Welcome to lots of fun cuties and even greater advice!
1572Hello wecome to our group ! You will be addicted to our site ! Lots of info you can find, and lots of people always around to help you. Greetings Linda. Belgium
146661Chris here is another idea for you to try out
use simple red/black work to create a simple design. this is where just one color is used to outline items, sew out onto plain white fabric and then use cheap wax crayons to add color, sandwich the design between kitchen paper and iron it.
the wax is absorbed by the kitchen paper and the color is left behind.
this idea is great for a childs card as they can color the picture in themselves.but look equally good on flower outlined ones as well
there are some wonderful Christmas cards in cuties that i use every year and you can find examples in the projects section using the above method
14995we are glad to have welcome to our cute family! you will have a wonderful time with your new machine.;) lots of great info here hugs from Canada Loralye

74033515626Ok now for the answer to your next Q
if you purchase membership to any group then ALL the designs are free to download and use for a stated amount of time.
you do not need to pay a fee for membership to cuties where the designs are created by other members.
your machine will do photo stitch with no problem as it is simply a way of sewing out a design like X stitch is and yes you can get X stitch designs for the embroidery machine.
If you start looking and downloading the free designs now you wil be ready for when the machine arrives. Be sure to check out those little gift bags and the Christmas stockings that small gifts can be placed in. little tags can be sewn out to add to gifts and of course those wonderful embroidered cards that are such a joy to receive.
Don't get me started on ideas.or i will be here all day.

14995first off welcome to the world of fun on cuties.
I think the best thing you could consider purchase
is a product called "sewwhatpro"
this is easy to use and has its own group to help you with any problems With it you can change sizes add bits and remove bits add words in your own font as long as it is on the computer and alter the point, Use wingdings and wingbats,spilt stitches so that you can change the color and a whole host of other things,
for card making it is a great product that does not cost the earth and you get free upgrades.
please take the time to try out the free easy to use full product for i think its thirty day and you can save all things to file so even in the event you do not want it (and i would be amazed if you didn't ) then you still have the designs you have created during its usage.
I think there would be many more that would recommend this product.

7199Welcome, sweetie!! I think we have several card crafter here. They will be a great deal of help for you and others that have your machine will also help. We refer you our selves as "Cuties". I don't know who came up with it , but it stuck. Before you download any designs or buy any designs, make sure you know your format for your machine. I am sure someone will know if your dealer did not tell you.
85867Welcome, I am glad that you are here. As to your question: I signed up here just now and wondering what the membership is about? Does buying six months give me access to download any image I want with out paying for it. Or do you get a discount if you sign up. How does that work?
Signing up gets you the free design of the day plus all of the free designs in the area "Designs By Cuties" which you can click on at the top of the page. Buying six months membership gets what I have already listed, plus EVERY design on the site. (not shouting with the caps, just aren't able to underline). When you have paid for your membership, just click on any design under the Designs category and then select your format - do not put the design in your cart. Putting the design in your cart is for purchasing designs À la carte.
We welcome new members and encourage you to ask any questions you can think of. We were once new to this craft and come here for the camaraderie and fellowship and to help others who enjoy sharing the same pastime that we love.

jrob Thank you for the info and the welcome. I am most definetly gonna do the 6 month membership. That is an awesome deal! Ty for the info.
When looking at the designs is there a search feature? So say if I want to look for trains I would type that in and it would bring me to all trains? Instead of searching one by one?
158553Thank you for the welcomes:)
I hope to hear more about the membership and how it works.
