 | Machine Embroidery on Difficult Materials Ref: Fdd14d3
Provides solutions for successful embroidery on 19 materials, including a design for each.
- Bonus CD features the 19 designs provided in twelve different formats to suit a wide range of embroidery machines.
- Digitized designs provide default settings for use on ordinary fabrics so the reader can compare adjustments to use their own designs on difficult materials.
The variables in machine embroidery are almost infinite – finding the best combination of needle, thread, stabilizer, hooping method, stitch underlay, stitch length and density – and this is just for ordinary fabrics! Author Deborah Jones simplifies this process for readers, providing a wealth of information to help them refine the variables to get great results for nineteen of the most difficult fabrics to machine embroider. The reader will learn the “logic” of adjusting the variables for any difficult material, enabling them to explore machine embroidery with their own designs.
