<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Wow- what a year I have had! I won't go into the details but suffice to say that it has been a rough one. But it seems to be turning around and I have found more 'mojo' again. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Some of you may know that the Artistic Suite by Janome and Bernina Design Works are the same program, essentially. I no longer have Design Works but kept the Artistic Suite because it connects directly to my Silhouette Cameo. They had an update in May and so my screen may not look quite the same, however it is so similar that I will begin again posting some of my creations.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I am pretty excited to see the Fall and Halloween decorations at Michaels and JoAnns. I decided I need a fall table runner and I purchased some apple print fabric and I started a new project.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I am also teaching a digital cutter class at a local sewing store and the class in September will be how to create cut files from an existing embroidery design. You can find the free pattern <a href="http://www.mccallsquilting.com/quickquilts/articles/Apple_of_My_Eye_FREE_Applique_Hot_Pad_Quilt_Pattern">here</a>.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The table runner is in the magazine ( a digital download) and has been a plain apple and an apple with core/seeds. So I started designing and spent all weekend coming up with these basic designs. Yikes!</span><br />

My life has been super chaotic but I had to take time to prepare a few samples for the "Home Sweet Home" event at the Bernina Sewing Center in Tampa, FL.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">As part of my presentation, I created a barbecue apron and chef's hat. The design for the barbecue apron came from <i>Bernina's Inspiration Magazine #64. </i></span><br />

I definitely use the Cutwork tool to cut multiple pieces for my larger projects, but when I need only one wing and one bird body, I use the Silhouette Cameo.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">It is easy to convert the cutwork file to a Studio file following the tutorial below. Using the original cutwork file, delete the red basting box and change the cutwork back into a <b>Line</b> design.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The first step is to drag the bird body and bird wing </span><span style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;">off the hoop</span><span style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;">.

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I then copy and paste the shapes into a NEW file. </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I usually change the</span><b style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> Cutting Offset</b><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> to </span><b style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">0.3mm</b><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> to make it larger so the blanket stitch covers all of the fabric pieces.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The file will come in grouped and so the first step is to </span><b style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">ungroup</b><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> them.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Using the rectangle shape, I draw a rectangle around each shape and resize it to a basic shape such as 3" x 3". <i> This rectangle is the size of the cut fabric and you will place your cut fabric in this square.</i></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I always center the designs within each rectangle using the alignment tools. Then I change the line to a <b>Running </b>stitch with a length of 3.0<b>.</b></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I then make a duplicate of the rectangle and reduce the size by a 1/4" or 2.75" x 2.75". I change the color to red and a running stitch of 3.0 as well.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I combine the blue running stitch rectangle and place them first in the design. I combine the red rectangles and place them second so they will sew out after I have placed my fabric in the hoop. Then the red stitching will baste the fabric to the hoop.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The last step is to select the bird body and the wing shape and Combine them. This step will then cut out the #1 blade position in both shapes, the #2 etc.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Today's lesson is using any one of the Colorful Birds, since they are all the same - just different colors!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Follow the same steps as the trowel including resizing the design to fit into the rectangle.

As always, I set the "x" and "y" axis at 0 and this centers the design in the middle of the hoop.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">SOW I was able to stitch the lining of the Garden tote and take pictures of my steps along the way!</span><br />

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The first step was to top stitch 1/2" from the edge of both lining pockets. Then pin them to the bottom edge of the lining and baste along the sides and bottom.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The last step is to stitch down the center of both lining pockets. Sew the narrow lining sides to each long end of the wide lining base using a 1/2" seam and press.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The next step is to sew the lining to the bottom of the piece pictured above.</span></div>

I was having the worst time trying to figure out the pattern pieces to this pattern. We had a few 'quiet' days at work and I was able to work on this project. After it is finished, I will add it to my DesignWorks corner at the store for some DW inspiration!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The first step I cut <u>two 6" x 25" pattern pocket pieces.</u> I decided to cut them slightly larger than the pattern to allow for shrinkage. I then marked a center line horizontally at 3" and the vertical sections from the pattern. I used a black Frixion pen but you can use any one of your favorite marking tools.</span><br />

I am sure some of you are waiting for spring to arrive....</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">SOW let's give Spring a jump start! The first step I did was to scan the pocket pattern with the marking for the size of each pocket.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

My Easter lilies are popping up but I doubt I will have any flowers for Easter. How is the weather where you live? Soon warm weather will be here, and this Diva will be inside!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I mentioned another time that I am a member of the Daily Art Hub club. Their designs are perfect for this software. They are basically 'flat' and can adapt to the paintworks and cutworks quite easily. I can share the designs as long as I give credit to the Daily Art Hub site. Take a look at all of the designs they have to offer and they share a FREE set each day. </span><a href="http://dailyarthub.com/" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">Here</span></a><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> is the link...</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">If you are playing along with me in this challenge, then you have already downloaded your pattern, taped it together and cut out the pattern pieces. If you are new to this challenge, check out my post <span style="font-size: large;"><a href="http://dwlessons.blogspot.com/2016/03/spring-has-sprung.html">here.</a></span></span><br />

We lost a few plants this winter when we had a freeze in January and so we had to replace a few.</span><div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">As I was flipping through my Creative Machine Embroidery magazine the other day, I came across this garden tote project. My garden tote is looking pretty shabby, so I thought I need to make a new one!</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEisbyhLdU63ThojL5ExXWKdqjCYhOOPXTG2aLRLI3evQ9LoM-D4RWXijhvAgH-S55Z1JAzsjxTjoKbSLbiz4d7XaAPd9vi4vZxKYnfPxxeoTgHWtl_6mNvI2UxwJFaIm65HagSDaD-yaA/s1600/Garden+Variety+tote.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEisbyhLdU63ThojL5ExXWKdqjCYhOOPXTG2aLRLI3evQ9LoM-D4RWXijhvAgH-S55Z1JAzsjxTjoKbSLbiz4d7XaAPd9vi4vZxKYnfPxxeoTgHWtl_6mNvI2UxwJFaIm65HagSDaD-yaA/s1600/Garden+Variety+tote.JPG" /></a></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I also thought that the front pockets would be a perfect palette for a few DesignWorks projects. So I am challenging you all to 'dust' off the DW software and tools and come play with me.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">You can download the free pattern for the Garden Variety Tote<span style="color: #274e13;"> <a href="http://www.cmemag.com/articles/Garden-Variety-Tote?bc=c"><span style="font-size: large;">here</span></a></span> until April 30th. If you would like to play along, then print off all of the pattern pieces and tape them together. BEWARE - there are 16 pages. Cut out the paper pattern pieces and set them aside.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">You can pick up the magazine at your local JoAnn Fabrics or you can download a digital issue from the same link above. The instructions to sew the tote are in the magazine. I will go over a few steps but not all of them.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">If you do not want to make a garden tote, of course you can make any project you would like.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>

I started again with the Gingerbread Paint file.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhY2V64M-8jvHg0t8RQCeSAv29OnxHCSSsKuYv6HF_SAReqXwuF4ZVS9zQhhlBMaP9V7XZTTsmtu1WbgLcZ4sdnH9W9SMOSyd386fL29JCI1f8e-AkSR6uOtHP_flV4P4uCaBsoq_1F3Q/s1600/gingerbread+man+paint.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="338" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhY2V64M-8jvHg0t8RQCeSAv29OnxHCSSsKuYv6HF_SAReqXwuF4ZVS9zQhhlBMaP9V7XZTTsmtu1WbgLcZ4sdnH9W9SMOSyd386fL29JCI1f8e-AkSR6uOtHP_flV4P4uCaBsoq_1F3Q/s400/gingerbread+man+paint.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I then thought about HOW I wanted this design to stitch out. Remember when we made the cookies, we made the dough first and then cut them out with the cookie cutter. So the brown background is first!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">So I changed the <b>Fill</b> to an Appliqué with an >Offset of -.03 and Cleaning >Laser Cut or Precut.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Then I changed the <b>Outline</b> to a Satin Stitch of between .06-.08. You decide!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I then added and <b>Autoborder</b> >To the inside of 1.0 and Running stitch for an added security measure. ( this is a change that I made this year)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">This is last year's design. This year I left the eyes and mouth with a Paint fill</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">After you open up the software, select <i>New</i> and select your <i>Gingerbread</i> <i>Man Paint</i> from your most recent designs. <u>Change the hoop to your largest hoop with foot #44C.</u></span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Click on each section (except the eyes and mouth) and convert the outline to Cutwork and delete the fill. For all of the sections, I checked <i> Running Before</i> for 1.0 mm and an <i>Offset </i>of .3mm.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I drew a rectangle around each shape so I could place my pieces on the hoop.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Be sure to convert the outline to a <i>Running Stitch </i>or it will paint the rectangle. Drag the top tray to the bottom so the rectangles will stitch out first.</span></div>

Now I must tell you this is H-U-G-E! I haven't made cookies in years..</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Why?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">#1 - the big guy and I do not need them! (just ask our doctor!)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">#2 - who eats them but us? ( no kids at home OR grandkids!)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">#3 - I would rather be sewing than baking!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">So to help celebrate this festive occasion, I am sharing this week how I made this 'no bake' gingerbread man. Here is the finished guy on this very cute apron with fabric from my stash!</span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Now start "coloring" your design! Select the color chip and add a fill and an outline to each section of the design. You will notice some white colors 'sitting on top' which is why the design won't fill in. Just drag off the white and delete it. Then continuing coloring your design. I selected gray for the "rick-rack' color.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">In her tutorial, she attaches a Snowflake template jpg file of the snowflake for you to download. This design did not trace very neatly so I went back to my colorful snowflakes and selected snowflake 4.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">After tracing the design you will have to <i><b>trim</b></i> out the center before you delete the white background or it will fill in it as solid.</span></div>
<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Create a cutwork and appliqué snowflake following the video from yesterday's lesson <a href="http://dwlessons.blogspot.com/2015/12/welcome-to-rewind-wednesday.html">here.</a></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Here is the example of the <i>Cutwork</i> snowflake 4. Remember to select your largest hoop with foot #44C.</span><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_9oQsvQzAdSx0tw1nmO1exl9ZljiKusQC9cYT3_yHeRwwhtXqmnBlFs4szgeHf4eSSrO7NuBtdlVVAHfP1Jrgvx9NFrmwVl0UgxJZzyyMl5I0TMhAQhYwmix1yCrPfgCKHvfTJ3Exkw/s1600/cutwork+snow.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="336" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_9oQsvQzAdSx0tw1nmO1exl9ZljiKusQC9cYT3_yHeRwwhtXqmnBlFs4szgeHf4eSSrO7NuBtdlVVAHfP1Jrgvx9NFrmwVl0UgxJZzyyMl5I0TMhAQhYwmix1yCrPfgCKHvfTJ3Exkw/s640/cutwork+snow.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I then created a<i><b> 'raw edge appliqué file'</b></i> by first duplicating the cutwork design and then I changed it to a different color and selected a running stitch. <i>That stitch out is going to be your placement stitch. Be sure to change your hoop to #26.</i></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><i><br /></i></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I then added a second running stitch and changed the color and<i> <b>set the offset to the inside of -1.0.</b></i></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><i><b><br /></b></i></span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><i><b><br /></b></i></span></div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Move the placement stitch tile to the first position (drag the frame to the bottom) so you can place your snowflake cut-out in the correct position.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Now I have never cut out felt with my cutwork tool so I haven't any suggestions. Perhaps someone who has can comment below. This idea right now is in theory only, anyone want to give it a try?</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">When I have only one design to cut, I usually cut it on the Silhouette Cameo. I opened the EXP design in my Floriani Total Control U software and deleted everything but the placement stitch. You can save your design in the SVG format and then open it in the Designer Edition of the Silhouette software.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">However this week the newest Silhouette software update has been released and it will read the Exp embroider files. So I opened the 5 x 7 small outline and it was super easy to cut out the appliqué shapes. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">I cut a piece of black fabric approximately 5 " x 7", sprayed it with Best Press and ironed Heat and Bond Lite to the back of the fabric. After it cooled, I removed the paper backing and cut it out with the following settings:</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">I then started to work on the mouth and I did the same thing. How do I know there is a hole? Look carefully at the mouth in the Sequence Manager and you will see the scissors. But the design is not filled in.</span></div>

<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">The lesson for "Rewind Wednesday" is going to be slightly different today! Recently Dottie H. was looking for some additional cutwork designs and one of the links I sent her is from the free download on the Bernina site <a href="http://www.bernina.com/en-US/Experience-en-US/Free-Downloads#/Software/">here.</a></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Since she does not own the software, her computer had no idea what program would open up the designs. You will notice there are 4 files in the zipped folder.</span><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgTMgb4xydrFx3syv4zEfK8va7isWMFDbTCCmICAKEX8U-uKIwIa5cxrAphbiQUGL3H_I09hSTSASAWCPNCdrFfLmrCNvRUFyR8PNY8OrFdr6PNJFEBn9wkr46gAG17C2G9TXTAdJ9M0w/s1600/free+cutwork+circles.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="209" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgTMgb4xydrFx3syv4zEfK8va7isWMFDbTCCmICAKEX8U-uKIwIa5cxrAphbiQUGL3H_I09hSTSASAWCPNCdrFfLmrCNvRUFyR8PNY8OrFdr6PNJFEBn9wkr46gAG17C2G9TXTAdJ9M0w/s640/free+cutwork+circles.JPG" width="640" /> </a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">The DRAW file is the native format for the <i>Bernina DesignWorks</i> program. It is the only format in which you can resize, rotate or alter to create a new design.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Many of you received the DesignWorks tools with your Sterling Edition 880 machine. You do NOT need the software to be able to use these tools only the correct file format. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">In order to be able to stitch/cut out the design on your machine, you must have all three files. The BMP, EXP and Setup information. Otherwise your machine will not be able to read/stitch out the design. It is possible to send the DRAW file to your USB stick but the machine will not be able to read it.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">I can not believe that this is the last week of October already! Since Halloween is this Friday, I thought I would re-post the lesson using the <b>symbols</b> function in the DW software.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">After working through the wizard, select a <b>New</b> graphic and <b>None</b> for the hoop. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Under the<b> Tools </b>drop down select <b>Insert Symbols</b> or <b>Crtl + F11. </b>Select <b>Webdings</b> from the Font menu and highlight the spider web.</span><br />
