Hi everyone, I’m diving into the world of machine embroidery and have a question about designing custom patterns. I’m using a Brother PE800 and want to create a unique design that blends intricate floral patterns with geometric elements. What’s the best software for designing and digitizing such complex patterns? Also, any tips on ensuring the design stitches out cleanly and avoids thread bunching? I’ve heard mixed reviews about different programs and techniques, so any advice or personal experiences would be greatly appreciated.

Hey all! I’ve been using this machine for about 6 months and only recently started learning more about filling a shape. My circles always have these lines through them, is this a design issue? It’s as if the shape pattern never fully meets when embroidering, but the design itself is a closed complete circle. The design program I use is inkstitch on inkscape. Not sure how to insert an image, hopefully it’s easy to understand from my description.

Hello everyone! I did something I never imagined would actually work: I made Contrado print my design on satin and it came out beautiful! Buuuut I tried to applicate the cut out satin textile with freehand quilting and I was not satisfied with the result. I am using the Bernina V6 Stitching Software and a Husquvarna Diamond deluxe and I also use the Silhouette Cameo Plotter. I read it was possible to cut out the cloth per Silhouette Cameo and then fit it in the digitized embroidery file. I guess I would have to stabilize the satin, since it is very, very flimsy and slippery. My prototype has another problem in the meantime: all the edges of the cloth are torn within …

Digitizing, also known as punching, is the process of redrawing artwork into a digital code that can be read by a computerized embroidery machine. Digitizing defines the type of stitches used by the embroidery machine, Types of stitches includes running, satin and fills. This digital code provides instructions to the embroidery machines operating system, which in turn, tells the machine's pantograph how to move the frame while it is being stitched. A skilled digitizing artist uses embroidery digitizing software to interpret your artwork into a digital embroidery pattern. She, in essence, redraws the artwork and maps out the plan how the artwork will be stitche…

I'm working on making iron on patches to put on has that I am going to sell. I wanted to know if anyone has any recommendations for fabric and iron on adhesive. I bought some tactical fabric from my local sewing store and heat and bond ultra hold. My biggest questions are, will heat and bond ultra hold be pretty permanent and hold up well? Is there a better higher grade iron on adhesive I should use? Is there a particular brand of tactical fabric or type that would be best to use? any and all help would be greatly appreciate. Thank you!

Awhile back....everything is blending during covid, but there was an article on digitizing using thick thread for high speed embroidery machines. I have experimented and know that using thicker thread requires less stitches and larger needles. Anyone else experimented and willing to share their settings or tutorial how to create designs using thicker thread? It can be a unique and different way to fill large designs using less stitches. I have included a pic. Many thanks in advance

I'm using some embroidery online store and have a nice patch designed. I've spent quite some time on it, but I can't seem to figure out how to get rid of these darn jump stitches between the letters in the outer border. I can't find any information about removing jump stitches on embroidery library and I'm wondering if anyone knows a quick tip to get the software to insert a "trim" or "cut" or whatever command needs to be put between letters to cut the thread on the underside and start over on the next letter. thanks!

Hi I'm fairly new to embroidery and have had my fair share of mistakes. I'm embroidering tee shirts which are 180gsm and polo shirts which are 220gsm. The polo shirt material is clearly thicker than the tee shirt material. I have a Brother Innov-is NV800e machine which has all sorts of tweaks such as tension, plate height etc etc. I tend to leave it as it is for everything I do and on occasion things happen that I can't explain other than maybe the machine should have been "tweaked" slightly between one cloth type and another. I also use both tear away and cut away stabiliser depending on how dense the embroidery is in places. Denser patterns will have the cut a…

Hi, I have been machine embroidering at home for nearly 30 years. I was recently gifted a CD of embroidery designs after a friend's aunt died. I use a Janome 9700 but most of these designs are for other machine, Brother, Husquana etc. Does anybody know of some free conversion software I can get hold of so that I can at least SEE these designs? Many thanks for any help you can give me!! June
