5D Embroidery Software

My new motto

This is my first embroidery from the 5D Embroidery software on Captain Jack (Baby Lock Ellure Plus Sewing Machine)

I've spent all week just making the Embroidery on the computer then erasing and making new ones. I finally found one I want to sew out. I'm going to try it next on one of my black tank tops I wear all the time. I'm not sure what colors I'll be using. I want the face very bright but I want the words readable.

This will be worked into a purse at some point. I'm thinking of cutting it out in a soft rectangle and fraying the edges. I'll probably sew it on the purse front with a pretty stitch in matching colors.

If you've been trying to post comments thanks. So far no one I've talked to has been able to. I'm going to work on moving this blog to my web page but I have to get some time with my son to do it. The Blogger posting problems been going on for years. I went back and did a bit of research when I couldn't post easily on others sites.

Little bags

I doodled with my new machine (Captain Jack) and then pulled out the Janome (Old machine) and doodled on it too. It's so strange to have two working embroidery machines. I'm sorting and trying to arrange it so I can use both regularly. I know it sounds like a luxury but they both are different. Captain Jack is a very quiet sewing machine while the Janome I'm already experienced at. LOL you should have seen me try to remember the threading :)

These bags are so simple. I tried out a embroidery on Captain Jack and decided it would make a perfect flap so I added the JOY, the placement tools on the Ellure Plus are SO AMAZING compared with what I've been working with. It seems like a miracle when I know for sure where the embroidery is going to land.

I added the words not in the embroidery looped section but I just sewed them, LOL SO COOL! I'd add 3 .'s next time instead of one.  

I just slipped the top inside did a bit of folding and sewed it down. I don't think I'd ever use the belt loop but the original had one.

Little purse laid out.

Since I did green leaf variegated thread on the front I used this print.

I made sure my phone would fit.

This embroidery was my test on the Janome I added green leaves on Captain Jack. There are so many cool stitches in just the sewing area of Ellure plus.

I sewed and flipped the second purse so I had to add the top on the outside.

I added grommets and a chain link to hold a strap.

I'm very happy with how they both turned out. I think the inside of the second purse would be a perfect place for a Captain Jack pin. :)

My wonderful day

Surprise, surprise we're going to get your new Embroidery machine today!

I'd decided on a Baby Lock so we had to leave town and head to Longview TX.

Here is my Baby Lock Ellure Plus doing it's first bit of Home Embroidery! I'm so excited I'm giddy.

The day my Janome broke I had two people ask me if I could do shirts. LOL

I couldn't wait to get material in this thing.

Sewing a stunning daisy pattern. The stitch moves right to left and forward, I can't figure out how to keep it straight so this is my first question when I go back.

Second design was just as difficult. I'm going to work on this.

My husband bought the machine for me at Sharmans Sewing Center in Longview. I'm thrilled. I thought I'd be getting it for a Christmas present maybe. :)

They gave me a One and a half hour lesson today. The software 5D Embroidery had to be ordered so I'll have time to get used to the machine before I have to learn the software. LOL I feel like I have brain overload at the moment. That's something like brain freeze but warm.

I've been keeping up on my sewing without posting. The overages really scared me on my air card. I'm going to try to be a bit more consistant.
