Embroidery Machine
Purchasing an embroidery machine will bring your projects to the next level but now you may be wondering, "what do I do now?" Embroidery machines can be used to create beautiful patterns on fabrics. It's easy to master the art of using an embroidery machine but you will need to understand some fundamentals before you can use your new machine to its fully potential.
The most obvious, but often overlooked, suggestion is to read the handbook! Your machine is unique and there may be some idiosyncrasies about your machine that can only be discovered by reading the handbook. Your handbook will show you the correct way to thread the machine, put in the bobbin, attach your hoop, and maintenance instructions. Your embroidery machine will need to be cleaned and oiled occasionally. After you've perused that riveting literature, you may still have some questions. At this website, we're here to help!
The first step is to decide what exactly you want to sew. You machine may come with free patterns but don't feel limited to these options. Google has a wealth of patterns available for free or low cost. Be specific about your wording when searching for patterns for best results.

As a beginner, it is recommended to start with easy to work with materials. For example, light weight and knit fabrics can be difficult for those just learned to work with their machine. Choose stable fabrics like homespun or calico. This will save you the frustration of learning about your machine and the peculiarities of the fabric at the same time.

One final piece of advice is to learn how to hoop up correctly and which stabilisers are best for your machine. The most highly recommended stabiliser is "cutaway," to be used on unstable materials like knitted fabrics or stretchy materials. When using stable fabrics like woven or calico, utilise "tearaway." "Washaway" is generally recommended to lace or projects that involve 3D incorporation. Check us out at http://embroiderymachineworld.com/ for more details on this venture.
When stiching, an adequate stabiliser need to fit into your hoop with your project as well. Be careful when placing it into the machine, taking care that there are no other parts of the item in the way of the needle. Taking care of these considerations, you are ready to start your first project. Embroidering is a rewarding hobby and your new embroidery machine will help you add speed and quality to your projects. Understanding the fundamentals is important if you want to be able to stitch accurately.
