Mask Making

A friend wanted to see how I made the masks I was making, so here's a quick video showing how I've been doing them. To date, I've made over 150, free, to friends who needed them and some local nurses. NOTE that I misspoke saying the first stitch was 'half way'...it should say '1/3 of the way'...which leaves the center open. And here is the 'sheet' with the measurement details. Thank you Sarah M...

    Thank you, Dian. I use the touchpad buttons at the bottom of the keyboard instead of a "regular" mouse.

I appreciate your time and big ol' brain!

    Hello, I have the BMP8 six needle and need to know how you get to stitch all the colors first then finally the outline last? I’m also doing key fobs and there are 3 colors, the outline being the last but it’s doing one at a time….would take too long for me to pull out the hoop each time. Any advice?

    Wow Dian! You are a fountain of information on Word. I've been working with it since the beginning off and on, and before that Word Perfect DOS days, but never had to become an expert. As a programmer I've enjoyed the ribbons for their ease of use for touch as a casual user, but Word's audience of customers are so wide and varied, I can tell with you're in depth understanding and use of Word that would devalue the ribbon significantly.

      That little fluff is there to help keep bobbin thread lint from getting to the cutter. I cannot be removed, btw

      @@rjrubicon I know there is supposed to be a piece of black fuzzy in front of the blade be the 1st machine looks like like Don Kings eyebrows! I also see a lighter fuzzy along the top. I always look at it from the back to make sure it is really clean. Sometimes I use a toothbrush to clean that little fuzzy part to make it black again.

    Dian Chapman, After a few times with this situation, I just turned off the cutter completely. I no longer have any problems. If I want no-jump threads on the bottom, I bring thread to top of project, and cut it, after is makes a few stitches. Haven't had any problems lately.

    The quality of Viking machines has deteriorated. I do not trust the service department of my local Viking dealership. A friend of mine purchased an Epic 2 and it had to be sent back to Viking, they replaced it and the one they sent her was also defective; basically the machine had to be replaced three times! I changed brands to Brother and I could not be more pleased.

    I have a question. When you make multiple fobs in one hoop, generally the last stitch in a design is the one where you put the back piece of vinyl on. So how can you reorder the events and do all embroidery except that final stitch which should be last??
