Sharing Tips & Tutorials for my Sewing, Embroidery & Silhouette Cameo creations!
I love designing with Flexishapes in Silhouette Studio! If you aren’t familiar with this feature, it is only available in Designer Edition + or Business Edition. While there are so many great features in both of these versions, Flexishapes is definitely one of my favorites. Flexishapes alone is enough reason to upgrade — in my opinion! I have created this cute little Candy Corn pattern with Flexishapes & Point Editing in Silhouette Studio Business Edition! {Read More}
Whenever there is a 50% off sale in the Silhouette Design Store (like there is now thru May 31), I like to stock up on some of the more expensive designs – specifically fonts. So this sale was no different. I downloaded some of the fonts I really liked — and quite honestly, were the most expensive! As I began working with them, I realized that many of them have multiple versions — but they appear in different {Read More}

I often get the question from attendees at ATS and retreats on whether or not they need to upgrade their Studio Software — and my answer is always YES! And there is also the question about what is an Update – I know that it is a little confusing — the different between “updates” — which are FREE — and “upgrades” – -which are not! So, I wanted to share that with you today & highlight a few of {Read More}
With the recent 50% off fonts sale in the Silhouette Design Store, you can believe that I stocked up on fonts!! I love having all the different options, and the different looks that you can achieve just by using fonts. But sometimes, it’s hard to sort through them all & decide which one to use.

Today’s Embroidery design comes from an embroidery/applique bundle at So Fontsy. I have discussed at length how to stabilize & pre-treat the fabric in {Read More}
