stellajane1966 2 Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 Hi all. Im very ,very new to machine embroidery. In fact ALL embroidery. I have a fabulous brother embrodery machine and absolutely love it. ive had my partners business logo digitized and attempted to embroider it tonight. I did a test piece On some purple felt with tear away stabilizer and it looked amazing. When i did it on a cotton tshirt it wasn't as good as the felt. Is this because the felt is more rigid? how do i overcome this problem? Can any one advise me? 1 1 Quote Link to post
Mila Oost 377 Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 Hello! This is a well-known problem. When I started my hobby in machine embroidery, I had no one to ask for advice. Thin, opaque fabrics and jersey must be reinforced with a thin thermal fleece (fliseline) and on wrong side of your T-shirt. I use "cut-away" stabilizer for the hoop. On top of the embroidery area, pin a piece of thin water-soluble film stabilizer with pins. That prevents sinking stitches. Wish you success! 1 Quote Link to post
