Thank you, Sarah. This is exactly the kind of information that I like to know, (and need!) I will certainly not be using the cut work tool for this project, but I do think I will play around with it on the side and see if I can get it to work using the placement lines as you you mentioned... I did purchase your v6 download for the month of June. So will content myself with cutting out the designs I need this month and get to work on the embroidery next month!

Hello cb4land2,

I don't - and won't! - use the cutwork tool. In my opinion it is a very time consuming way of cutting and the cuts are not the best. Since you have the v6 software and the cutwork tool this is what I would suggest if you really want to use the cutwork tool:

- in the v6 software, save a copy of each design.
- strip off everything except for the applique placement lines.
- save this and import it into the cutwork software.
- you should be able to use this stitching line as the basis for the cutwork.

In the absence of a GO! cutter and the dies, I would actually be more inclined to trace the shapes onto fusible webbing and cut them out by hand.

Kind regards,
Sarah :-)

Sarah, would it be possible to use the Bernina Cutwork tool to cut out the templates for the next three months? If so, would it be even remotely possible to show a video or something using it for this purpose? (I would completely understand if you can't as I know you must be very busy.) I own a Bernina 830, have the V6 software and also the cutwork. I really don't want to purchase the Go cutter especially since I have the cutwork tool that I should get more use out of and have already purchased.
I am enjoying everything about the Sedona Star BOM and look forward to each month. I love that I have been challenged by certain aspects of the project, which is wonderful! I am caught up with and ready to start June's blocks. I haven't posted any pictures yet... Just haven't gotten around to it!
Thank you so much for all your hard work and excellent patterns and instructions. I appreciate it very much.
