In this stitch along I will show you step by step not only how make the keyring tag, but how to:-
Personalise the text using built in embroidery machine fonts. 4:03
How to create the text.
How to centre the needle to your hoop to stitch your text in exactly the right place.
How to pick up the embroidery design you are making in the right place again after having stitched your personalised text.
As I used Simthread metallic thread albeit briefly in this stitch along I will show how to:
Jury rig a thread stand using a plastic beaker, three elastic bands and a pencil so that the thread unwinds nice and straight.
What needle to use.
The settings to change on your machine to stop thread from shedding to get virtually pain free stitching with metallics (I say virtually because some of it depends on some brands of thread being more challenging).

I can’t live without my sharp stabby tool as I call it, is a clay sculpting tool. I bought it in my local craft shop. Amazon do sell them as part of a clay sculpting set but not individually.
All my other supplies are from Amazon including my large squizzors. They are actually aquarium precision pinch action scissors.
I use H2O gone FSL water soluble stabilizer or Brothread cut away stabilizer for my stitch outs.

Cute isnt he. Good idea for school bags.
I really loved watching this video. You are an amazing teacher. The way you add a cutting line makes making key chains sooooo much easier. Thank you for sharing. I also bought some Large letters to make and I'm excited to try them. I really enjoy how you make a lot of them with the 5x7 hoop for those of us that don't have a bigger machine. Thank you so much, and God Bless.
Thank you so much Suzan! I am pleased you enjoy both the video and the design. I bet you can't wait to get stuck into your letters, they are a lovely design to make and so versatile too. I too use my 5x7 hoop more than any other these days as there is so much you can do with it. Happy new year 😊

Kay- are you using embroidery Mylar or just the regular Mylar like they use for the balloons
I use the sort that florists use. If you search iridescent cellophane on Amazon loads will come up. You can use the sort used for balloons too but they tend to be metallic colours rather than iridescent.
what type of tape do you use? I tried several different types and they don't stick well.
Hi Jeanne I use cheap masking tape. I hope this helps you. Happy stitching 🧵
thanks! Have switched to gorilla tape and it holds alot better. @@KaysCutz
Great video as always Kay! But I’m partial 😉. I love your videos best! What brand of metallic thread are you using in this video please? Thank you!
Thanks Suzieq. I use Simthread, their new metallic threads are really awesome.
@@KaysCutz thank you
hi there Kay can u telll me where u got the malyas from please i would love to use it many thanks xxxx
Hi sure I get my Mylar from Amazon. It's also known as iridescent florists cellophane. I hope this helps. Happy stitching.
kay i sewed out the ho ho ho gnome in pes and his hand looking at him on the left is not sewn out. not finished.
Mary I sent you a message on KK group.
Thank you for showing this Kay! I have been doin this for a while but did learn a couple of new tricks! What is the white object on the bottom right of the hoop when you are stitching?
You are welcome. My 4x4 hoop seems to vibrate a lot when I stitch with it and the noise of it vibrating as it moves is annoying and distracting in a video so I hold a bit of plastic on the hoop just to stop making too much noise.
@@KaysCutz oh, I see! I thought maybe you had some special tool for embroidering that we all might “need”. LOL!
@@bjerles no, I think it might be one of the bones out of my old back braces, I try and re-purpose things as much as I can. It is just one of those things you find something and use a lot because it is handy. I tend to use it to smooth fabric as it stitches so that I don't end up going viral by stitching through my fingers on film, it is surprising how quick that hoop whips round the foot to get you. lol
@@KaysCutz it sure is quick! I have stitched through a plastic head pin before. Luckily not a finger!
@@KaysCutz Love your humour 🤣
Where do you find the pins? What are they called?
Hi Lynn, they are called T pins and I get mine on Amazon. I find that the big 2" ones are best for hooping.
Do you have a female gnome?
No sorry Janet. Thanks for watching. Happy stitching.
