EMBROIDERING Embroidering attractive finishes Refer to the table below and the "RELATED CHART OF SEWING FABRICS, THREADS AND NEEDLES" to use in order to obtain attractive sewing and embroidery finishes. Pattern slippages may occur when using different fabric thicknesses or types of stabilizers. Be sure to carry out a test sewing beforehand to check. FABRIC THREAD When embroidering fabrics, attach a non-woven type of stabilizer fabric. * It is recommended that you use a special stabilizer fabric for embroidering which can be torn off around the design when the project is finished.
