Remove embroidery from uniform clothes

Most people have to pay for their uniforms. And when they leave a company, they generally don't wear the clothes because it has a company logo and name on it.
This video explains how I remove embroidery from clothes

Thanks for this! I ended up using my hair clippers which are essentially the same thing, worked like a dream! In about 15 minutes!

You literally saved my life Angela....thanks. you address things that no one else does.

[@JudithTurnerakagenie]

Not sure if you mean me. My name is Judith

[@Rally1ification]

Judith Turner. I'm so sorry.....why did I rename you? Yes I mean you. Thank you so much.

I use an electric (battery powered) bead trimmer instead. Cost was $10 at a Family Dollar store compared to $100 for the Peggy Stitch Eraser.

[@silinusvers]

thank you, you just saved me from tossing $300 in FR clothing with my old company logos,

[@JudithTurnerakagenie]

Fantastic. It works so well, and like you say, you can save expensive clothing that you would not generally wear because of the logo.

[@elainemartin5784]

Thank you so much. This was an amazingly useful tutorial. I am learning so much from you. Do you have any tutorials on taking in a heavily beaded dress, please. I was recently asked to do this and my nerve failed me when I saw the price tag on the dress. The thought of damaging the dress gave me nightmares but I would love to know how to do it for future reference. Thank you again for generously passing on your amazing skills.

[@JudithTurnerakagenie]

Hi Elaine I do have tutorials on taking in beaded dresses, but these are exclusive to Magic Circle. People pay an annual fee to view videos that cover more extensive areas of alteration.

[@TheSplendidus]

Thank you Judith! you are bringing so much value with your videos (planning to become a member of your altering website this year)

[@caz-official]

Amazing! Thank you so much for this gem - I would never have thought of using what is essentially clippers! Genius :-D

[@cutflower36]

Oh my goodness. I have been asked about removing embroidery, I told them I did my think you could. Only way I no of is to use a seam ripper. Thank you

[@JudithTurnerakagenie]

seam ripper takes forever

[@KingSatyr]

great idea, i even saved 99$ by using my hair cutting machine to do it LOL! total cost: 0$

[@JudithTurnerakagenie]

fabulous well done

[@slonik0207]

wron where did you buy the erazer in Australia?

[@JudithTurnerakagenie]

It is available in most haberdashery shops. I think I bought that one at a Craft Show

[@yvonnemcnealy4544]

Is this a shaver she is using?

[@JudithTurnerakagenie]

It is a special machine specifically to remove embroider that I am using. Some people have said they have tried shavers and they work. I have not tried them. Judith

[@louisecass1621]

Would this work on a school jumper?

[@JudithTurnerakagenie]

Wow. that is the question isn't it? I have not tried it on a jumper and to be honest I don't think I would. Wool is so delicate if you cut it. So my reply would have to be "No I don;t think so". But I haven't tried it. If I get an old jumper some time I will try.

[@louisecass1621]

Judith Turner , ok Thank you I wouldn't risk it otherwise.

[@elizarock655]

I've done it on a really expensive polar fleece that I got on sale in the school colour I needed. I used a razor and it took ages but it worked. it did take out some of the pile b

[@taraiza878]

Thanks Judith 💜

[@LinhLam0502]

You're a genius!

[@bgregg55]

that looks just like a $20 hair trimmer.

[@MrRustyBob]

Looks like a beard trimmer to me.

[@JudithTurnerakagenie]

Very similar yes....

[@joycelondon1639]

Thanks very helpful

[@sampleworks9432]

Great idea!

[@zaibarif7091]

very nice

[@seth-bullock]

This is dumb. Yeah lets pay $25 to remove embroidery from a $20 shirt. That's real smart.

[@JudithTurnerakagenie]

Thank you for the comment Mycle. I agree that it is unlikely someone would pay $25 to have a logo removed when they can purchase a shirt for $20. I imagine only people who really wanted the shirt for some reason would do this. Perhaps it has sentimental value. Who knows. But what one person perceives as illogical, another may see it as a big win.
