  • Re: Hooping A Store Bought Tote Bag

    Hello Barbara! Thanks for your input on my bobbin statement. I had noted in my needles blog that machines which sew and embroider 'would' have two bobbin cases. It is explained more in the blog but your machine which does dual duty, only had one. Thanks for that information! I have corrected...

  • The Avid Embroiderer Presents: Cutwork, August 8, 2008

    I just returned from a short trip. By the time I got to Phoenix, it was 112° and it was 115° where I was staying. Naturally that got me to thinking about . . . Christmas.

  • Re: Stitch Density and Fabrics

    I can not stress enough the fact ALWAYS,ALWAYS ,ALWAYS do test sew outs for any type of fabric. It is the best way to tell what stabilizers you need for that particular item.Some may need two,three even more .I never do any embroidery without WSS on the top.It just makes every project come out nicer...

  • Re: Stitch Density and Fabrics

    My goodness,I just realized you had two types of fabric you are using here.Silly me !I would say again for the cotton,what are you using for stabilizer's? Cotton is a very light weight fabric,so dense stitches are likely to pucker it. I just thought of something else as well,did you re-size the design...
