I understand you use software to combine the designs but do you slightly overlap the designs? Or just butt them up to each other?
This is what I do: I open one design only (this time is the end basket), select the Circle from the Auto Repeat function and the software overlaps the designs. This time there was a round space left in the middle, so I chose the second design and placed it in the middle. If you would like to have more info, send me a PM. Hugs, Lidia
No, that makes perfect sense to me. Actually I forgot about using the auto repeat. Great idea. My new Dream Machine has so many features that are new to me. I am still learning and getting accustomed to. Thanks, Susan
Stunning. You do such beautiful work with Sue's designs. Hugs Shirley
another great & creative way to use your designs - wonderful LACE.
Thank you, Shirlene :) I agree with you, Sue's lace is wonderful.
Hugs, Lidia
Absolutely stunning...love both. I was busy stitching the hearts and I missed this post. Wish I can stitch like you. Hugs ...Shyam.
Thank you, Shyam. It's not difficult to stitch like me, you just need an embroidery software and a large hoop... and an embroidery machine of course.... :)
Hugs, Lidia
Lovely! I want to make one. Do you rinse out before you stitch the parts together?
There is no need for me to hand or machine-stitch all the parts together, Christine. I combine the parts in my software and I stitch the whole doily out in one hooping. The complete doily measures 199x212mm (7.84x8.33") and I stitch it out in my 200x260mm hoop (8x10"
Then I rinse it and let the doily dry. When dry, the doily is useable.
Hugs, Lidia
Absolutely stunning! These doilies you have been making by combining designs are gorgeous. Wish I had even a tiny bit of your talent. Very well done.
Thank you for your comment. I'm using a software for combining the designs. Once you know how the software works, then it's easy to do it.
Hugs, Lidia
Just stunning Lidia. I love Sue Box designs, she is a fabulous digitiser. Love Chris
Absolutely beautiful Lidia! Such a great job combining these designs :) these doilies must be a lot of work as they have so many stitches.....but worth it I would say :)
I must add that Sue's designs are so beautiful :)
And you do such a great job using them!
Thank you, Fatima. I have used my software to combine the designs and it was a matter of minutes. This doily has a lot of stitches but in ONE colour only, I was free to attend to other things while my machine was stitching, I only had to replace the bobbin when the machine stopped. I had much more work to do when I have stitched out designs with 48 colour changes.
Hugs, Lidia
