Member comment:I added 3 groupings of leaves from another set. I needed something very tiny for a fill and did not have time to edit some designs out. I may go back later and do that and add them in. I am so grateful to have a machine with a camera. It makes that job so much easier. I used my largest hoop but my final design was laid out for my second largest hoop. That gave me a little leeway and with the camera, I was able to get a perfect placement. I ended up scooting it over about 1/4 of an inch.Before, I did my stitch out, I added a small design from the Almond Paisley set 1 collection onto a quilt label and stitched it out in all white thread. I loved the look, so I did my whole jean jacket design in all white thread. It was roughly 88,500 stitches. It stitched out in 355 minutes. It was approximately 190 minutes at my normal stitching speed but I ended up slowing down and changing the needle to a 90. I also hit the button to do one color thread, so it really did not stop sewing unless the thread came out of the needle between jumps or if the thread broke. It took all day to sew. The digital layout also took a day. I ended up shrinking two designs to fit but not excessively, flipped or mirror imaged designs, and rotated into the positions that I needed them in. The front of this jacket has lots of pockets, but I may see if there may be room for some additional accents.

Great to see this stitch out again. Against the denim the details of these paisleys really STAND OUT don't they.
