I'm pretty new to embroidery and there is so much to learn, I feel really lost sometimes! Hopefully I can learn to digitize too. I really appreciate all the videos to help. I learned to sew a few years ago watching KZbin and now embroidery. I'm so excited to have found your videos! I plan on watching all I can that pertain to me! As well as join your FB group. I love how you explain things so clearly! Thanks for giving your time to help! Have a wonderful day!

for this video I am using the Brother Dream Machine 2, and his name is McDreamy :)

[@kathyloftin2609]

What are the pros and cons for choosing to either attach with HBL or E6000 glue? I am wondering if the fabric will lay as flat with both methods and if the patch will stay attached as well with either method. Thanks so much for the instructive video.

[@abbeyhamblin9555]

Thank you for the tips on making a patch. Do you add any type of adhesive back to help attach them to shirt?

[@OMLembroidery]

not usually for a shirt - but if I had to, I would use some fusible stabilizer and iron it on very well.

I’m a newbie! What are the pros and cons of embroidering onto a blank patch vs making one completely from scratch? I need to have quite a few made.

[@ansiaaa]

about the bobbin, I'm starting to make embroideries with multiple colors... do I have to change to bobbin every time I change thread color? or is there a rule about what color of bobbin to use? black, white, same color as the fabric, ... ?

[@billmorris1590]

You can usually use white bobbin thread, unless the embroidery is to be seen on both sides of your item.

[@wilsonb6079]

What type of software do you use to create the design? :)

Go Team Hatch and I want a pair of those scissors. Do you know who makes them? Seems like they get closer than applique scissors.

[@OMLembroidery]

I think those ones are from Gunold...they are my favorite scissors. It's all in the way you hold the scissors and the fabric that makes it a nice clean cut

What kind of foot do you use on your machine t

[@nicolassmith1278]

Hi pretty lady. How are you doing today???

[@just_perplexed]

Ok I need some serious help here lol. Some backstory: I sort of taught myself how to machine embroider patches. One day I bought a machine and just started. I did some research, like what materials to use, but not so much about the process. Flash forward a year and I sell 50-60 patches online. Anyways, I recently had a “come to Jesus” moment and noticed my patches look a little different from other patches for sale online and it’s got me nervous. So I hoop both fabric and stabilizer and just stitch the design and trim the fabric and stabilizer after. It leaves a thin edge of fabric to which I take my seam ripper and pull the remaining fabric outwards and trim the frays. All my patches have satin borders with a thin edge of fabric. Now all the patches I’ve seen online don’t have fabric outside of the satin borders and generally look much cleaner than mine. Is the way I do it accepted (like an alternative process)? Or is it frowned upon and I need to relearn how to make patches the right way? I can’t seem (oh man I really wanted to do a pun there) to find the answer online. Thanks!

[@billmorris1590]

Hi Sue! Love and appreciate your many how to videos! Your videos have answered so many of my questions!! I've been embroidering a couple years now and just created my first patches, question, I've purchased cotton twill as my base, should I wash that fabric first before embroidering it? Do I need to worry about it shrinking or the colors bleeding or fading? Thank You!

[@ServeLearnTeach]

Bill Morris I see your question was not answered. I always always prewash fabrics, then press before using. It’s best to not use fabric softener, because for some projects the residue can affect performance of the final project, i.e. adhesives, or allergies of wearer.

[@homelysmile6483]

thank you I am so happy today. I was helplessly trying to figure out how to create patches that is professional looking without the outer side fabric flay away. I think I did it wrongly but sewing first and then do the cutting. Now that I know cut only the fabric first, sew and then final cut the white interface.

[@OMLembroidery]

You're very welcome!

[@amymoore437]

Hey Sue! Just watched your video on applique. Question: Do you think cutting fabric by hand does as good a job as those expensive ScanNCut machines? If you use a scan and cut machine, what brand/model do you recommend? Thanks so much for all your videos. Very helpful!!

[@OMLembroidery]

I don't have a scan and cut but I do have a Cricut Maker and the Silhouette 3. I don't use them often for applique, only if I am doing a ton of one thing. It's 6 of one, 1/2 of another really. If you pre-cut everything, then you spend time setting it up, cutting and cleaning mats, and then more time setting it down within the lines. If you cut at the machine, then it takes a few minutes to trim, but you know that your fabric is properly in the lines. It all depends on what you prefer - people love one way or another so the opinion varies.

Wish you could show on the screen how and where to pick out the design or patches.....

[@OMLembroidery]

what do you mean "pick out the design or patches"? I digitized this in Hatch and then stitched it out.

Is Hatch the name of embroidery software? I am a newbie, I have a Brother Stellaire & desperately trying to learn how to use it, my Scan n Cut, & PE Design 11.

[@tamihalvorson1966]

also, silly question, how does a person attach the patch?

heat and bond, sewing or patch attach glue

[@iLive2Ride76]

How do you digitize patches in embird? Do you use the built in function? This patch did some more stitches than the embird built in appliqué does.

[@OMLembroidery]

I digitize patches like an applique. all you need are placement stitches, zig zag and a nice thick satin stitch. I created the Team patches in E4

[@carenallen5841]

Not the best design.stars are hidden ..not the best layout ....still good example on what to or what not to do

[@OMLembroidery]

they are not stars, they are fireworks. To each their own....

[@margaretrose2167]

Good to see it although I jumped all the stitching. Nice internal design. As a non-professional., I would have re done the original zig zag as it showed on the bottom. I do not think the extra stitching on the edge improved the patch. Good educational video.
