Babylock Solaris Vision Journey- large embroidered patch (applique) to save my sweatshirt
I had to get something embroidered for a friend and wasn't sure what stsbilizer to use. I went to a professional rmbroidery store, and the owner said she uses medium weight cut away for everything she embroiders for her cudtomers. It is a good stable foundation for the stitches, and anything you can't trim close to the stitches will devolve in the 1st washing
Thanks. That's good to know. I'll put that on my list to try for next time. I like using the light weight no show mesh on the back with tear away because it lays flat on the back instead of being stiff and/or showing through, but I'll try all different ways. I really like using water soluable stabilizer on top, especially with anything woven like cotton or knit. It just makes the embroidery stand out. The stitching doesn't sink into the fabric. I've never been sorry using it, and it just disappears if any is left on top and I dab it with water and watch it disappear. Thank you!
Will you have to put the tape on the right side again? Thank you so much for this learning experience!
@lindaraines474 yes, I did end up putting paper tape on the right. If it looks like it will be close, I just do it.
I watch you to the very end of all your journey. I don’t usually comment, but I give you a like and I am subscribed. Thank you for your time and all you are learning.
Awesome! Thank you! It's great to share our learning.
Where did you get the embroidery design for this jacket?
Hi, it's inside the Babylock Solaris 3/ Vision machine.
We have a paid collaboration offer for you. Please provide your email so we can discuss the details.
That design is super cute!
I agree! It's adorable!
Can I ask you what hoop sizes are your favorite? I’m debating the Dime 10x10 or the Dime 8x12.
I have the Dime 10 5/8 x 16...Which is good for big projects and edge to edge quilting larger quilts. I also have 9.5"x9.5" that I use for t- shirts and I used it to do the to edge quilting when I quilted that small piece of fabric for my bag class. There's a video out there about that project. But, I wish I had a 5x7 for smaller t shirts for kids. It's easier to maneuver the hoop around the small t-shirt. I guess it depends on what you will do. To me, it seems good to have a small, medium, and large if you can afford it... or just purchase in time.
It has has been helpful showing the Edge to Edge quilting.
I'll be doing another one soon. 😊
I love the eagle!
I love it too! It took me so long to do. I think I'll keep that one for myself. 😊
I’ll have to look for those designs. They stitched out beautifully.
Just found your channel while looking for jackets embroidery. Just join.
Great. Welcome!
I will be getting my Solaris Friday. Am so excited. But am more excited to find you and your videos. They will be a great help as I learn her functions. Hugs!
I'm SO excited for you. I love my solaris. Never thought I'd ever get one. It's been wonderful to play with and learn. The ideas are never ending.
Very informative. I did a table topper last night edge to edge going through same process. It turned at great! Thanks for sharing
Thanks for sharing your process. It would be nice to see your completed project. Enjoy your beautiful machine!
Promo>SM
I was wondering about the hoop you’re using. I’ve used Dime hoops but that one looks great. Do you think it’s worth the expense or would the Dime be good too?
This hoop worked good for this project. I used it because I had it, but the dime would work too.
Can you use #5 yarn?
The instruction manual recommends 4. If it doesn't flow through the couching foot easily, that's that's a sign, too.
Thanks for sharing. I’m still learning my machine.
That was a good video. 🥰 Thank you!
Thank you!! I'll keep working. 😊
Interesting! I'm tempted to try this - thanks
Hurray! I'm glad it's helping. That's my goal: learn and share. Let me know if you try it.
Love your videos. Encourage me to try. Would love to see video on how you hoop all together if it is big size quilt
I'm going through the hooping process to quilt this thing 20 times in total. Are you talking about the quilt sandwich?
Yes
@rekhadesai8399 Hi! I followed this lady on UA-cam for my first quilt sandwich. Hope it helps. ua-cam.com/video/nUupGncrSQ8/v-deo.htmlsi=BCKvomMiX2xhEQAL
❤
I lower my speed when doingE2E and it helps a lot with thread breaks.
Thanks! I changed my needle and tension, and it helped, but slow speed is good because we are also watching the fabric to make sure it doesn't fall into the hoop. Later, I examined the needle. It was bent. Good thing I changed it. It was pretty new. I don't know if I like Chrome needles. That one didn't last that long.
Looking forward to trying this.
It's fun! More fun than I thought!
Really enjoyed your video Sandi. Definitely liked your design on the t-shirt. ❤
Really looking forward to watching you quilt. This is something I’m hoping to eventually do. ❤
You will!! It was so fun quilting last night. 😊
You are doing super with your new machine. I am really looking forward to seeing your finished quilt. I only got my new large machine at Christmas but unfortunately, I’ve had to stop using my machine for the time being as I’ve got a frozen shoulder and it’s affecting my whole right arm down to my fingers. So thoroughly enjoying watching your videos. ❤
Oh no! I'm so sorry that happened to you. I had that happen to me in both shoulders for a couple of months, like 15 years ago. And it's amazing how it was so intense and scary and then disappeared and never came back again (knocking wood). Resting it helped. You can study your machine while waiting. Feel better soon.
Thanks Sandi. Yes, it’s definitely very painful. I got a couple of good books from America as we can’t get them in Scotland. Looking at them now and again. Hoping it won’t last too long but will depend on how the physio goes.
I love the DIME monster hoop!
I've been mostly using the babylock regular hoops. I've used a 9 5x9.5 dime hoop before for smaller projects. I used the babylock 10x10 magnetic hoop to do a border. It seemed very small, even for a border project. It was super expensive. This is my second time using the big dime hoop to quilt. The one short video I made is my first time. It should be great from what EVERYONE says.
Thank you so much for sharing your experience with us I really appreciate it it was very helpful to me
I'm very glad it helped. 😊
Sandy, keep up your "journey", fascinating and educational.
Thank you!
Sandy, how do you "pull" the end of the large yarn through to the back?
Hi! At first, I did what the manual shared... use an awl to poke a hole first, then thread a large eyed needle with the yarn using a needle threader and poke the needle in the hole made by the awl, and use the needle to pull the yarn to the back. But I've found that I can skip the awl step. I've been using the needle threader on a large eyed needle and just poke it (without using the awl) to the back to bring the yarn through. It seems to be easier to me. It may depend on the fabric. If it's really dense like denim one might need the awl....or really any pointy tool... if you don't have an awl. You can try a test area first if you're not sure.
Love your color choices in this embroidery.
Thank you
Have you watched any Gloria Horn or Melinda Bigley You Tube Channels. Each knows a lot about the Solaris.
Yes, I love watching them too when I can.
Turned out nice
Thank you..
Looks great!
It”s a little easier to thread the needle and the couching foot before placing the fabric and hoop on the machine.
Thank you so much for the helpful hint. I will try to make a note to try it next time. I want to try 2 more colors and then finally put on the top of my sweatshirt.
Beautiful work
Thank you!
I have a babylock Flare. I am just getting started
I just love babylock. Enjoy!
Yes please! I'd love to know where you found this design, the style is gorgeous!
Hi! Thank you! I out a link to the design in the description. I hope you can see it. 😊
Hello Sandra, I really enjoyed watching your video. I just purchased a JANOME Memory Craft 500E only because that’s the brand of sewing machine I have. I’m been searching for embroidery videos to learn about the process of embroidering and I came across your video. I love how your design came out and the color choice of the lettering is perfect. Looking forward to your next video.😊
Oh congratulations on your new machine! Janome is a great machine. I have a really old one my sister gave me. I'm so excited for you! I'm glad you enjoyed the video.
I just washed this sweatshirt. The stitching did not change. I'm going to stick to a no-show mesh and floating tear away on the bottom and wash away on top. I still have to try stabilizer on top that heats away, but it's on my list.
good job but I think I would use a cutaway stabilizer as I noticed some puckering with the mesh stabilizer. I know this was a sample try out and appreciate you sharing your experience using the couching foot/embroidery design
Ok thanks. I usually float tear away behind the piece. I think I'm going to try 2 more times. I'll try different stabilizers and compare all 3 at the end.
@@kofoedsandyyou're doing a great job and I appreciate you taking the time to show us how things are going for you, I make so many "wrong" decisions, your teaching helps me to avoid some of those wrong choices thanks again
I’ve just got a Brother Luminaire and just starting to learn also. So look forward to following along with you.
Congratulations!! It's going to be so much fun!!
Congratulations I have been embroidering for over 25 years or so now. Every time I embroider something I still have the excitement that I did on my very first one. So exciting.
Thank you both very much. Really starting to enjoy my machine. I’m from Scotland and couldn’t get any books here but I’ve managed to get two books from America to help but just love watching all your videos. So grateful to you. ❤☺️
@@catherine9708 and thank you for your kind comments. It's so great to know the videos are helping someone.
Where did you buy the book? I am in your same situation, I have a solaris 2 upgrated to the vision, the design and your colors are beautiful. Thanks for sharing
The book I shared in the video I bought off of ebay. There are people who sell the bound instruction books. There's 3 of them: 1 for Sewing, 1 for embroidery, and the 1 I had in the video which shows ALL the designs in the machine.
Oh and thank you for watching and your comment about the colors. 😊
How cute!
May I ask you what stabilizer did you use that did not cause puckering? I thank you in advance for any suggestions to reduce puckering.
I usually like to use water soluable on top and tear away on back.
Thank you! I will try that.
promo sm
Loved this , Sandy!!
I'm so glad you enjoyed it! 😉
The design is looking amazing. I’m really new to embroidery but hoping to do more once I get more experience with my machine. I like to sew and hoping to quilt also. ☺️
Oh, you sound so much like me when I got my machine during fall 2023. Now, I've started to do quilting. I did record some edge to edge border quilting, but my camera kept shutting off because I needed to delete some videos... not enough room. I hope to get enough subscribers to do longer videos live. Then, I think it's easier to share the techniques that take longer.
Just found your video tonight. I’ve just got the Brother Luminaire XP3 machine at Christmas which is a very similar machine to your own. So I’m just learning to use it too. Really looking forward to watching your videos. Thank you for sharing. ❤
Oh, I'm so happy to hear from someone. I'm somewhat new to UA-cam videoing. I record on my phone right now until I see if this amounts to anything. According to my research, I need 50 subscribers before I can do lives, which will help with doing some of the longer videos. Anyway, time will tell if I get there. I might do an intro video and share that information to see if I can increase my subscribers to 50 right away and see if I can do lives from there.
And, I'm so excited for you! I love my machine. I'm sure you will love yours.
Thank you for the delightful instructions on your design, especially what kind and how to use the stabilizer. Only problem, the camera is just showing a 1/4 of video on screen..
Thank you for your feedback. Oh... was that on all three parts or just the last one? I will work on it.
Yay! I think I got it figured out. I'll try again on a new video. There's no way to change these recordings from my research. Thank you so much for your feedback.
Enjoyed your 3 videos. Hope you will continue making them. I am now interested to see if my machine has the app you spoke about.❤☺️
