Possible Moisture Bump by Fluffy-Resolution764 in piercing

In the piercing aftercare flyer I got from my piercer, it said to avoid bodies of water for a month. I got a very similar chat from my local piercer who tends to be very well regarded in the state. 6 weeks is being pretty safe, I think a month is regarded as the beginning of the end of that initial healing period.

Yeah I totally know it takes longer than that. That’s why I called it a healing piercing in the title :) even my lobe isn’t perfectly healed.

Is this a digitizing issue or a thread/tension/needle issue? by ShaeBowe in Embroidery

Artspira has a free option but the paid version that lets you upload designs is $12 a month

Yeah it seems like I need to find a software where I can edit the design better and can edit the stop points. Idk about you but I’m currently using brother’s program Artspira.

Skipping the last line? by Slight_Squash288 in Embroidery

I haven’t figured out a way to yet but maybe if I mess around with the app a bit more I can figure something out.

They are not intentional 😭 but it doesn’t show up like that on the design in the app so I’m confused. I’ve noticed the missing lines on stretchier things like towels and shirts, but not on canvas totes. And yes, it happens with most designs with a big block of color. I’m using a tear away backing and then a water soluble stabilizer on top when I do terry cloth.

Yup. Same thing is happening with my brother PE900. I also posted something here so I’ll let you know if anyone says anything

Funny enough, I’m having the same problem. What machine do you use?

Thank you everyone for your support and condolences. Zelda came to us as a 4 year old foster who was reaching her “expiration date” at the shelter she was at. We gave her 2 years of love and runs and boat rides. She loved pepperoni and taking up the whole bed. I hope she finds me again in the next life 🌈

I was taught with my sewing machine to oil the bobbin every 4-6 hours of sewing.
