I need to know how to sew to use an embroidery machine.
When hooping, always stretch fabric tight as a drum in the hoop and tighten the screw as much as possible for embroidery.
Use 1 tearaway for wovens, 2 for knits. The thinner the fabric, the heavier the stabilizer; the heavier the fabric, the thinner the stabilizer.
Serger thread makes the perfect bobbin thread for embroidery.
A good design sews out perfectly on
When outlines are off, it always means a poorly digitized design.
Always use a size 90 embroidery needle.
Heat-fusible and “sticky back” tearaways are the best solution for knits
Looping is caused by poor digitizing.
Bobbin thread pulled to the top is caused by a bad design/poor digitizing.
All thread breaks are due to bad (poorly digitized) designs.
All needle breaks are due to bad (poorly digitized) designs.
Coffee filters, dryer sheets, and freezer wrap are perfectly suited to backing and are more economical.
You can sharpen dull needles with fine sand paper.
Testing designs is a waste of time; the designer has already thoroughly tested the design.
When making a practice piece, you can use regular sewing or serger thread, any fabric oriented willy-nilly in the hoop, and skip the backing. This conserves expensive embroidery supplies.
