Jenny: Hi everybody, it’s Jenny from the MSQC and I am here with Courtney. Courtney
works on our events team. And she is also a master quilter, the knower of all things,
thread and machine. And she’s going to actually show us today how to use new EverSewn SparrowX
which is an embroidery machine, correct? Courtney: Yes, ma’am.
Jenny: So this is very foreign to me so she’s going to, we’re going to learn together
today. Courtney: Hi. Well we are going to embroider
on our little buddy dinosaur today. He’s very cute. He has a little tail. And at first
you think how am going to fit him under the machine. But the wonderful thing about these
little guys is that their little bodies come out.. Jenny: Oh wow! And they become weapons. Courtney: And their head comes out. So now
he can get. Oh there’s still a snout in him. Let’s see. Oh there is. Oh nope, snout
is in there. Jenny: Ok that stays.. Courtney: Oh nope, I can get it out. . Nope he’s sewn in there.
Jenny: Yep. He’s sewn in. Courtney: But the rest of the body is all
flat so now we can get him in a hoop. So that’s most important. We need to get him in a hoop.
Jenny: Alright one of the things that’s important to note on this is that you don’t
have to have one of these to use the embroidery machine. That this can, you can embroider
on anything. There’s a lot of quilters out there that embroider little squares and put
them together in quilts and it makes a beautiful project so. But this is also a great way to
make labels for quilts, correct? Courtney: Absolutely
