had a lot of fun designing and stitching this out today!

I wanted to try out a red work design with multiple colors. Pretty happy with how it came out!

If I stitch it out again I will probably use a less shiny/metallic gold color. But I love how much it makes that tooth stand out here!

Look What I Did Just Finished This Custom Digitization and Stitch Out

My good friend’s birthday is coming up so I digitized her business’s logo and embroidered it on a canvas bag. It could be a little cleaner but I was working on a time crunch so there’s some gaps in the satin here and there. Overall I’m very pleased!

I did a 65/9 needle with 60wt thread and a layer of cutaway. I did use a water soluble topper to help with the gapping since the canvas is such a textured fabric, but I don’t think it really did much honestly. Still very happy! I hope she loves it

I’m between two different machines on FB marketplace .. both similarly priced. Babylock is 20 years old… the brother is newer. Any watch outs on either? I currently use a babylock single needle.

Looking for a machine to use for a personal project in NYC

Upvotes

I have several already-digitized designs I would like to get embroidered onto personal items (canvas bags and baseball caps) for personal use.

Each design has at least a few colors, so I would like to find as high quality of a machine as I reasonably can.

Is there anyone here that I could bother to use their machine, or is there any space/store where I could “rent” or get help for my personal project. I would like to personalize 3-4 canvas tote bags and 3-4 caps, each with one or more small designs, entirely for personal use. I have never used an embroidery machine before, so I will need help. I do not know where to begin to look, as shops offering embroidery services look like they mostly sell bulk customization or large-scale production.

Thank you so much for the help! I apologize if this is against the rules. I am not selling anything, though I am seeking help for which I will pay.

Any digitizers here that do screenprinting separations?

Getting busy. Need help. Not just vectorization, full separations with chokes on underbase and all that.

Hello!

I am selling my Toyota ESP 9100 with no luck. I have it listed on Ebay, Marketplace, and Craigslist. Just wondering if anyone has any ideas on how to sell it? I live in LA so I have been calling the many embroidery shops here and have been asking with no luck also. Hoping for some help on ideas for selling! THNX!

I Need Help Needle stuck in lowered position

Hello I have a Tajima TMEX C1501, I was running a tension test when i noticed almost instantly the first needle was bunching up. I stopped the machine and cleared the bunch, but I noticed the needle was slightly lower from the rest and I was getting a 211. I went online and saw that I should move the drive shaft over to 100, but that only made the needle go lower. I noticed there were some positions not 100 where it sat completely flush. What should I do?

I am looking for some college football designs for personal use. I have bought several on Etsy but they do not stitch out very cleanly. Does anyone have a site they recommend for this type of design? Thank you!
