Hi Sonia,
I have down loaded the angel and would be glad to make one for Brandi.I will use the address you gave us and not include my name. I hope this gives her a lot of hope. She will know a lot of people are praying for her at least.

An RAR file is a packed file. You have to empty its contents (using
WinRAR, I think); if you type in "RAR file" and get the internet to
search for it, there is quite some detail on the website.

Re: How do I make a magnet from an embroidery design?

Unless your design is specificly digitized to be a free standing lace
design, stitching it on WSS will result in you having just a wad of
thread after you soak it.

If it is a design that needs to be stitched on cloth you might want
to stitch it as a badge or patch and glue a magnet to the back. Marie
has badge blanks available for free in her files section of her yahoo
group

Hi All:

I have a little penguin design that I would like to stitch out and

do this? Should I use water-soluble stabilizer just like I would for
a FSL design? Or should I use tulle or tear-away stabilizer?

Re: Angel of Light-Free

Sonia,
Thank you so much for the beautiful design. I plan on having the Angel in the mail to Brandi tomorrow. This has so much meaning for my family. Our youngest DD has Crohn's Disease. We came very close to losing her when she was diagnosed at age 11. She is now 13 and her last check-up was better. Her weight is up, we are trying to wean her off of 1 medicine and reducing the dosage on another, so far so good. I will be praying for Brandi and her family.
Please keep us updated. I just cannot imagine the fear this family is facing. I hope all will send an Angel their way and they will feel the prayers sent up for them. I am thinking I will make several of them and send to the Children's Hospital my DD goes to, they would look beautiful in the Gastro Dept., the Clinic area we go to for checkups too. I don't think you realized the amazing impact this one beautiful design would have for Brandi, her family, all of us, and many many more people. Just imagine what nurses, doctors, and visitors to Brandi, and others just passing her room will see and feel at the sight of all the angels watching over her! My Thanks and Prayers to you too Sonia. Jodi

Warning - Found virus in a freebie embroidery file tonight

 

Hi everyone. I am sending this out to the groups for folks who are doing
machine embroidery. You probably need to make sure your anti-virus is up to date
and run it if it doesn't do it automatically.

I had two files on my computer that were zip files with embroidery designs in
them. I have had them on my computer for several months now and my anti-virus
never caught it. But tonight it did so it must have been something that was
added to a recent virus update.

The two files I had were:
twobirdsonbranch.zip
words_4_mothers_day_PES.zip

I dont know where they came from as I dont file my designs by designer. But
they would have been free files because that is the file in which I had them
located. Luckily I had not opened either zip file yet my whole system wasn't
infected. I am suspecting that whoever had the files on their site had a virus
they didnt know about when they uploaded them.

So just be sure to check your files and if you have those two, dont open
them. And be sure to update and re-run you anti-virus software.

Just didnt want anyone getting hit with them by opening the files.

Re: Angel of Light-Free & Request

Sonia,
I have stitched out your beautiful Angel and will get it in the mail
to Brandi tomorrow.
Now I have a request of you. I had identical triplet grand-daughters
born on Jan. 12th. They are doing fabulously well and will probably be
coming home in about a week, thanks to the care they have received from
the real live Angels in the NICU in Annapolis Md.
I stitched out several FSL angels for them before they were born and
their isolets are adorned with them.
I had decided that I am going to continue sending Angels to the NICU
so that every little one who passes through will have Angels looking
over them. I would like to have your permission to include your Angel
in future donations. She is so dainty and precious, I thing she will be
perfect for the tiny angels in the NICU.
Prayers are going out for Brandi and her family. And also for you for
being such kind and thoughtful friend to her.
Thank you so much for this lovely gift. Not only the angel but the
reminder to us all that we really are after all "our brothers keepers".
Have a blessed evening, MaryJo

Re: Angel of Light-Free QUESTION

Cyndi Jannello
 

I did one for Brandi in varigated tones of darker pink and it is beautiful.
Will go out in the mail first thing Monday.

May I use the design to stitch Angels to be sold at our Church bazaar in the fall?

The Angel is a beautiful design, Thanks Sonia !

Re: software

carolprice2000
 

Q.
I am looking for a simple software that will size and change density
I use pe-design for my Esante but it will not let me do anything with
larger patterns for my Tajima. I am limited to my smaller hoops I
would like to do some lettering but can not go larger than 5x7 with pe-
design. I am just trying to get started here and have a very limited
supply of money. I have no plans at this time to start digitizing I
just want to sew.

Thanks
Pat


A.

Pat what version of Pe-design are you using? I think only version 1
and maybe 2 was limited to the 5x7 hoop.

To change the hoop size, go to options --> design page properties.

If your software is restricted to the hoop size, and you need your
design in a DST format, type in your text, don't worry about the hoop
size and do a FILE --> Export and choose DST.

To resize, will depend on the version you are using. To resize in
versions 1-5 you will need to do a sew --> stitch to block and then be
able to resize and keep the density. In version 6-7 you can press and
hold the CTRL key as you resize and keep the density.
