Frequently Asked Questions

What is the most common machine embroidery mistake?

Skipping or skimping on stabilizer. Without the right stabilizer, fabric shifts and puckers under dense stitching, distorting the design no matter how good your machine or digitizing is.

How do I stop embroidery from puckering?

Hoop the fabric taut but not stretched, use a stabilizer matched to the fabric weight, and slow the machine for dense fill areas. Most puckering comes from fabric moving during stitch-out.

What needle should I use for machine embroidery?

A dedicated embroidery needle (75/11 for most work) has a larger eye and special scarf that protects delicate embroidery threads from shredding at high speeds. Replace it regularly - embroidery puts thousands of stitches on a needle fast.
