Hello, I am making a brush to line up stitching spacing. The spacing is the entire purpose of this. I carefully drew the stitch marks the appropriate length and angle and spaced them apart. After a lot of trial and error, I have one file that works, then tried to apply the same brush on another file and the spacing is completely squished. Could you look at what I'm doing and find the error of my ways??? Thank you!!!
Ah, yes. I think I just did.

Thank you.
Your pattern is too long. Illustrator needs to compress it because it's longer than the path. With a pattern brush, you only need one repeat. Put an invisible rectangle in the background which marks the repeat.
You can also use the distance setting in the brush options.
