I use that plastic to trace my sewing patterns so I don’t have to cut them. That way I can have all the sizes available without having to buy multiple copies of the same pattern. It’s way more durable than the tissue paper.
I like this idea. I use tracing paper but the plastic is definitely more durable. The tracing paper I use is thin and easily tears. Thanks for sharing this tip!!!
I just found your video for the first time. You did an awesome job explaining each step, and I'm so glad you did it on a multi needle and a single needle flat bed embroidery machine. I plan to add your video to a list for my students when I teach my patch embroidery class so they can have another option. By the way, I will personally be visiting Home Depot. Thank you for a wonderful video!
Hi Tracy! Glad you like the video! Please do share the video and the channel. I love sharing information and teaching folks how to do things! Happy Sewing and Embroidering!
I always learn when I watch you videos, you are the best. Love how you explain and not afraid of trying different methods and materials. Awesome - thank you Jeanette.
I can’t believe I hadn’t seen this video of yours until now. Thanks for showing making the patch on the plastic. I don’t think I would have ever thought of doing that. I love using Merrowly and the fill stitch. Thanks for the video; you do a great job!
One of the best videos about embroidering directly on plastic. Very helpful for a beginner like me. I have to find a similar kind of plastic sheet, because there is no HDX available in germany. Thanks for making his awesome video
You are a great teacher, please do more embrillance videos cause I’m having a reallly hard time figuring it out. I have a 6 needle and 10 needle and a single needle.
Great Job!!! You didn't do anything wrong you technically are suppose to take the paper off. You can either send it or without to the customers. I'm new to the embroidery and I'm loving it, also learning different techniques to makes patches myself.
I enjoyed the video,, so much more knowledge on my plate now I love the in-depth process that you do although I don’t have that program that you used I’ll have to find another way to do it with that plastic, thanks again appreciate all you do****Marian****🙋♀
Hey Jeanette I was watching your video again . I Noticed that you use the round spool cap. There is another spool cap that looks like a short tube. It has a hole in the middle so it slides inside your thread spool and your thread does not get caught. Look in the little bag that came with your machine.
I love love ur videos so informative very detailed. I also wanted to ask if u have a video about teaching u how to embroider a cap on ur 10 needle machine . I have been looking for detail video because I have never used to cap hoop . Thank u love And also I know u have embrilliance but there are different softwares to buy which one is the best like for patches all knockdown stitches . Thank u ❤️💕🌸
Hi Xenia. I can definitely do a video on how to make caps on the 10 needle machine. Also I just learn that there is an embroidery software out there by DIME that is Free. You may want to check it out.
Blessed evening, Jeanette I have a question, its bean a year since you tried the plastic sheeting for patches. What is your opinion on it? Dose it last after washing and drying, and can you iron it without the plastic melting? Did you like the substitution for the polytwill? Thank you for sharing your knowledge and helping us at the same time. 💯🏆🥰🙏
Hi. It depends on how you are going to use the patch. If you are placing it on a hat it’s good. If it’s for clothes or something that is going to be washed a lot use the poly twill.
@@BoricuaSewingCrafts Thank you for your prompt response. I was thinking to use it on key fobs but wasn't sure since i may self haven done key fobs before either 😅
Hello, I am writing from Turkey. We don't have a video here on drawing embroidery patterns as clear and precise as yours. Can you please help me with this embroidery drawing or send me the link of this embroidery drawing program? Thank you.
HI Cyn. You are so right! No stabilizer. The plastic is so much cheaper! I would only do this on Embroidery files where the design is completely filled with stitches. You would be wasting the felt because you won't see it.
HI Vivian. Yes I agree. Poly Twill is a great choice. I can be expensive thou. But it does provide a better quality patch. I use the hot knife for my edges too!
Will this plastic work if your using a twill fabric also for the patches? I would think..but just checking to see if you tried that as well..I do like it with the fill stitches..tks
Hi Linda. The plastic will work for embroidery designs that are completely filled. If you have a patch design that is not filled then I recommend using the twill fabric.
This is great. After watching it, I realized that I needed to edit my pdf on Patches (Step 9, see below). I'd like to be able to make the Patch using an irregular Border, like you did in your first video. But when doing that, it would nice if we could add the Heat and Bond while it is still hooped. So, I was wondering if you can try this from Step 9 of my pdf: 9. After stitching the Design only....and before the final Satin/Merrow, here is Heat Seal Option1: a. With the Paper on….Glue and/or Press H&B Lite (or Fuse-n-Bond by Alltstitch) to back of Hoop, but only in the Center of the Design so that you can trim the H&B Lite. OR You can Tape the H&B Lite to the back of the Hoop. (Note: H&B can even be precut. I use a Cricut Maker.) b. Stitch it down with an Outline (Your Placement Stitch). c. Remove from Machine, not from Hoop. d. Trim H&B Lite close to Edge (unless you used a Precut). e. Remove paper from H&B Lite. 2. Stitch your 4mm wide Satin or Merrow. Jeanette, can you try this in a video for us?
I prefer to put it one after the patch is embroidered. Would not use the lite. It won't stick as well after washing. Lite is good for the fabric used for applique but not patches. Patches are on the heavy side so I don't think the lite will work. I noticed a lot of folks that do the patches use the ultra and the fabric tac glue. They all seem to apply this after the patch is completely stitched out.
HI Marsha. You will need to use another patch style. This is the merrowly style patches. I have another video that explains this. Here is the link: ruclips.net/video/ARHdfEBe-os/видео.html
Section 37:07 comparing both patches, why is the white bobbin thread around the circle showing through the blue thread? Letter L is solid blue, but the blue circle is not. Thanks.
That's how the design was made. Those areas are usually filled when the patch is sewn on the garment. I think the edge needs to be more solid. I don't like the white showing thru. If you have the fill in stitch and the edge the same color you won't see this. I am not a fan of the satin stitch design they used.
I'm going to do a video on the edging of patches. There are different styles. And you need to pay attention to them if you are looking for a specific look. I'm sure that video will help lots of folks. Thanks so much for your question!
@@BoricuaSewingCrafts Agree. Don’t like when the top is no a solid color. True, it may also be the design pattern poorly made. I was going to say thread tension, but the letter came out good. So, it must be where the design file was purchased. Either way, great job demonstrating this new techniques!!
I suggest you add a comment to not use plastic backed patches on work uniforms. Some fluids should not get on plastic and electric sparks are dangerous on plastic. But oh, I wish I could use this method for work uniforms. It is fantastic.
To tighten up the plastic run your heat gun over it...works great
Thanks! I have a heat gun, I never thought of using it for this!!! Appreciate the tip!!!

God I’m glad I found you “ back stitch” 😊
Me too!
I'm a beginner. So far I gave trouble matching up the satin stitch with the edge of fabric that is already cut. I have more to learn. Great video!
Don’t give up! You will make a lot of errors as you are learning. I did! Enjoy the learning process. Before you know it you will be an expert!

Well this was fun!! Love thinking outside the box. Well done!!
Wouldn’t this stuff also work for Felties? Sure could save on stabilizer costs!!
HI Cyn. You are so right! No stabilizer. The plastic is so much cheaper! I would only do this on Embroidery files where the design is completely filled with stitches. You would be wasting the felt because you won't see it.

Here is the link for it! Thanks for letting me know it wasn't in my store. I have to include it. Glad you like the video! amzn.to/3AQHUJo
I prefer poly twill. It doesn't fade over time
And I can use a hot knife to clean up the edges

@@BoricuaSewingCrafts ohhh, I didn't realize you were using the Ultra. That makes total sense now. Ty sew much for clarifying this.
Does the se1900 offer a fill stitch without an extra program?
No. You will need to purchase an embroidery software to make modifications to designs to include adding a fill.
How did the plastic not melt when you ironed it? And when its ironed on wont ir burn and melt the plastic?
The plastic is covered by the bobbin thread.
Does the thread make the white background no white fabric
You can do that. But I would recommend getting white twill for the patch. This way you save on thread.
Can you make your satin stitch around the edge more dense so you don’t see the white through it?
HI Marsha. You will need to use another patch style. This is the merrowly style patches. I have another video that explains this. Here is the link: ruclips.net/video/ARHdfEBe-os/видео.html
@@BoricuaSewingCrafts thank you for responding! Watched the video, now I understand more. I have different software and will have to try it!
