Everything you need for a successful machine embroidery project lives in Linda’s Embroidery Notions collection. From stabilizers and embroidery needles to hoops, bobbin thread, and specialty scissors — we carry the tools that make embroidery easier and your finished work more professional.
What notions are essential for machine embroidery?
The must-haves include the right stabilizer for your fabric, embroidery-specific needles (usually 75/11 or 80/12), pre-wound bobbins with fine thread, sharp embroidery scissors, and a hoop sized to your design.
What kind of stabilizer should I use for machine embroidery?
Cut-away stabilizer is best for knits and stretchy fabrics, tear-away works for stable wovens, and water-soluble stabilizer is perfect for freestanding lace or when no stabilizer should remain. Browse our Stabilizer collection for full options.
Do you carry embroidery hoops and hoop aids?
Yes! We stock hoops and hoop accessories to help you achieve perfectly taut, centered designs every time. Find them in this collection or in our dedicated Hoops collection.
Can I use regular sewing thread for machine embroidery?
While possible, embroidery-specific thread produces far better results. It’s designed for the high speeds of embroidery machines and delivers richer, more vibrant color with less thread breakage.
