do you do the placement stitch on the software or does your machine do it? If so how do I do the placement. I have had a patch done for me and I asked to do a placement stitch and they did not do it.
Hi! I'm making jet tags currently and I'm running into the issue of how you cut the twill perfect. How did you manage to cut the twill perfectly like that with no edges frayed? Could you please let me know how you managed to cut it exactly to size? Thank you!
Hi! For these, I purchased a small laser cutter which gives me the perfect shape with no issues on the edges. You can see it here: ruclips.net/video/zxeBx0PcsFo/видео.html
Hello! Thanks for posting this tutorial. If I want to do colored bobbin do you use 60 wt thread for the bobbin? I can’t seem to find anywhere that sells colored bobbin in 90 wt.
Hi! Hope you enjoyed the video. I prefer the pre-wound bobbins but my understanding is that the bobbin thread used with these Magna-Glide ones is 60wt so that should not be an issue if you plan on winding your own to a specific color.
Hi there, is the grommet size you used for this project the 1/4" (6mm) or bigger? The link you provided took me to the 1/4" size, but just wanna make sure, just in case that's the default size for that particular punch on Amazon. I like the size you used on your project.
I would test it out but it should be very similar. If its too thin, you might want to double it up. The goal is to have the material hold well while embroidering but allow it to release easily.
Do you think this can be done on a Brother SE625? I'm new to sewing/embroidery machines, and I was a curious if this machine would accomplish the thick border around the key tag.
I definitely think it would be possible, but the only way to know for sure is to try it out! I had the PE800 before my Melco and was impressed with the things it could do.
I started with the Brother PE800 which works fantastically but has a smaller work space (5"x7") and can only do one color at a time. If you are wanting to start a business with this, you should look at the Melco Bravo as a great entry level semi-commercial embroidery machine.
Thanks for watching! If you wanted to do a pattern on the back, you would just have to do the embroidery on the second piece as you did on the front then put them together after
Hello! Thanks for watching. The pattern is sold by Fuller Embroidery. Their website is in the description. For the text, I had my digitizer create the file.
I use the software that came with my Melco called design shop. If you aren't comfortable or don't have the software yet, I would ask your digitizer but be specific about the steps that are needed. 1) placement stitch, 2) tack down stitch for the twill, 3) text/design on inside, 4) outer border. You may want to add stops between step 3 and 4 so you can add the bottom twill on.
It really depends on how many you are planning to make. If you are just testing, I would just order a small amount in a common color such as black or white.
I'm not sure if I have it anymore. Someone told me the guy took the file down. You may be able to find an alternative or reach out directly to Jeff Fuller to create something like this again!
Hi! I used the Fuller Border which is a replicated "Merrow" edge stitching. The Merrow edge is usually created by a merrow machine but they can cost around $1500-2000+ USD to purchase. You can find the file on fullerembroideryworks.com
Hello! Yes, I did cut it out myself. The embroidery design files come with a cut template which you can use to cut it out with scissors. You can save a bit of time especially if you are doing larger quantities by cutting the twill with a laser or vinyl cutting machine.
@@LovesBranding which design files ? what do you mean by a cut template? ill have to see who can laser cut locally if thats easier. Def gonna get the $5 edge stitching you shared as well.
@@KukuyRulezDood The edge file comes with a vector file which you can use to cut the twill either by hand or by laser. Makes it really easy to know exactly what size twill you need for the 'applique' portion.
@@TheDelightgrl The plastic sheeting is just standard 3-4mil sheeting that you can find at your local hardware store that is usually used for like painting and such. Here's an amazon link for it. amzn.to/3Y6cXKT No stabilizer is needed here because the twill will be the structure of the embroidery to hold everything together. The plastic acts as the stabilizer for when the embroidery is being done but can be removed afterward. If you have a design that is a lot more dense, you may need a thicker plastic sheeting as it is more likely to tear when its being worked on.
Hi! Thanks for watching :) If you wanted to do a two-sided one, I would just add the embroidery on the other fabric first before attaching them together. I have a video of this process shot and will upload it soon, I just have had a lot of changes going on that has put me off for a bit unfortunately.
@@vonnylicious Absolutely! Hope it works well for you. The only thing I've notice with doing two sided embroidery in this way is if the stitches stack up, it starts to become bumpy on the design because of the thickness.
Thank you! How would I put my designs on the layout or cut ? while digitizing ? Could you do a tutorial on in depth with designing a jet tag on a software
@@elsieinthapanhnha I use the DesignShop software that comes with my Melco machine to place the design on top of the file. Alternatively, Embrilliance is a great option to add a design to an existing design file. I definitely can make a follow up video on this in the future to demonstrate this!
I was able to make my own with Embrilliance Stitch Artist although I later saw some blank designs on Etsy. I used a heavy black contractor trash bag for the first few that I made until I purchased the clear plastic. Thank you for an excellent video!
Tip for grommet placement, on the top design, digitize a tiny cross or "x". Then you don't have to try to guess.
Such a simple but quick idea. Thanks for the suggestion!
I love you for posting this. Came out so sick, gonna try making one myself this weekend. That black bobbin is the key, gotta order myself some
Glad you found it helpful! Hope they turn out well :)
Thanks for sharing this technique! It worked great for me.
Great to hear!
I like this, and keep up the good work bro. It's less time consuming than the other videos I was actually thinking to learn from
Thank you so much for the feedback! I really hope to step it up this year with better quality videos 🙏
Gracias amigo, por más que busque tutoriales de como bordar un llavero con dos caras no encontraba, hasta que ví tu excelente video

I learned something new from your video and got a valuable tip. I appreciate it more than you know. Thank you!!
So glad you found something useful in the video! Thank you for watching 😃
great work. Thank you!
Thanks for watching!
Curious on your method of cutting the twill pieces into rectangles so perfect. What tools do you use?
Just using a ruler and taking my time! I did a video with a laser which I tried and it was okay but not that powerful
Just a suggestion.. use the punch to punch a hole first, then put the grommet on. That will flatten out the grommet better on the backside.
Great idea! I'll likely invest in a heavier duty gromet punch down the road to help out with that
do you do the placement stitch on the software or does your machine do it? If so how do I do the placement. I have had a patch done for me and I asked to do a placement stitch and they did not do it.
I wrote too quick. YOu answered my question

If it's fraying you're using a high cotton blend. Gunold Poly is 65% poly/35% cotton.
Hi,
Did you just digitize Pro-4X and embroidered then switched to the fuller jet tag file to emrbroider the edges?
Correct. The jet tag file comes with just the edge so I add the digitized art file into it but it allows you to use it with any design.

Nice work brotha but what’s the prices if you wanna do both sides ?
It wouldn't be too expensive. I don't make these anymore unfortunately
Hi sir, can we use this tactic with multiple design on same loop, thanks in advance
Yes this is very possible! Just need a larger hoop and you can do that.
Does drop cloth work just the same as plastic sheeting?
I would test it out but it should be very similar. If its too thin, you might want to double it up. The goal is to have the material hold well while embroidering but allow it to release easily.

is there a site to print your own keychain straps with the black clips and key ring? i see those type of anime embroid prints a lot
I'm sure there are, I am not familiar with any. I would look up sublimated keychains as a keyword to hopefully help you find what you're asking about.
Did you use the satin stitch for Border
Yes, its a modified satin stitch to make it look like a marrow border
What equipment would you recommend for someone wanting to start embroidering, especially these jet tags?
I started with the Brother PE800 which works fantastically but has a smaller work space (5"x7") and can only do one color at a time. If you are wanting to start a business with this, you should look at the Melco Bravo as a great entry level semi-commercial embroidery machine.

how much should i order for twills? i really wanna try but im confused how much should i buy for a starter

Can you share your file? I am having the hardest time figuring out how to get the embroidery on both sides.

Where is another place to get twill that doesn't require tax exempt certificate for resale? or how can we buy from them as a individual?
I would say to check local fabric shops for patch twill or canvas material can work well too!
Can this be done on a brother se600?

It's pronounced "base-ting". As a tailor, it's an alternative to basting with needle and thread
That makes sense, although I guarantee I'll say it wrong again in the future so please don't hold it against me 😅
thanks but those who need the machine
