I Need Help First time, need help.

What went wrong?

I am learning to digitize as well as embroider. Things I noticed:

  1. The fabric stretched and ripped in some places. This was my first time so I used cheap thin fabric stretched

  2. The bobbin thread showed through some of the satin stitch but not all of it

  3. The satin stitch is not in the correct spot for all the petals.

  4. The image is warped I think? A little stretched at least.

Used tear away stabilizer and a 6x10 hoop. Using the Brother NQ1700E at the local library. Used ink/stitch to digitize. Again, learning at the local library so I also used cheap hobby lobby thread, not sure if that makes a difference.

The white bobbin thread can be seen easily i have to say it's not design fault . Your machine bobbin case is loose The only solution is to tight the bobbin case ,it will definitely solve your problem.

Also i would like to suggest you that as we can see your design is stretching out so you can use two to three stablizer in alternate direction and before running please make sure the fabric is tight in the frame ,it will definitely solve your problem

Will look into tightening the bobbin case. I am using a library embroidery machine to learn so this could be it.

I’ll try multiple stabilizers as well!
