![Gunna - today i did good [Official Video]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/ulGLk8TaXcI/mqdefault.jpg)
This video may be 8 years old but it is the only one that gave me what I have been searching for (and I have looked at a LOT of videos). A clean front AND a clean back when embroidering towels! Great job Ms. Olsten. You visuals were good and the explanation of each step even better.
Oh my gosh! I've been embroiderying since Hector was a pup! I've also taught Machine Embroidery for over 15 years and I learned so much from this vid. Thank you. It may have come out in 2014--8 years ago, but it is as relevant today as it was in 2014. Thank you.
I followed your instructions to the letter and my towel project turned out stunning! Thank you very much for the clear instructions! I have 4 more towels to do before Christmas and will use your process for all of them.
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your nice comments, Connie. I will forward these on to Ellen and she will be thrilled. Towels can be challenging. Congratulations!
Omg! This was a jaw dropping tutorial. I had no idea they had that sticky paper. And I’ve never thought about trying the temporary spray on the topper. So very helpful and appreciative.
Thanks so much! We have had such a wonderful response to this video over the years, and we appreciate each and every one of you.
@@pattilee5964 Yesss. No problem
I've been embroidering for about 1 years and this is the best instruction I have ever seem. Very detailed, simple and clear to understand. Thank You!
You need the bottom stabilizer bigger than the hoop and the top wss big enough that the edges won't get caught during stitching.
This is absolutely the best video ever for embroidery:)
Thank you. This is one of the best tutorials I've seen.
This was an excellent video. I have thus far monogrammed towels, hand towels and face cloths using this method with excellent results. Thank you so much. I look forward to more of your instructional videos. Thanks again.
I've only embroidered on a towel twice, and both were disasters after washing.
This gives me confidence to try again using my everyday inexpensive wash cloths.
Thank you for the video!
Do I have to use such large pieces of product? It seems like so much is being peeled off and thrown away.
Very nice instruction on the stabilizers & hooping.. Thank you
Thank you so much. These instructions are wonderful , step by step, can't wait to try this, again thank you.
Thank you. Easy to follow instructions. Can't wait to try!!
Excellent instructions & explanation of why! Thank you! You have a new fan.
You are so welcome! Thanks for watching and becoming a new fan!
I love love the sticky stabilizer, I use it all the time. And Thank-you about the other stabilizers, I was having problems also with towels. Great video!
Glad to see this item. As I live in Australia. Makes it .a lot easy when you know whats on sale
Thank you for the helpful video and for sharing your knowledge.
Fantastic video! Super easy to follow instructions! Thank you so much!
I actually prefer to hoop my towels but I never tried the iron on stabelizer for the back………is it ok to double stabelizer? I use a regular wash away stabelizer for the back and would like to also include the iron on for more stiffness, is this a good idea or bad idea?
Wonderful tutorial
Bless you!!! After watching this I'm no longer afraid to embroidery towels! 😁 Could you share what don't that is? I love it!
Hi Kasey - I asked Ellen that a couple of months ago, and she couldn't remember. You could check www.designsbyjuju.com, they have a ton of wonderful fonts. Or ask an embroidery group on Facebook. They are asked about fonts all the time, and they come up with the most amazing sources. Someone will recognize that font. One of the groups that I belong to is: Embroidery Help and Advice on Facebook. Just type that name in the Facebook search bar. There are lots of others available, too.
Love the video. Great instructions.
Great video. I feel encouraged to try again. Last time was not successful. I also like your font. Can you tell us where you got it?
straightforward and effective, great video!
What kind of thread do you use for the bobbin
Do you prewash your towels prior to embroidery?
Excellent have always had trouble getting the solve removed
Yes, this is the best video !! and I need to ask a question regarding water soluble stabilizer (WSS), What should I use Light Weight, Medium weight or Heavy weight when it comes to WSS.
Hi Janet - for a topper on a towel, the lightest weight Solvy is all you need. The medium weight could be used, too, (Super Solvy), but it's overkill. The heaviest weight Ultra Solvy is mostly used for free-standing lace designs, or making scarves. There are others, too, that are used for specialty projects, like Paper Solvy (Foundation Paper Piecing), Fabri-Solvy for in the hoop projects, and Sticky Fabri-Solvy or Stick 'n Stitch which are printable in a printer or copy machine. Using a heavier water soluble than necessary can result in a more difficult removal (more rinsing). As you know, you can generally just pull Solvy away, and any little bits remaining will wash out when laundered. You can also place a paper towel over the design and spritz the paper towel with water and iron it dry and that will get rid of any remaining bits. So glad you liked the video.
Amazing instructions!!!!! Love the video!
Wow, thanks. Wish I had this before my last wedding and christmas presents. Keep them coming
You are so welcome! Thanks for watching!
Wow! Such great tips! Thanks so much for sharing!
I've used this technique and stabilizers and my stitching got lost in the towel fibers. I'm wondering if i should of used super or ultra solvy if that would of made a difference. The towel was really soft and nappy. Thanks.
What font did you use, just love it
Would like a stipple background
I know this is a really old but would this technique work for minky fabric as well?
Usually with Minky you do not want any stabilizer to show on the wrong side. AND Minky should not be ironed, so instead of the Totally Stable I would use Sulky Sticky Fabri-Solvy. It works just like the Sticky+ that Ellen used, and also has a release sheet which would behave the same way; but it will completely wash away, and you do not have to pull anything away from the Minky. That way there will be no remaining stabilizer showing on the wrong side (and very often we use Minky for reversible blankets). You would still want the Solvy topper to hold the nap of the Minky down. If you need more info, contact me at info@sulky.com.
Can you please tell me what thread are you using for embroidering? Thank you
Hi Marina - Ellen is using Sulky 40 wt. Rayon Thread. There are 388 colors available in this thread line. If you want to bleach the towel, I would recommend Sulky Poly Deco, also a 40 wt. thread.
Thank you! I learned some great tips!
That's great! So glad to hear!
Love Sulky's products. what size letter did you use ? I have tried 5x7 4x6, they all look really big.
Thank you for sharing, can i use freezer paper on the back?
Sulky Totally Stable is a better choice than freezer paper. It's made for machine embroidery and won't dull your needle.
That was great!! Thank you!
What size monograms do you use for the bath towel and the hand towel?
Hi Vonnie - that is like most things monogrammed, personal choice. Generally speaking, though, a bath towel would look lovely with a 4 to 5 inch monogram. There are, of course, frames you can stitch around them, knock-down stitches underneath them, and intertwined monograms of 2 or 3 letters. For a hand towel, 3 tp 3-1/2" is pretty. There are no rules. It's truly personal preference. Very often we fall in love with a particular monogram and most are offered in numerous sizes. Designs by Juju www.designsbyjuju.com has an incredible selection of monograms and frames.
Great video ! Thanks !
You are very welcome! Thanks for watching!
Thank you. It looks great. Please would you tell me where the monogram came from
Catherine Ardern Hi Catherine, the monogram I used on the hand towel was a built in monogram from the embroidery machine. There are some super monogram web sites out there so I hope you will be able to find something comparable. Thank you for watching Sulky videos. ellen osten
Are there written instructions in addition to the video ?
Great Video!!! If possible Could you tell me what font you are using? And why rayon thread? Thank you
I'm sorry - I'm not sure what font, but I will look into that. We used Rayon thread because of the richness of the color. Also, Sulky Rayon is color-fast so it's safe to use on towels, just don't use bleach or optical brighteners.
nice vedio
Is there a difference between the Totally Stable and the Sticky+ ?
Hi Sharon - Although both are tear-away stabilizers, Totally Stable has just a light tack that is activated when ironed onto the wrong side of your garment. It is re-positionable, too. It also can become loose when handled a lot, but it will re-iron down several times. Sticky+ on the other hand has a pressure sensitive adhesive and a release sheet (not unlike the sticky shelf paper we used to use back in the day). You can hoop the Sticky+ with the release sheet on and score the release sheet with a pin and peel off. Then pat your garment into place over it. The stick is much greater with Sticky+ than with Totally Stable, and allows for "hoopless" embroidery. Sticky+ should be removed within an hour or so of application. If you have further questions, please contact me at patti.lee@sulky.com.
@@pattilee5964 Got it! Thanks, Patti, for the quick response!
Beautiful :)
Excellent!!
can you please tell me where and what is the font you used.
Hi Ellen - I'm so sorry this took so long. I thought we might be able to determine the source of the font, but we have not. I asked Ellen Osten and she couldn't remember where it came from. She remembered the the E and the decorative scrolls were two separate designs. You might want to post a picture on one of the embroidery Facebook pages. People in those groups can find anything or certainly something similar. I took a screen shot of it from the video but I can't post it here. I'll be glad to send it to you if you want to drop me a note at patti.lee@sulky.com.
Hi I’m Bonnie Zeggert
Can I use 505 Temporary Adhesive Spray?
We don't recommend using that. We recommend using KK 2000 Temporary Spray Adhesive, which you can find here: www.sulky.com/item/sulky-kk2000-temporary-spray-adhesive-42-oz-120g Sulky KK 2000 is the only SAFE Temporary Spray Adhesive on the market that contains NO dangerous flammable gas propellants.
Wow, all those products make for one expensive towel. Thought I might buy an embroidery machine but after seeing all the products and threads I say forget it.
Go ahead and find out how much it will cost to have that embroidery done for you. I found them to be very expensive.
