Machine Embroidering Supplies
As expected, a switch from hand embroidery to machine embroidery means additional supplies. To mention some are the machine itself, the computer software, and various digital patterns.
• Embroidering Machine
The machine you’ll get, particularly the new ones, contains basic patterns you can use. If you wish for a creative and more unique design, the net has lots of patterns to choose from. Some can be customized so you can put your personal touch. Just don’t forget though to bring with you the model name and number of your machine so would be able to choose the patterns that work on it.
• Editing Software
So you now have your design file. The next thing you can do is to edit or alter it to make your own design. Among the software editing programs to choose from are:
Digitilizing: This software includes stitch, and line types as well as border frame, and texture styles.
Lettering: Such software comes with choices of fonts and lettering styles as well as underlay types.
Other important features of software editing programs include display hoop, design locator, on-screen rulers, and lock stitches and trims.
• Needles and Thread
These supplies are less expensive but are really important to achieve the embroidery project you have in mind. The thread used for machine embroidery is a special thread that’s different from the ones used for hand embroidery. Though available in various sizes, the 40-weight needle is the commonly-used thread.
Such thread is also offered in various fiber choices ranging from natural to synthetic. Rayon, polyester, silk and cotton are among thread choices available in the market.
Before you went off to shop, be sure to bring with you a list of these necessary embroidery supplies because these are the stuff that will help you create quality embroidery result. Remember: with the right supplies, you will be able to do away with the usual embroidery problems.
