wasn't enough project to reach the hoop as I got closer to the sides.
Have you used the Durkee Hoops. You use a sticky stabilizer and lay fabric on top.
I have those for my 7 needle but not for my single needle machine. I do have sticky stabilizer I could load in the hoop, but the idea when making a quilt is not to have any stabilizer at all on the back when finished.
I am new to your site and also,have the Brother Quattro,6700D, also looking to learn how to do the edge to edge stippling! I am so happy to have watched your video! What size monster hoop did you use for this design in the video. Perfect Christmas gift! Do you only use one of those hoops or do you have and use several? What would you recommend?
I only have one of those hoops and if you're going to get one, due to their cost, I recommend getting the largest hoop your machine can accommodate. Mine is 9" x 14". Check your manual to see what size is the largest your machine can take. I linked to them below my video. Thanks!
Oh wow 😳 I have heard of the birds nest. I think some people would rather have appendix out.
What size hoop are you using?
Also wanted to ask if ur ever used pattern ease as a stabilizer?
I have not used Pattern Ease. Might have to give that a try. Thanks!
Hi Becky
Can I use freezer paper to print designs onto as we can’t get the target paper in the uk.
Received my book and can’t wait to try it out .
Sue In London
I think the book has you stitch out the designs on white scraps. Recommend interfacing them to stiffen them up.
Hey Becky what would use for the larger patterns?
You are limited by the largest hoop your machine can take. The new Luminaire and Solaris machines have ginormous hoops so those larger patterns will work in those larger hoops. Ideally, it would be cool to do two patterns at once, one on top of the other.
Becky what thread did u use in the bobbin? Love your videos!
Gina
From the Great State of Maine
I used a standard white bobbin thread. Thanks for watching!
Come out, come out wherever you are. Meeting my fix of your vlog...
Needing not meeting
Hi there. What would be the right size for the hoop? I am going to order one and I would like to order a good one
Check your manual. I'd get the largest size hoop your machine can take.
