dpsquilter Posted January 12, 2014 Report Share Posted January 12, 2014 I have no idea but I LOVE it. I love the pattern, the colors, everything about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wannabelongarm Posted January 12, 2014 Report Share Posted January 12, 2014 How cute is that! It looks like several sizes of tear drops cut out - does anyone have a Scan and Cut by Brother? I think we are going to have one at the studio to play with, I can ask Matt when I see him at the studio or ask him to chime in here. Let us know what you find out.

qltnbe Posted January 12, 2014 Report Share Posted January 12, 2014 Very cute. My first though was to try to sketch it up as it seems pretty simple, then you could make it any size that you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LindaSteller Posted January 12, 2014 Report Share Posted January 12, 2014 Joanne - I don't have the Brother machine, but I have the Silhouette Cameo. It is da bomb! And, it's less expensive than the Brother. A friend bought a Brother machine when they debuted at Houston last fall and was in negotiations to return it. It did not work well and she was very frustrated. Could have just been a bad apple, but I'd go with the Silhouette for less money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Linda, Can you program your own patterns or do you have to use downloaded ones (The DW is a Graphic Artist, among many of her artistic talents so being able to design would take it from Da Bomb to Da Bomb diggity as my nieces would say!)

RitaR Posted January 13, 2014 Report Share Posted January 13, 2014 I'd draw it out in graph, then determine the size you want the quilt, and the border/binding, Figure it in quarters, and base the leaf size that you come up with. Not hard to draw out, or ask someone to draw the feathers, and/or the bird, flowers leaf. I usually draw things like this, in the size I want using old newspaper or butcher paper, a sketch pad page, etc. Lay the base shapes out, and arrange them the way you want.. determine how many feathers or tear drops, and flower leaves and flowers you need and in what colors. It may sound daunting, but if you do it part by part, and not be figuring the whole thing as one unit, it is less scary and you will be surprised at just what you CAN do.

RitaR Posted January 13, 2014 Report Share Posted January 13, 2014 News papers often sell roll ends of paper that can be used, and not pricy at all. I keep forgetting to go get a roll.. Rita Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can draw your own things. You can also scan things in and have it cut them. So far, it does absolutely everything I could want it to do. I really, really like this machine. You can cut paper, card stock, fabric, vinyl, leather, etc. I love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rita Our local newspaper drops the roll ends off at the recycling center. You can just go and pick them up. Nothing like free! ;D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is now on my "must have list"! Looks like there are two different levels to the software as I do more research. Do you have the standard or the designer edition upgrade?
