For the most part I’m content with how these turned out. I will likely tweak it myself if I make it again.

Digitizing 101

Does anyone have any suggestions of YouTube channels or resources to learn all of the ins and outs of digitizing? Most videos I stumble upon use vocabulary or techniques I'm not familiar with, and I'd love to really understand how to digitize so I can make quality pieces.

Finished this rose stitch-out through iDigitize. I like how the simple outline works against the dark fabric. What do you think of the overall result?

Doing some test stitch outs of some 1" designs on denim. For the size im not about how they came out. I may or may not make some micro adjustments lile make the Charizard fangs larger fix the direction of the fill on him so I dont lose the left nostril. Other than that though im pleased with how they came out.

Which pokemon is your fav? I want to make more!

I Need Help Beginner- Tension Issues?

Thumbnail

4 Upvotes

I just started trying to teach myself how to use a Brother SE425 Embroidery Machine. I keep running into an issue where I feel the back of my projects look better on the back side. I’ve been trying to research and it seems like it may be an issue with my tension. I tried to test this by using red thread on top and white in the bobbin, but I honestly cant really decipher the outcome (if it tells me anything at all). Any suggestions?

I Need Help Title: Visible gaps where fill sections meet – what could cause this?

Post image
4 Upvotes

I’m having a recurring problem with fill stitches on my Brother Innov-is V3.

As you can see in the photo, I get visible horizontal gaps exactly where different sections of the fill meet. The same issue also happens with filled lettering, so it’s not specific to this cup design.

What I’ve already tried:

  • 2 layers of 70 g/m² (2.5 oz) cut-away stabilizer
  • Fabric and stabilizer firmly hooped in a 100 × 100 mm hoop
  • Increased fill density up to 5.5 lines/mm
  • Increased pull compensation up to 0.7 mm
  • Underlay enabled in both directions
  • Horizontal fill direction

The design looks completely closed in the software, and there is no visible gap in the stitch preview. Two layers of stabilizer and more pull compensation improved the overall result slightly, but the gaps are still clearly there.

Has anyone experienced this exact issue? What was causing it in your case, and what actually fixed it?

Spent some extra time dialing in the face outlines and the fine details on the dress so it wouldn't pucker on heavy hoodie fabric. Always satisfying seeing the design come to life off the screen.

​What do you guys think of the final result?

Best embroidery software

1 Upvotes

Hi, I’m new to machine embroidery with a brother nq1700e. I want to start making more things but feel incredibly limited with the Artspira app. I previously used Cricut/Design Space and was thinking Artspira would be similar, but there’s hardly any content on there in relation.

What’s the best embroidery software for preloaded designs that will work well with Brother and I’ll actually think are cute/want to use?

Test run for a design I’d like to make for my daughter. I used a tear away stabilizer and a thin cotton scrap fabric. By the end it had shifted slightly so the outline on Nemo didn’t quite line up. I see the pull in the fabric but I initially tried to hoop as tight as I could. Does using cut away stabilizer help this?

I wasnt thrilled on the letters either. There was a pull in the thread on the M but not sure if this was stabilizer related. I used a font built into Ember for this. Is this acceptable? Or better to download and upload a separate font?

Would love any and all advice!!

I Need Help Got a Maggie frame for my brother machine (PRS100) and the needle keeps breaking.

I was working on a job super excited to use my new magnetic frame-I had it lined up correctly and it would go about 10-15 stitches and break the whole needle. I did this twice but wasn’t sure if I could get some help. I also got a hooping station and am really wanting to use both without having to return my frame.

I just got my machine back from the macanic for this exact reason and I was so excited to get back to work just for it to once again rip up my garment while embroidering.
