    I'm self taught, as well. The sewing education never really stops!

    Thanks for this info. I've sewed over 50 yrs, never had a class, sewed all the Vogue designer patterns et al, then took up machine embroidery and quilting.
    Had no idea there was so much to learn! Glad we have internet ladies to teach us now. I'm way too old to sit in classes.
    Bless you.☮❤🙋

    I really needed this video last year when I was standing in a isle full of stabilizer and had no idea what to do but I’m glad I found it now. Thank you!!

    Hi Jodi! Definitely! Stabilizer is fantastic for securing seams in stretch clothing. You would use a cut away stabilizer. However, you could also use clear elastic (looks like elastic ribbon), medium weight black interfacing, or strips for muslin to stabilize a stretch seam.

    Awesome video. I am new to machine embroidery and until now, couldn't find a video which helped me understand stabilisers and their intended need fully. I thank you!! :-)

    Thank you so much for this video. I've been machine embroidering 6 months and still struggling with puckering on knits. I am doing well on totes, denim and towels! I'm going to order some of your stabilizers!

    Hi - my son bought me an embroidery machine for Christmas and I'm ashamed to say that I have yet to use it. Scared! I have just started two projects, clothes peg bags and thought it would be nice to monogram them. The fabric will already have iron on interfacing - would I still need to use stabilizer to embroider it?

  • @ISetMyFriendsOnFire

    Do you have to use the whole piece like that or can you just cut a small piece to adhere to match the size of the embroidery?

    I'm in a bit of a bind. I cross stitched a bib and it is cute and finished but I am afraid of leaving it as is... I know a lot of the items we buy at the store have some kind of soft backing glued over the stitches to help protect the design and also to give it a softer feel against the skin. I asked at the store and they sold me a cut away stabilizer but I don't know how to apply it. I've already finished all my stitches...any ideas how to protect my bib and make it softer??

    • @SewingPartsOnline

      Jessica Perez Hi! Perhaps iron on fusible backing would be a good option?

    Your machine in this tutorial looks like my Brother LB6800, but that embroidery foot is different. It that an optional item, and if so what is it called? Thanks.

    • @SewingPartsOnline
      @SewingPartsOnline  9 лет назад +1

      Hi! Yup, the foot I'm using is an optional accessory for my lb6800. It's called The Big Foot. I like the larger contact area and the clear toe. Here's what it looks like: www.sewingpartsonline.com/big-foot-low-shank-bf-l.aspx

    I have a question, my mother in law wants to sew/cross stitch honestly I have no idea what kind as I don’t have any clue. I need to know the type of stitching she’s trying to explain if you could help me. Back home she said they used to use x to sitch on top of fabric. I have no clue what she’s talking about as I’m clueless to this stuff and I showed her this video and said no it’s not what’s she’s looking for does anyone know? I showed her hand embroidery she said it wasn’t so idk please help

    Can I use double tear away stabilizer under satin instead of water soluble stabilizer on top? I’m embroidering a graduation stole and the fuzzies on the words don’t make the embroidery look as clean and I’m not sure if its safe to wet them I don’t want it to dry different.

    • @SewingPartsOnline

      Graduation stoles can be a little tricky because the two layers of satin fabric can easily shift. You can use two layers of tear-away; however, another thing to consider would be to use a stabilizer like Sticky + - in addition to using the tear away. This will help to prevent puckering and give you better results. Also, I suggest changing your needle for a Sharp.

    Hm Question, the only embroidery I'm able to do until I can afford a machine is by hand, do you know any tricks for keeping the stitches on back a little neater? I mostly use satin stitches (cuz it's like drawing, which I adore!) and I want to make some scarves to sell at fairs. I just want the final product to look nicer. The material I'm starting with is fleece. ANY advice is welcomed, I'm such a novice when it comes to sewing >.

      ACIDBLACKLOVE Lastname Hi! I know a few people who cover the back of their embroidery designs with a cute piece of fabric stitched along the shape of the embroidery or heat-fused in place. However, if you don't want to cover up the back of the stitches, this article has some tips on keeping the back neat: www.needlenthread.com/2010/05/dark-side-embroidery-back.html

    • @acidblacklove7657
      @acidblacklove7657 9 лет назад

      Thanks! I'm a novice and all I do is hand stitching ( a machine is a far off dream) I've only practices small things and the back is always a mess x.x i like the idea of just covering it with something else.... I could do a kind of patch i suppose..thanka for the reply ^^
