Absolutely beautiful. Sent from Windows Mail I just added my photos to Georgia From O hio. The quilt is machine embroidery appliqué.I used Anita Good Designs from her Butterflies and Bees and some other to fill in to make a 35 block quilt. I also did the longarm quilting. I have donated this quilt to the Littleton First Presbyterian Church to raise funds for a well deserved charity that the committee selects each year...GA FROM OH

Re: Acufil webinar
Pam Davison
Here is the response I got back from Janome:
Sent from Windows Mail I just sent Janome Support asking them to keep the webinars coming and to update the webinar with showing how to mark the fabric and how to do the first re-hooping. I figure the most they can tell me is no. Sent from Windows Mail What I did was use basting spray and did the sew in the middle lines then I started using th acufil to do the designs.

I would think things would be better if you found the exact center and worked out on each side from there.
Has anyone else have any comments?
Thanks,

Embroidered Toilet Paper
Tracy
I added some photos as examples of some of what I've done. It is very easy to do this and people love it! The sockmonkeys/towels were for a woman at work who wanted a set for each of her kids and one for herself. The Eagle Scout is a huge favorite and I do them for all the Eagles in our scouting district when they wearn the award. These are for looking at - but in a pinch if there's no other tp.... I recommend they keep the outer layer around the roll and it can be wrapped onto another roll after a trip to the store. LOL Tracy in Nashville, TN

Re: Redwork on MC 12000 with Cotona
blue_lak <no_reply@...>
Well clearly, the 12000 knows it's job way better than I do. I changed to the yellow bobbin holder and to a size 11 embroidery needle, and the small sample stitched almost flawlessly. After a minute adjustment to lessen the bobbin tension, it is now perfect. I mistakenly thought the cotton thread would need much less tension and a topstitch needle.

Re: Screen Resolution vs screen size
blue_lak <no_reply@...>
It depends on so many things. Hi res on a 17" monitor should be just fine if you're not running digitizing software. If you are, then a larger monitor with the same resolution may be fine too. IMHO what's more important for really accurate representation is being able to calibrate for color, i.e. that it has either the software or has manual controls to fine-tune adjusting contrast, color, saturation, etc. If the monitor has that, then it's going to have good resolution by default. Calibrating isn't difficult but so few people are aware except those working in the graphics field. Another thing to consider is what kind of lighting you have in the room where the computer will be used. Nonglare/matte screens don't give nearly as sharp a picture as gloss screens, just like photo paper.

As the looping is only occurring in one direction you might check for a
rough spot on your needle plate or on your bobbin case.

There is a washable tearaway that looks
something like paper.�� I get it from Carolyn at
anembroideredaffair.com������ This is a yahoo group and she sells
items at discount.�� Don't know the manufacturer but if you go on
her site you can find it, or contact her. �� If you don't want to
use this, try several layers of vilene on the bottom. Increase the
top a little at a time.�� As for the foot height I don't know what
that would do. I was playing with the yellow and reg bobbin holder
and it seemed that they are pre-set and that is the difference.��
As I am new with this machine would suggest you check with Jim or
someone else on that issue. �� Keep trying, Claire S.

Re: Embroidery on Toilet Paper
Tony Coley
You just never know. I did a roll for my heart Dr. 7-8 years ago. Since then I have done logo embroidery on staff scrub tops and lab coats. I did a human heart and his name on the 1st. roll. Minimum investment turned to a money maker4.

Sent: Monday, March 31, 2014 4:34 AM Subject: [janome12000] Re: Embroidery on Toilet Paper I enjoy embroidering on toilet paper---the designs are usually stitch out pretty quickly since they are not dense, and everyone who has gotten one of the rolls I’ve done has laughed out loud when they see it. It is just something different to do, and is usually a very unique gift—something no one else has given them. While I don’t stitch on TP often, it is still a fun thing to do.

Screen Resolution vs screen size
What is everyone's opinion as to what's more important for your embroidery computer: higher screen resolution or larger screen size? Coming from a desk top with a screen size larger than any of the laptops I've researched, I just have to wonder if I would miss the size or whether I would notice lower screen resolution more. To get both would cost an arm and a leg.
